Abstract

Noise-induced hearing loss results in significant changes throughout the auditory system. Significant changes in the distribution of characteristic frequencies are observed in the inferior colliculus (IC), medial geniculate nucleus (MG) and primary auditory cortex (A1), but only in A1 and MG are these changes thought to be due to plastic reorganisation. A growing body of evidence suggests that hearing loss and its accompanying neuronal changes are also involved in tinnitus. Thus, understanding the development of neuronal changes following noise-induced hearing loss may aid us in understanding the neural basis of tinnitus. We examined neuronal changes at three different levels of the auditory pathway and at different time-periods up to 7 months following exposure to a damaging, narrow band noise.
