Tinnitus
It’s not just the auditory cortex that is affected when people get tinnitus.
Neuroscientists, using increasingly sophisticated brain scans, are finding that changes ripple out across the entire brain.

Each nerve hair is tuned to a particular frequency of sound and excites only certain neurons in the auditory cortex
. As a result, the neurons in the auditory cortex form what is known as a tone map.
The neurons at one end of the auditory cortex are tuned to low frequencies; the farther you go toward the other end, the higher the tuning of the neurons.
