 note = {The central auditory pathway is more complicated than the visual and somatosensory pathways. First, sound information is received in the external and middle ear, and is transformed from an oscillating motion into electrical signals in the cochlea. This encoded auditory information reaches the ipsilateral cochlear nucleus in the pontomedullary junction. After being processed in the cochlear nucleus, most signals travel down through the trapezoid body to the contralateral superior olivary nucleus. The superior olivary nucleus plays an important role in binaural sound processing. This signal is then carried to the lateral lemniscus, the inferior colliculi in the midbrain, the medial geniculate body in the thalamic system, and the auditory cortex in the cerebral cortex. However, the function of each neuronal nucleus is unclear. We are still obtaining new information on the function of the central auditory pathway, but only from patients who exhibit localized damage and animal studies. We demonstrated three cases of central auditory disorder in this symposium. Further study will be required to clarify the mechanism of central auditory processing.},
