v t e Physiology of balance and hearing
Hearing	General Auditory system Bone conduction Otoacoustic emission Tullio phenomenon Pathway inner ear: Hair cells → Spiral ganglion → Cochlear nerve VIII → pons: Cochlear nucleus (Anterior, Dorsal) → Trapezoid body → Superior olivary nuclei → midbrain: Lateral lemniscus → Inferior colliculi → thalamus: Medial geniculate nuclei → cerebrum: Acoustic radiation → Primary auditory cortex
Balance	General Vestibular system Pathway inner ear: Vestibular nerve VIII → pons: Vestibular nuclei (Medial vestibular nucleus, Lateral vestibular nucleus) cerebellum: Flocculonodular lobe spinal cord: Vestibulospinal tract (Medial vestibulospinal tract, Lateral vestibulospinal tract) thalamus: Ventral posterolateral nucleus cerebrum: Vestibular cortex Vestibulo-oculomotor fibers
