There is a complex functional organization of the central auditory system from the brainstem to primary and associative auditory cortices. Functional neuroimaging has been used to visualize and confirm the spatial distribution of brain activation in temporal areas for the processing of simple acoustic stimuli. Brain activity is much more complex for words, and different networks can be recruited when phonological, lexical and semantic levels of processing are engaged.
从中脑到初级和联合听觉皮层，中枢听觉系统存在复杂的功能组织。功能神经影像学已被用于可视化并确认颞叶区域中处理简单听觉刺激时大脑激活的空间分布。对于单词而言，大脑活动要复杂得多，当涉及语音、词汇和语义处理水平时，会调用不同的神经网络。
