{{main|Trapezoid body}}

The [[trapezoid body]] is a bundle of [[decussation|decussating]] fibers in the ventral pons that carry information used for binaural computations in the brainstem. Some of these [[axon]]s come from the [[cochlear nucleus]] and [[decussation|cross over]] to the other side before traveling on to the [[superior olivary complex|superior olivary nucleus.]]  This is believed to help with [[sound localization|localization of sound]].<ref>{{Cite book |title=Encyclopedia of Clinical Neuropsychology |vauthors=Mendoza JE |date=2011 |publisher=Springer |isbn=978-0-387-79947-6 |veditors=Kreutzer JS, DeLuca J, Caplan B |location=New York |pages=2549 |chapter=Trapezoid Body |doi=10.1007/978-0-387-79948-3_807}}</ref>
