[The subsystems of the spatial-temporal organization of cortical potentials and their role in EEG spatial synchronization].

: Studying successive topograms of potentials made it possible to reveal different types (subsystems) of the spatio-temporal organization of human and animal cortical electrical activity, which covered significant cortical surface. The dominance of the inversion of the sagittal potential gradient in the topograms of the resting state or complicated relief forms in the active states co-existed with oscillations of the mean level of topogram potentials, the contribution of which to the spatial EEG synchronization changed depending on the functional state of the brain. The role of the ratio between these subsystems was shown and the influence of this ratio was demonstrated on the spatial synchronization of cortical potentials in experiments with 11 rabbits (in the course of their adaptation to the environment and learning) and examination of 50 healthy adult subjects (during motor task performance and elaboration of verbal set). The spatial synchronization of cortical potentials was found to have a complex structure, which was determined by the ratio between the effects of subsystems of the spatio-temporal organization of cortical potentials.
