[Spatial localization of sources of slow EEG activity by the equivalent dipole method].

Coordinates and moments of equivalent sources of various kinds of slow activity--local, generalized and synchronous (delta- or theta-ranges) -- were estimated on a computer on the basis of a model of single equivalent dipole, by the method of the coordinates descent. Investigation of local delta-activity caused by a volume process in the brain shows that its localization coincides with the peripheral zone of the tumour. Localization of the delta-focus enables to indicate its position not only on the surface, but in the depth of the brain as well. The dipole localization method helps to specify the concept of "secondary" slow waves and to differentiate slow activity of total brain-, brain-stem and local nature.
