Abstract

In 11 subjects the dynamic localization (with 2-ms step) of the equivalent current dipole of alpha rhythm during travelling alpha waves was studied using one-dipole 3-layered spherical head model and MRI. The dipole was localized in the occipital cortex and during the development of a single alpha wave it shifted in one or another direction while dipole's moment revealed fan-like rotation mainly in sagittal and horizontal planes. The results obtained indicate changing localization of the alpha-rhythm source in the region corresponding to striate cortex. They seem to prove scanning hypothesis that is still under discussion.
