EEG synchronization in seizures: facts and models.
In topographic studies of seizure patterns in the rabbit, the phenomenon of synchronization has turned out to be characterized by regular propagation of the potential fields underlying the raphoelements observed in the EEG: in most cases these potential fields describe circular paths within the cortex. Moreover, a multielectrode was developed to explore the different layers of the cortex simultaneously. Both approaches brought enough material to put forward a hypothesis on the origin and the maintenance of so-called synchronized activities.
