title: [The Modeling of Human Visual ERPs Sources in the Task of Line Orientation Identification].
abstract: The high-resolution EEG was taken from 35 healthy subjects (16 males, 19 females) in the task of identification of cardinal (horizontal, vertical) and oblique (45°, 135°) orientations. The integrated approach was developed and used for the ERPs analysis. It includes the modeling of the distributed intracranial dipole sources of the ERPs' components by the weighted Minimum Norm Estimates (wMNE) method, the combination of distributed intracranial dipole sources with the M RI data and the statistical analysis of the current density. It was shown that a multiple network of brain structures was active during the early stage of analysis of line orientation. It includes not only primary striate visual area, but also the parietal, temporal and prefrontal corticies. The new data was obtained about the participation of structures, responsible for navigation (parahippocampal gyrus and entorhinal area) in the line orientation detection. For the first time the gender-related differences in the organization ofthe line detection network were described. The obtained data provides a significant supplement to the knowledge of the mechanisms of the orientation sensitivity and assumes that orientation sensitivity plays an important role in the navigation.
