[Analysis of electroencephalogram formation in terms of the XX "EEG-quantum" concept].

Mechanism of EEG formation was studied in terms of "EEG quantum". The "quantum" approach gives the same results as that based on the cell dipole concept. EEG is created by partially correlated activity of vertically oriented pyramide neurons of the cortex; the value of correlation coefficient between EEG of two points of the cortex and its dependence on interelectrode distance are determined by an increased level of intercellular correlation in the cortex microvolumes by the value of intercellular correlation drop on the borders of these microvolumes and by the dimensions of these microvolumes. The advantage of the "quantum" approach lies in the fact that final expressions include the mean values of correlation coefficients between impulse currents generated by the cortical cells, i. e. the parameters which can be measured experimentally.
