Import individual anatomy
Objectives: Import anatomy for CTF MEG tutorial.
Create protocol
Download bst_tutorial_somatotopy_ctf.zip file (Download section), and unzip it somewhere. Data description in the next tutorial.
Warning: Do NOT unzip it in the Brainstorm database or program directories. This package contains files in original file formats, and need to be imported through the interface to be processed with Brainstorm.
Create a new protocol called TutorialCTF with the following options:
- "No, use individual anatomy", because the individual subject anatomy is available
- "No, use one channel file per condition (MEG)", because we are going to process regular MEG data in the next tutorial
Create a new subject (let's keep the default name: Subject01)
Import MRI
Go to the Anatomy view of the protocol files (very first button in Brainstorm window toolbar).
Right click on subject node, and select menu "Import MRI..."
- Select file "TutorialCtf/Anatomy/01.mri".
