The best results for source localization are obtained with an individual anatomy of each subject, that are processed to extract the cortex and the scalp surface. Unfortunately, scanning a subject in an MRI costs in time and money, and may not be available for the source analysis. In this case, it was already explained in the previous tutorials that you can use the default anatomy MNI/Colin27. But for subjects that have head shapes that are really different from Colin Holme's, the localization errors can be really big.

For this purpose, Brainstorms offers an intermediate solution: Creating a pseudo-individual anatomy based on the head points that were digitized with a magnetic tracking system before the MEG acquisition. Those points really represent the shape of the head of the subject, they can be used to scale and deform the Colin27 MRI and surfaces.

=== Prepare the subject ===
We are going to test that feature in the protocol ''TutorialNeuromag'', created in the tutorial [[Tutorials/TutMindNeuromag|Import and process Neuromag raw recordings]], because it contains a reasonable amount of head points, and it should be already in your database.

 1. Select protocol ''TutorialNeuromag'', and select the view "Functional data (sorted by subjects)"''
''
 1. Create a new subject "!SubjectWarp". Select the option "Yes, use default anatomy"
 1. Copy the channel file from ''Subject01/(Common files)'' to ''!SubjectWarp/(Common files)'': Use either the keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V, or the popup menus ''File > Copy/Paste''.

=== Check the MRI/MEG registration ===
This process is very sensitive to the initial position of the head points relatively to the scalp surface.

Use the digitized head points to create a pseudo-individual anatomy, in the case you don't have an individual MRI for  the subject. It uses the default anatomy (MNI/Colin27) and deforms it  to match the head points. Make sure the alignment is correct before  calling this menu.
