== Download and installation ==
 * '''Requirements''': You have  already  followed all the introduction tutorials and you have a working copy of   Brainstorm installed on your computer.
 * '''CT2MRIREG''': If you are running Brainstorm from the MATLAB environment,  for the coregistration between CT and MRI volumes,  you need to have the ct2mrireg Anatomy plugin installed on your computer, as a [[https://neuroimage.usc.edu/brainstorm/Tutorials/Plugins|Brainstorm plugin]].
 * '''Download the dataset''':
  * Go to the [[http://neuroimage.usc.edu/bst/download.php|Download]] page of this website, and download the file: '''tutorial_seeg_contact_localization.zip'''
  * Unzip   it in a folder that is not in any of the Brainstorm folders (program   folder or database folder)
 * '''Brainstorm''':
  * Start Brainstorm (MATLAB scripts or stand-alone version).
  * Select the menu File > Create new protocol. Name it "'''TutorialSeegImplantation'''" and select the options: <<BR>>"'''No, use individual anatomy'''",<<BR>>"'''No, use one channel file per acquisition run'''".
