== Download and installation ==
 * '''Requirements''':  You have  already followed all the introduction tutorials and you have a  working copy of  Brainstorm installed on your computer.
 * Go to the [[http://neuroimage.usc.edu/brainstorm3_register/download.php|Download]] page of this website, and download the file: '''sample_phantom.zip'''
 * Unzip   it in a folder that is not in any of the Brainstorm folders (program   folder or database folder)
 * Start Brainstorm (Matlab scripts or stand-alone version)
 * Select the menu File > Create new protocol. Name it "'''TutorialPhantom'''" and select the options:
  * "'''No, use individual anatomy'''",
  * "'''No, use one channel file per acquisition run (MEG)'''".

== Generate anatomy ==
 * In the Matlab command window: type "'''generate_ctf_phantom'''".
 * This creates a new subject '''Phantom''' and generates the "anatomy" for this device: one volume and a few surfaces representing the geometry of the phantom. <<BR>><<BR>> {{attachment:phantom_anat.gif||height="178",width="208"}}
 * You can display the MRI and surfaces as presented in the introduction tutorials. <<BR>><<BR>> {{attachment:phantom_mri.gif||height="314",width="281"}} {{attachment:phantom_surfaces.gif||height="314",width="341"}}
