| == Important notes == * In all the tutorials, we will consider that you are working with the source distribution of Brainstorm, as it is the recommanded way to use this toolbox. If you are working with compiled binaries, some menus might be missing, but everything else should work the same way. * Before starting using Brainstorm with your own data, you should go through all the tutorials. * If you want a printed version of this documentation: open a tutorial, go to the menu on top of the page, select ''More actions > Print view'', print the page, click on the ''Back ''button of your browser, and go to next tutorial. |
== Required background == These tutorial pages suppose you are comfortable with the basic concepts of MEG and EEG source imaging. If you're not, we engage you to read some background information, which will quickly help you getting up to speed with this field: |
