Two protocols become one

[Estsararr]

Hi, Francois!

Is ir possible two protocols become one? I have been doing some background research in tutorial 1 and forum but has not given any information on this point. I need mix healthy control`s and patient´s protocols to compared neural sources into BrainStorm. I have already done this comparison in SPM but I would like to check the signal plotting both groups.

Thanks in advance,
Esteban

Hi Esteban,

@Estsararr

Is ir possible two protocols become one?

Yes, it is possible. However there is not an GUI option to do this.
Check the instructions in this post:

Merging several protocols together

Dear Anna, Yes, it is possible, but be very careful with this, backup all your data before trying. Let’s say you want to merge on computer A the data that is currently on computer A and computer B. On computers A and B, make sure the protocols are configured in exactly in the same way (the options of the subjects you get when you right-click on a subject > Edit subject) On computer A, make a full copy of the protocol folder On computers A and B, menu File > Remove protocol > Only detach from …

Be very careful with this, backup all your data before trying.

Other important points to have a trouble-free merge:

• Protocols A and B should be configured in exactly in the same way.
  Right-click in the top node > Edit protocol to see the Protocol configuration

• To avoid overwritting Subjects, be sure there are not duplicated Subject names

• If Subjects use default anatomy, this default anatomy should be the same in both protocols

Best,
Raymundo
