Hi Fieldtrip users,<div><br></div><div>I'm hoping that someone could give me advice on segmentation and beamformer on EEG data. I have EEG data set based on 128 channel cap. Thanks to the help I got in mid-Feb, I'm now able to create a decent segmentation (seg_results image attached) and volume conduction model. However, when I run beamformer based on these models, resulting beamforming image is often smaller than the brain (beamformer_result attached). Particularly posterior parietal and occipital map is NaN. </div>
<div><br></div><div>I have tried going back to segmentation and expanded brain by using imdilate after ft_volumesegment such as:</div><div><br></div><div>newbrain = imdilate(seg2.brain,strel_bol(1)); % seg2.brain is original brain tissue from segmentation</div>
<p class="p1">seg2.brain = newbrain;</p><div>seg2.seg = seg2.scalp + seg2.skull*3 + seg2.brain*6;</div><div><br></div><div>and run ft_prepare_mesh_new on seg2. Of course, I have to make sure there is no intersect between different tissue types, so using imdilate has limitation. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Could someone explain why this shrinkage might be happening, and how I could fix it? </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks in advance! Akiko</div><div><div><br>
