Hello Arjen,<br>Thanks for the links on the head motion correction. <br>Could you please point a source or a reference on which the FieldTrip head motion correction method is based? Is it expansion of magnetic scalar potential in spherical harmonics or some other method? How accurate is the correction and what are the limitations for its application; in other words does it correct for motion up to 3 cm or beyond? <br>
<br>What is the minimum motion that does not need to be corrected, for example we allow 5 mm?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Inna <br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Nov 14, 2012 at 5:07 AM, Stolk, A. <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:a.stolk@fcdonders.ru.nl" target="_blank">a.stolk@fcdonders.ru.nl</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<p> </p>
<p>There are a few (online and offline) tools implemented in FieldTrip to deal with head movements in MEG.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>For instance, have a look here:</p>
<p><a href="http://fieldtrip.fcdonders.nl/example/how_to_incorporate_head_movements_in_meg_analysis" target="_blank">http://fieldtrip.fcdonders.nl/example/how_to_incorporate_head_movements_in_meg_analysis</a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>ft_regressconfound is particularly useful for removing trial-by-trial variance from the data that can be explained by head movements. We found it to have a significant impact on statistical sensitivity.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>At our institute, we use a real-time head localizer to reposition the subject between and within sessions (prevent/minimalize different head positions). </p>
<p> </p>

<p><br>Currently, it is implemented only for CTF systems (with the continous head localization upgrade) but we are working on extending its implementation to other systems. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yours,</p>
