[FieldTrip] ROI selection of beamformer grid points

[Johanna Zumer]

Hi Marieke,

In case you hadn't already, it's easier to do things in MNI coordinates
(like select grid points from atlases) if the source reconstruction was
already done using warped grid points from MNI to subject-specific space.
 See  here
<http://fieldtrip.fcdonders.nl/example/create_single-subject_grids_in_individual_head_space_that_are_all_aligned_in_mni_space?s[]=warp&s[]=mni>for
help on that.   If you have done that, then replace the .pos field in each
subject with the grid.pos from the MNI, and no need to ft_sourceinterpolate.

If the question is more regarding the templates, see here
<http://fieldtrip.fcdonders.nl/template/atlas>for more tips, including info
on the useful ft_read_atlas function.

Cheers,
Johanna
