[FieldTrip] Source Reconstruction

Wed Mar 8 10:36:22 CET 2017

Hi Jan-Mathijs,
I managed to get the ft_electoderealign to work after some debugging, which
involved commenting out parts of the script. Could you take a look at the
two images I've attached. The first is my volume conduction model and the
sensors before realignment (unaligned.fig) and the second is after
realignment (aligned.fig).
any idea why the MRI markers which were used as the template (green) are so
far apart from the MEG marker coil positions( red)? also it seems that
before realignment everything looks okay, but how is that possible if my
volume conduction model is in CTF and my MEG sensors are not?
thanks
Ainsley
