[FieldTrip] Using default head and source models for source reconstruction

[Jan Ostrowski]

Hi there,

my name is Jan Ostrowski and I am working on crossmodal memory. I 
conducted a study using a 64-Channel EEG setup, and would like to 
explore the data using Fieldtrip's source reconstruction functionality. 
However, due to my study design, I did not acquire individual MRI images 
for solving the forward problem.

I'd like to know if it is possible to use some default templates for 
that, as all tutorials assume that one has MRI images to work with. If 
it is possible, then what templates should I use and how would I 
implement it? As in: What steps of the process described in the 
tutorials could I skip?

I understand that using default templates will make the results of the 
source reconstruction less precise, and I am well aware that one should 
be cautious when interpreting that. This is, however, going to be an 
additional, exploratory analysis.

Any help with this is greatly appreciated!

Best,
Jan Ostrowski
