Electrode-localization
Published in Department of Biomedical Engineering, 2025
Algorithms 
in MATLAB for objectively and automatically localizing intracranial contac, based on CT images, MRI images, and freesurfer segmentation.
Workflow
Implementation
| Entry | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| 01 | Initialization | Use predictive algorithms or manually select initial electrode locations based on CT |
| 02 | Searching | Use graph-based search with brightness threshold going from high to low until a connected volume is identified |
| 03 | Validation | The center of the identified bright cloud is used as electrode centroid. These locations will be exported to freeview for validation |
| 04 | Customization | If the electrode are evenly spaced, based on shank direction, we can initialize without manual selection |
Future direction
Achieve non-parametric optimization to maximize dependence on subjective choice.
