Efficient volume-based localization and automatic labeling of intracranial depth electrodes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The accurate localization and anatomical labeling of intracranial depth electrodes are crucial for stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) recordings and the interpretation of results in patients with epilepsy. The laborious electrode localization procedure requires an efficient and easy-to-use pipeline. Thus, we developed a useful tool, which we called the depth electrode localizer (DELLO), to automatically identify and label depth electrode contacts with ease.

Methods

The DELLO is an open-source package developed in MATLAB (MathWorks). It was specifically fine-tuned to expedite the localization of depth electrodes. The basic procedures include preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and postoperative computed tomography coregistration, intensity threshold elec
