Neuroscan Curry Multi-Modal Neuroimaging

Multi-Modal Neuroimaging

CURRY integrates multiple complementary functional and imagemodalities (EEG, ECoG, MEG; MRI, fMRI, PET, SPECT and CT) in a single software package for the purpose of obtaining the maximum accuracy of electrical source analysis. CURRY uses the full physical anatomy from MR and CT to provide three-dimensional models of the skull and brain allowing the neural generators of the topographic EEG to be computed.

CURRY was developed for mapping and identification of the neural generators of EEG and MEG recordings. However, the functionality offered and the revolutionary changes in this latest version CURRY also make it suitable for wider application, including clinical applications in neurology, epilepsy and radiology.
