Curry Clin­i­cal School Registration

Compumedics is pleased to announce its next Clin­i­cal Work­shop featur­ing Curry Neuroimag­ing Suite soft­ware. This hands-on work­shop, which is intended for physi­cians and EEG/MEG tech­nol­o­gists, is specif­i­cally focused on the eval­u­a­tion of epilepsy EEG and MEG data.

Course dura­tion is 2 ½ days, begin­ning Friday morn­ing with an intro­duc­tion to basic EEG/MEG review with Curry, followed by evoked response data analy­sis. Friday afternoon’s session will feature inter-ictal and ictal data review, spike/seizure mark­ing, event segre­ga­tion by field analy­sis, and aver­ag­ing. On Satur­day, source analy­sis meth­ods for the above data types will be reviewed, includ­ing the use of indi­vid­ual MRI and real­is­tic head models. Sunday morn­ing will be dedi­cated to intracra­nial EEG review, includ­ing inte­gra­tion with MRI and CT to local­ize elec­trodes and co-registration with other func­tional imag­ing data, such as PET.

All hands-on sessions will be performed with Curry soft­ware. Partic­i­pants are to bring their own Windows laptops and a wheel mouse. Curry soft­ware and course data will be installed onsite. Laptops should have as a mini­mum Windows XP as the OS. Windows 7 or 8 are preferred.

The train­ing will be conducted by Compumedics’ top research scien­tists, with clin­i­cal lectures provided by Dr. Ebersole.
