Hi:

Any SEEG 3D Slicer extension or open-source software? I need an extension or software to place the SEEG electrodes in an MRI image and brain mesh model.

Sincerely,

Gonzalo Rojas Costa

Hi,

Lead-DBS supports seeg up to some extent, you can see supported electrode models here [https://github.com/netstim/leaddbs/tree/develop/templates/electrode\_models](https://github.com/netstim/leaddbs/tree/develop/templates/electrode_models)

MMVT is another option for seeg/ecog [https://mmvt.mgh.harvard.edu/](https://mmvt.mgh.harvard.edu/). Related recent publication: [Modular pipeline for reconstruction and localization of implanted intracranial ECoG and sEEG electrodes](https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0287921)

Not sure if @Greydon_Gilmore 's Trajectory Guide supports this [GitHub - greydongilmore/trajectoryGuideModules](https://github.com/greydongilmore/trajectoryGuideModules)

Slicer would definitely be a great platform to further implement these features.

Hi all,

Yes, trajectoryGudie does support SEEG. In fact, it supports any neurosurgical trajectory you want to plan/localize/VTA model (i.e. DBS, SEEG, tumor biopsy etc.).

Here is a sample of SEEG planning output in trajectoryGuide:

Please note, I can provide limited support at this time for trouble-shooting. I will try my best. You can find documentation for my software tool here: [https://trajectoryguide.greydongilmore.com/](https://trajectoryguide.greydongilmore.com/).
