[Simnibs-discuss] Use head mesh obtained from FreeSurfer

Hi Silvana,

I haven't worked with TVB on my own. From an earlier request, it seems 
that TVB also has tissue masks as nifti-volumes. Then you don't need 
surfaces to create a head model.

You just have to create one nifti file where the compartment labels 
follow the simnibs conventions: 1 WM, 2 GM, 3 CSF, 4 SKULL, 5 SKIN. If 
you would like to distinguish between more comparments, let me know.

The run the /meshmesh /command of simnibs4 
(https://github.com/simnibs/simnibs/releases/tag/v4.0-beta1) to get a 
volume mesh for field simulations.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Axel
