On top of my last email, we recommend that you start with the option 2, so create the burr holes with mesh files directly. Option 1 is not available with the current version of SimNIBS. I am sorry for the confusion, but we are working on it now, and hopefully
we will release the new version of SimNIBS next year so you could try option 1 too. </div>

I do not know what you want to do with the simulation, but to simply answer your question, yes, we have done simulations of burr holes in vivo human brain with SimNIBS, but it needs some extra coding to create burr holes on the skull. For our purpose, we have
done two different ways of simulation:</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:12pt; color:rgb(0,0,0)">
<ol>
<li>Start with the labeled image "m2m_<foldname>/label_prep/tissue_labeling_upsampled.nii.gz". We create the burrholes in the labeled image by relabeling the indices of the voxels that we want to label as burrholes, and then mesh it with Simnibs.<span></span></li><li>Start with the mesh file (*.msh). We create burr holes in the mesh file directly by changing the tags of the tetrahedra that we want to set as burr holes, then run the simulations.</li></ol>
<div>Both ways can be done, and which way to go depends on what you want to do and how you want to do it. I hope it makes sense.</div>
