The document outlines the steps to create an Epilog account, add new patients, and submit EEG and MRI data for analysis. It specifies guidelines for acceptable EEG and MRI data, including requirements for data quality and format. After submission, users can track the processing status and eventually access results through various download options.

- 1. w w w . e p i l o g . c a r e
- 2. Create an Epilog account Go to https://epilog.care and press get started. Note: use google chrome, firefox or safari.
- 3. Press the don’t have an account yet option. Create an Epilog account
- 4. Fill in your details, view the terms, accept them and submit your information to create your Epilog account. Create an Epilog account
- 5. Check your e-mail and copy paste the link in your web-browser: chrome, firefox or safari. Choose your password. Create an Epilog account
- 6. Sign in to your Epilog account Go to https://preop.epilog.care again and fill in your details. Press login.
- 7. Add a new patient Once you signed in to your account, you’ll get the overview page of the patients that were submitted for processing, To add a new patient you can press the add new patient bution. The number of slots depicts the number of analyses you still can do on your account. Contact us at info@epilog.care to increase the number of slots. If you have a new account, you will get 1 slot by defqult. If a new patient is submitted for processing, one slot will be used. This number counts the patients that were submitted for analyses on your account.
- 8. Add new patient Give the dataset you want to submit a unique id. You can use this ID to identify your patient. Once you press add new patient, you will be asked to give your patient a unique identification code.
- 9. Add a new patient After assigning your patient ID, you can select the EEG and MRI data. You’ll have a separate upload dialog for the EEG data and one for the MRI data. Please select the EEG and MRI data upload guidelines on the next pages. You can drag and drop your files into the EEG upload dialog or press add files to open a file browser. You can drag and drop your files into the EEG upload dialog or press add files to open a file browser. Add notes for your patient if you want to add an extra specification. Note that the patient ID in this case is TEST
- 10. EEG data: Guidelines We accept EEG data with a duration more than 12 hours and less than 7 days recorded in an epilepsy monitoring unit. The EEG data must be recorded in one continuous recording session. We do not except multiple recordings of the same patient in one submission. We accept EEG recordings in a standard clinical setup (according to the international 10-20 positioning system). Make sure the registration contains subtemporal electrodes such as FT9, FT10, TP9, TP10, T9, T10, T1 or T2. If you don’t have subtemporal electrodes, you will receive a notification. The number of electrodes should be higher or equal than 17. If you have multiple files from the same recording, please put the files in a folder first and upload them in a zipped folder.
- 11. MRI data: Guidelines 3D T1 in which the head of the patient is fully captured (in axial, sagittal and coronal plane). Resolution of the MRI is equal or smaller than 1.15 by 1.15 by 1.15 mm. The MRI is artifact free (no aliasing – metal artifacts). We except DICOM files or NIFTI images. If you upload DICOM images, please put the DICOM files in a zipped folder before uploading. Please make sure the scalp of the patient is fully captured. This is necessary to accurately model the head of the patient for source localization
- 12. Submit your patient for analysis After uploading the EEG and MRI files, the submit button will become active. Submit the files for processing.
- 13. Waiting for the results After the patient data is submitted it will get the status waiting. When the status is waiting, you can still add data by pressing the pencil symbol. By pressing the pencil button you will go back to the upload screen that was explained on the previous page of this guideline. Once Epilog starts processing the data, the status will change from waiting to processing. When the patient is in the processing status, you will not be able to change the data anymore. The results will be ready within 72 hours.
- 14. Access and interpret the results Once the results of the patient are ready, the status changes into three pictograms. The first one corresponds with the 3D viewer, Epiview. Please read the viewer guidelines for more information. The second pictogram corresponds with the pdf report. Please read the report intepretation guidelines for more information. The third pictogram corresponds with a download option. Using this pictogram you can download the resuls of the analysis: the report, the DICOM images of the source localized activity per detected spike cluster and the MRI of the patient coregistered with the source localized activity maps.
