Determine the Mount and Configuration to Use
The first step in setting up your eye tracker will be determining the mount and head coil to use,
deciding whether binocular tracking is required or desirable, and configuring the Mounting Bar
appropriately. A number of mounting options and camera positions for different MRI systems,
head coils and display/screen configurations are possible.
To date the EyeLink 1000 mounts have been installed in at least the scanner configurations
listed in Table 3. Other configurations may be possible and other scanners and configurations
have been successfully tested. These are not listed here as we have not yet designed specialized
mounts for them, but feel free to inquire about systems not listed.
