[Eeglablist] Using ICA with EEG, ECG and EOG.

Hi all,

I'm a new user in the fantastic EEGLAB world :) !
I have a question about the removal of ECG and EOG artifacts from EEG data.

Here is my scenario: I have 40 channels, where:
- 34 are EEG of which I know the location on scalp
- 4 are EOG (namely H++, H-, V++, V-)
- 2 are EKG (namely EKG++, EKG-).

I load the dataset, and after this operation I would like to immediately
run an ICA decomposition
(I need to do something else before this?).
But actually I really don't now how to correctly use this dataset with the
ICA decomposition.
Should I run the ICA only on the 34 eeg channels, or maybe on all 40
channels? (in the
relative GUI i can decide to do ICA on a certain subset of channels).
The aim is to exclude the influence of the ECG/EOG artifacts from EEG data
to accomplish further analysis.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks a lot!

D.M.
