A computer implemented method of identifying contacts of an electrode implanted into the brain of a subject via bolts through the skull of the subject, based on an image of the subject, the method comprising: identifying at least one bolt region of the image corresponding to a bolt; identifying one or more contact regions of the image corresponding to electrode contacts; determining contact regions associated with an identified bolt region by searching for identified contact regions, the search being performed based on a search axis extending from the identified bolt region, the direction of the search axis being determined based on the identified bolt region.
