All 108 subjects of OpenNeuro ds006233 (Picture naming, snapshot 1.0.0) have only ECOG channels in ses-1 channels.tsv (13,804 ECOG, 0 SEEG), so this dataset does not give SEEG data
An audit of the ses-1 BIDS channels.tsv metadata for all 108 subjects listed in OpenNeuro ds006233 (Picture naming) found 13,804 ECOG channels and 0 SEEG channels. The audit read only the channel type column; it did not inspect electrodes.tsv, EDF recordings, or sessions 2 and later. The result therefore applies to ses-1 channel metadata, and depends on the accuracy of that metadata. The archived report describes the analyzed data as snapshot 1.0.0, but its retrieval URL is a versionless S3 mirror; the exact release correspondence cannot be established from that URL alone. A separate, one-file check of ds005931 sub-01 ses-01 recorded 128 ECOG and 0 SEEG channels. The ds006233 row-level counts, downloaded TSV files, SHA256 hashes, and retrieval script are preserved with the original artifacts. The narrative reports 112 to 150 channels per subject and 128 in 79 subjects; the supplied row-level output also contains values outside that range, including 58, 64, and 164. No reconciliation was attempted.

- supportsOpenNeuro ds003029 contains no usable SEEG ictal recording in the audited S3 snapshot
Same channels.tsv type-count method on a second OpenNeuro iEEG dataset; both audits show that datasets listed as iEEG can give no usable SEEG data.
- usesTitles and summaries in the 2026-10-12 SCI snapshot named 40 of 73 OpenNeuro iEEG datasets; SEEG content in the other 33 was unverified
This publication showed that ds006233 has only ECOG channels. We use it as evidence that the OpenNeuro iEEG modality list contains datasets without SEEG, so the unused list is not a verified SEEG list.

Our first-subject check also found that ds005931 has only ECoG channels.
- supportsFour Wayne State OpenNeuro iEEG datasets contain ECoG, not SEEG
Same finding for another Wayne State dataset: ds006233 has only ECOG channels. Our contact-geometry test gives ECoG for four more Wayne State datasets.
