not sure. They will be less accurate I would think

OK, thanks so much for letting me know.  Any idea how it might affect cortical 
thickness or subcortical volume results (over-estimation/under-estimation)?

We do try to use the same image acquisition parameters for all subjects in a 
given study of course, but this was an unusual case...

Thanks,
Tricia

Hi Tricia,

I don't think you can use that subject. It will only have 39% of the SNR
of the others. Sorry :<

The native resolution of the other subjects is (1,1,1)mm voxel size and 
(256,256,160) voxels, whereas this subject is (0.7,0.7,0.8) mm voxel size and 
(288,288,165) voxels.  Sorry that wasn't clear in my previous email.  I'd 
appreciate any insight that anyone might be able to share.

Thanks,

What is the resolution of your other subjects?

Hello,

One of our subjects was scanned with (0.7,0.7,0.8) mm voxel size, although all 
other acquisition parameters were the same as the other subjects.  I'm 
wondering to what extent this might affect the results of the subcortical 
segmentation, cortical thickness measurements, etc., as compared to 1mm cubic 
voxels.  When would it be appropriate to use the '-cm' flag for mri_convert?

Thanks,
Tricia Merkley
