Thank you very much for your response. 
Out of curiosity, does someone know why the ADNI protocol has an anisotropic
voxel resolution?

I was wondering if it had to do with the increased SNR being more beneficial
for accurate segmentation than the gain in resolution from a 1mm isotropic
voxel... or, perhaps it is meant to speed things up and and cover the whole
brain a bit quicker?

Cheers,

Antonio

      Dear group,
I am new to FS and the ADNI protocol, thus my question: is it ok to
have a slice thickness of 1.2 mm and in-plane resolution of 1.05 mm
for cortical segmentation and brain volume analyses? This seems to be
a sequence suggested on the FreeSurferWiki (I am using a GE750 3T). 
Doesn't the anisotropic resolution introduce a bias?

Thanks a lot!
