The longitudinal pipeline will not overcome (contrast) differences due to scanner differences. If you register the scans to eachother you will see that there are slight differences in WM/GM contrast. Probably better to use the scans from the same scanner and not use the third.

Hi all,
I just wanted to follow up on my question:
Would it be ok to use the longitudinal pipeline for scans that were acquired on different scanners (e.g time 1 and time 2 on the same scanner, time 3 on different scanner)? Would the longitudinal pipeline help to account for different scanners, since it creates the average base image for all 3 time points? or is this not recommended to use different scanners in longitudinal pipeline?
Thanks!
