I think you can just run mri_convert, passing it one dicom file from the series, eg
mri_convert one.dcm 001.mgz
this will preserve the resolution.

Hello,
I have T1-weighted data from Philips 3 T scanner obtained at a resolution of 0.898 X 0.898 X 0.9 mm in both dicom (8 bit) and par/rec (pixel size = int16) format. I would like to preserve the acquisition resolution of the data in par/rec format; what is the best way to convert such data to mgz format for analysis in freesurfer? A command line example would be helpful, as I am new to freesurfer.
Thanks for your help,
Julie
