Thank you for the response.

Just to clarify, when you say as long as the surface reconstruction is correct do you mean that the surface should not have any gross defects and surfaces such as the pial surface show correct wm/gm boundaries?

Best,

This is a surface-based atlas, so it is not sensitive to field strength
as long as the surface reconstruction is correct because surfaces align
with curvature and not intensity
