I'm not sure I understand your question. We compute the distance between 
minimum distances between the white and pial in mm, then compute the minimum 
between the pial and the white, then average them (all in mm)

Thanks for your response Bruce.
Does FS calculate the distance between the surface and CSF border in Euclidean 
and then converts it into mm?

Thanks
