[vtkusers] vtkImageSlabReslice and SlabResolution

Hello,

I am using vtkImageSlabReslice to perform thick multi planar reformatting on a medical CT dataset,
using MIP for the slabs.

There are two parameters that I need to set: SlabThickness   and SlabResolution.
I calculate SlabThickness in world coordinates based on the pixel dimensions and pixel-to-mm scaling factors,
but I am not sure what is the best value for SlabResolution.

Currently I am using the default value of one for the resolution.

According to the header file,

# of slices in slab = (2 x (int)(0.5 x SlabThickness/SlabResolution)) + 1;

Any insight here would be greatly appreciated,
Aaron
