Module Description

Resampling an image is an important task in image analysis. It is especially important in the frame of image registration. This module implements image resampling through the use of itk Transforms. This module uses an Identity Transform. The resampling is controlled by the Output Spacing. 'Resampling' is performed in space coordinates, not pixel/grid coordinates. It is quite important to ensure that image spacing is properly set on the images involved. The interpolator is required since the mapping from one space to the other will often require evaluation of the intensity of the image at non-grid positions. Several interpolators are available: linear, nearest neighbor and five flavors of sinc. The sinc interpolators, although more precise, are much slower than the linear and nearest neighbor interpolator. To resample label volumnes, nearest neighbor interpolation should be used exclusively.

   Description: Resampling an image is an important task in image
   analysis.It is especially important in the frame of image registration.
   This module implements image resampling through the use of itk
   Transforms. This module uses an Identity Transform. The resampling is
   controlled by the Output Spacing. 'Resampling' is performed in space
   coordinates, not pixel/grid coordinates. It is quite important to ensure
   that image spacing is properly set on the images involved. The
   interpolator is required since the mapping from one space to the other
   will often require evaluation of the intensity of the image at non-grid
   positions. Several interpolators are available: linear, nearest neighbor
   and five flavors of sinc. The sinc interpolators, although more precise,
   are much slower than the linear and nearest neighbor interpolator. To
   resample label volumnes, nearest neighbor interpolation should be used
   exclusively.
