53 * \brief Converts an ITK image into a VTK image and plugs a
54 * itk data pipeline to a VTK datapipeline.
56 * This class puts together an itkVTKImageExporter and a vtkImageImporter.
57 * It takes care of the details related to the connection of ITK and VTK
58 * pipelines. The User will perceive this filter as an adaptor to which
59 * an itk::Image can be plugged as input and a vtkImage is produced as
62 * \ingroup ImageFilters
