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