[ITK] [ITK-users] Using ITK python wrapper

You should also not use InsightToolkit.py, but itk.py (by using : import itk)
Thats the preferred way to use itk with python wrapping. InsightToolkit.py will be removed in ITK 4.6 and was not realy working/tested in 4.5.

So the main entry point to itk is the itk.py module. As Matt said, moving the .pth file to your sites-packages should make it work.
