[ITK] [ITK-users] Composing Affine Transformation

[Matt McCormick]

Hi,

>From your description, it sounds like you might want

(T2C2(R2)C2^-1)*(T1C1(R1)C1^-1)

See:

  http://itk.org/ITKSoftwareGuide/html/Book2/ITKSoftwareGuide-Book2ch3.html#x26-1160003.9

  http://www.itk.org/Doxygen/html/classitk_1_1AffineTransform.html

  http://insightsoftwareconsortium.github.io/SimpleITK-Notebooks/22_Transforms.html

For more information.

Hope this helps,
Matt
