[ITK] Fwd: N4BiasCorrection output size

[Vishwanathan Shreyas]

Also, using useCompression=True as parameter in SimpleITK.WriteImage()
gives:

TypeError: WriteImage() got an unexpected keyword argument 'useCompression'


Though I appreciate the work on SimpleITK, I can't help but say that
SimpleITK is very poorly managed.
