Hi Julien,Thanks for your reply. I am using MetaImage importer to read raw image and then apply one filter on it and then write the image in raw format. I was wondering if I can make any filter application example to deal with any file format..(those currently supported by ITK ). Anyways, I am using now pipes of filters once I load the image using Meta file importer. And this is definitely easier to use as you have suggested here.

ITK filters are using itk::Image as a data representation and therefore are
independent of the file format you are using. To answer your question, you
do not have to register filters with the IO factory.
Basically, the itkIO reads an image (any formats) from disk and produces an
itk::Image which is processed by the filters.
The best way to read a .raw image is to use the MetaImageImporter (in
InsightApplications) to create a MetaImage header. Then you can use the
ImageReadWrite example to read the MetaImage created. MetaImage is a file
format (see http://www.itk.org/HTML/Data.htm and
Insight/Utilities/MetaIO/doc) which specifies a header with the pixel type,
spacing, etc... for your raw image.
However, you can take a look at the RawImageReaderViewer example (in
InsightApplications) or
even, in Insight/Testing/Code/IO if you want to read your .raw image
directly, but this is more complex.
Let us know if you have further questions.
Julien

Hi All,
I am trying to use any filter on raw images. Do I need register all those
filters to central IO Factory ? I have seen that most of ITK applications/
filters deal with formats like PNG. But I can not use any other format than
raw. Raw format is a must for me.
Any input is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Neha

Hi Sateesh,
I agree with you in that 1Gb is too much memory
for performing the registration of your current
images using a single resolution level.
This may require to profile the example closer.
One typical suspect is the computation of derivatives
in the ImageMetric. In any case, it is quite likely
that some intermediate memory is being keept around
without being used.
The option I mention of loading only particular
levels of the pyramid is something you will have to
implement in your applications. This is not a feature
of the current multi-resolution framework.
Regards,
Luis
