[Insight-users] Example on morphological image enhancement

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Lino,

This is great !

Thanks for contributing this example to ITK.

It has been committed into the directory

     Insight/Examples/Filtering/
        MorphologicalImageEnhancement.cxx


The section between lines 170-200 can  be converted by
creating a Functor filter. In that way there is no need
to create the internal image.

It will be great to include in the repository the Opening
and Closing filters that you implemented. Please send them
and we will commit them to the repository. You may want to
add your information in the "\author" Doxygen tag of the
respective classes.



Regards,


    Luis
