[Insight-users] Memory-mapped images?

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Demian,

By "memory-mapped" do you mean to take
a memory buffer that you already have
and pass it to ITK in order to use it
for an image ?

If that is the case, what you want to use
is the ImportImageFilter

http://www.itk.org/Insight/Doxygen/html/classitk_1_1ImportImageFilter.html


You will find this explained in the Tutorials
http://www.itk.org/HTML/Tutorials.htm

In particular in session
http://www.itk.org/CourseWare/Training/GettingStarted-V.pdf

You will also find a discussion on this topic
on the Software Guide

    http://www.itk.org/ItkSoftwareGuide.pdf

Section 4.1.7., pdf-pages 71-73.

For an example, you will find source code
available under

   Insight/
      Examples/
            DataRepresentation/
                           Image/
                              Image5.cxx
	


Regards,


     Luis
