[Insight-users] GetPixel problems

[Stephen R. Aylward]

Please verify that you are accessing the row/column information in the 
image consistently between matlab and itk.

Also, matlab can use a colormap to convert values stored at a pixel to 
intensity values.   Please make sure ITK and matlab are processing the 
same data (mapped/unmapped values).

You might want to use ImageViewer in InsightApplications to look at the 
pixel values in the image.   This will verify that itk is reading your 
image correctly.  You can use it to explore the pixel values.   With the 
cursor in the ImageViewer window, press the h key.  This will bring up a 
list of options.  You'll be able to zoom-in on the image using '+', 
scroll the image using i-j-k-m, and have pixel values at mouse-clicks 
reported in the window using the 'v' option.

I hope this helps,
Stephen
