[Insight-users] slice based memory representation of itk volume

[Feng Ma]

Kevin and James:

  Thanks a lot for the information.

  I am actually looking at a filter that could do Gaussian smoothing like 
itkDiscreteGaussianImageFilter, without using a continous 1D block of 
memory.

  To use existing itk filters, probably the best shot is to use sparse 
image. I think itkDiscreteGaussianImageFilter does not support sparse image. 
Does the itkSmoothingRecursiveGaussianImageFilter support sparse image? Or 
there is any other filter that I could use/tweak to achieve my goal?

  Thanks.

-Feng
