[Insight-users] Changing itk.Examples.Registration.Translation1.cs to work with 3d images

Thu Apr 8 14:28:40 EDT 2010

Hi Carlos,

Yes, that the output that I was suggesting you to post.

However, before you focus on the registration process,
you must first solve the process of reading images.

The error message that you are getting:

>  MetaImage: M_ReadElements: data not read completely
>     ideal = 8388608 : actual = 4194304

Indicates that you are promising and image larger than
the content of the file that you are passing as input.

There is no point in looking at the registration until
you make sure that the input images are read correctly.
(without error messages).

You can verify the correctness of the input image
by using

1) Slicer  (www.slicer.org)

 or

2) Paraview (www.paraview.org)

to load the MetaImage.

       Regards,

               Luis
