[ITK-users] concept checking error - RegistrationMethodv4

[Bradley Lowekamp]

Hello,

The current ITKv4 registration frame work is limited to real type (float/double). I believe it could be changed with some work, I think much of the reasoning for this requirement has to do with the way the multi-scale and gradient magnitude are implemented.

If you image is large, perhaps you should reduce the resolution before performing registration?
