[vtkusers] 2d image

[Nizam de Abreu Pfeilsticker]

I will explain what is exactly my problem. I have a serie of DICOMs that I
render in a skull, for example. I also have an actor, which is a plane, that
is used to choose the image to be resliced. I can spin and move this plane
through the skull.
Since I am using VB.NET, I cannot delete the actors or use smart
pointers and usually I have memory problems if I don't shrink the image.
Since I already have the plane (and the matrix4x4), can I have a function
that returns me an 2D image (not the 3D one). It is important to be 2D
because of memory issues. It would be perfect if I could have image as
bitmap streamed to memory (like byte[])
It would be even better if I could retrieve this image from the DICOMs
directly and not from the polydata I obtained using MarchingCubes (better
resolution, since the image is not shrinked)
Did I make me clear?
