An ITK image is stored in a contiguous block.  I'm not sure about VTK - why not just try it?

Subject: [ITK] How itk and vtk images are stored

Hi,

I am wandering about the way itk and vtk images are stored in memory.
Is actually a contiguous block allocated for the image and the data is
simply stored in slice order?

In other words, if I have an itk and a vtk images of the same
attributes (dimensions, spacings, pixel type, etc.), would a memcpy
safely copy the contents of one to the other?

Much thanks,
Zeno
