I just realized that I could use GrayscaleErodeImageFilter and GrayscaleDilateImageFilter. <div><br></div><div>-Robert<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Dec 8, 2010 at 5:34 PM, robert tamburo <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:robert.tamburo@gmail.com">robert.tamburo@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">I was looking for a filter that would compute the minimum/maximum value within a region across the entire image and place that value in the output image at the input pixel's location. Two filters by the name of itkMinimumImageFilter and itkMaximumImageFilter exist in BasicFilters, but do not offer this functionality. Instead, they take two images as input and output the pairwise minimum/maximum at each pixel location.<div>
