Detailed Description

template<typename TImage>
class itk::ImageRegionConstIterator< TImage >

A multi-dimensional iterator templated over image type that walks a region of pixels.

The itk::ImageRegionConstIterator is optimized for iteration speed and is the first choice for iterative, pixel-wise operations on an image. ImageRegionIterator is the least specialized of the ITK image iterator classes. ImageRegionConstIterator is templated over the image type, and is constrained to walk only within the specified region and along a line parallel to one of the coordinate axes, "wrapping" to the next line as it reaches the boundary of the image. To walk the entire image, specify the region to be image->GetRequestedRegion().

ImageRegionConstIterator provides read-only access to image data. It is the base class for the read/write access ImageRegionIterator.

ImageRegionConstIterator is a multi-dimensional iterator, requiring more information be specified before the iterator can be used than conventional iterators. Whereas the std::vector::iterator from the STL only needs to be passed a pointer to establish the iterator, the multi-dimensional image iterator needs a pointer, the size of the buffer, the size of the region, the start index of the buffer, and the start index of the region. To gain access to this information, ImageRegionConstIterator holds a reference to the image over which it is traversing.

ImageRegionConstIterator assumes a particular layout of the image data. The is arranged in a 1D array as if it were [][][][slice][row][col] with Index[0] = col, Index[1] = row, Index[2] = slice, etc.

operator++ provides a simple syntax for walking around a region of a multidimensional image. operator++ iterates across a row, constraining the movement to within a region of image. When the iterator reaches the boundary of the region along a row, the iterator automatically wraps to the next row, starting at the first pixel in the row that is part of the region. This allows for simple processing loops of the form:

      it = it.Begin();
      for (; !it.IsAtEnd(); ++it)
         {
         *it += 100.0;
         }

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename TImage>
itk::ImageRegionConstIterator< TImage >::ImageRegionConstIterator (  )  [inline]

Default constructor. Needed since we provide a cast constructor.

Definition at line 157 of file itkImageRegionConstIterator.h.

template<typename TImage>
itk::ImageRegionConstIterator< TImage >::ImageRegionConstIterator ( const ImageType ptr,
const RegionType region 
) [inline]

Constructor establishes an iterator to walk a particular image and a particular region of that image.

Definition at line 165 of file itkImageRegionConstIterator.h.

template<typename TImage>
itk::ImageRegionConstIterator< TImage >::ImageRegionConstIterator ( const ImageIterator< TImage > &  it  )  [inline]

Constructor that can be used to cast from an ImageIterator to an ImageRegionConstIterator. Many routines return an ImageIterator but for a particular task, you may want an ImageRegionConstIterator. Rather than provide overloaded APIs that return different types of Iterators, itk returns ImageIterators and uses constructors to cast from an ImageIterator to a ImageRegionConstIterator.

Definition at line 180 of file itkImageRegionConstIterator.h.
