// During the computation of the resampled image all the pixels in the
// output region are visited. This visit is performed using
// \code{ImageIterators} which walk in the integer grid-space of the
// image. For each pixel, we need to convert grid position to space
// coordinates using the image spacing and origin.
//
// For example, the pixel of index $I=(20,50)$ in an image of origin
// $O=(19.0, 29.0)$ and pixel spacing $S=(1.3,1.5)$ corresponds to the
// spatial position
//
// \begin{equation}
// P[i] = I[i] \times S[i] + O[i]
// \end{equation}
//
// which in this case leads to $P=( 20 \times 1.3 + 19.0, 50 \times 1.5 +
// 29.0 )$ and finally $P=(45.0, 104.0)$
//
// The space coordinates of $P$ are mapped using the transform $T$ supplied
// to the \doxygen{ResampleImageFilter} in order to map the point $P$ to the
// input image space point $Q = T(P)$.
//
// The whole process is illustrated in Figure
// \ref{fig:ResampleImageFilterTransformComposition1}. In order to correctly
// interpret the process of the ResampleImageFilter you should be aware of the
// origin and spacing settings of both the input and output images.

// using a naive viewer that does not take pixel spacing into account. A

// space. The point $Q$ is then associated to the pixel of index
// $I=(66,81)$ on the input image, because this image has zero origin and

// in the output image is associated with the spatial point of coordinates
// $P=(10 \times 4.0 + 25.0, 10 \times 4.5 + 35.0)) =(65.0,80.0)$. This
// point is mapped by the transform---identity in this particular case---to
// the point $Q=(65.0,80.0)$ in the input image space. The point $Q$ is
// then associated with the pixel of index $I=( ( 65.0 - 0.0 )/2.0 - (80.0
// - 0.0)/3.0) =(32.5,26.6)$. Note that the index does not fall on a grid
// position. For this reason the value to be assigned to the output pixel
// is computed by interpolating values on the input image around the
// non-integer index $I=(32.5,26.6)$.
