// This example should arguably be placed in the previous filtering
// chapter. However its usefulness for typical IO operations makes it
// interesting to mention here. The purpose of this example is to read an
// image, extract a subregion and write this subregion to a file. This is a
// common task when we want to apply a computationally intensive method to
// the region of interest of an image.
//
// As usual with ITK IO, we begin by including the appropriate header files.

// The \doxygen{RegionOfInterestImageFilter} is the filter used to extract a
