// The \doxygen{FlipImageFilter} is used for flipping the image content in
// any of the coordinate axes. This filter must be used with \textbf{EXTREME}
// caution. You probably don't want to appear in the newspapers as
// responsible for a surgery mistake in which a doctor extirpates the left
// kidney when he should have extracted the right one\footnote{\emph{Wrong
// side} surgery accounts for $2\%$ of the reported medical errors in the
// United States. Trivial... but equally dangerous.} . If that prospect
// doesn't scare you, maybe it is time for you to reconsider your career in
// medical image processing. Flipping effects which seem innocuous at first
// view may still have dangerous consequences. For example, flipping the
// cranio-caudal axis of a CT scan forces an observer to flip the left-right
// axis in order to make sense of the image.
