[ITK Community] [Insight-users] Upsampling and Interpolators

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Jose,

Yes, your intuition is correct in this case.

If you keep the images as a 4D image, the interpolator will
indeed blend values across time points. Since after all, they
are just seen as another spatial dimension.


You may want to do the 3D resampling within the original
3D images, before you compose them into a 4D image.


Note that since ITK 4.0 there is a set of classes in ITK
for managing ND+Time.


You will find them under

                /ITK/Modules/Video/Core/include


In particular,
you may find interesting the class

                         itkVideoStream.h


where you could put 3D images into a time sequence.


    Thanks

         Luis
