[Insight-users] Angles of rotation from transformation matrix

Hi,

How can I calculate the angles of rotation about each axis from an 
Affine transformation matrix? There isn't any scale or shear in the 
matrix, only rotation.

Does anyone know the order of rotation used to get the rotation matrix 
(RxRyRz or RzRyRx)?
