Hi Jiang,

The simplest way to connect ITK and VTK
pipelines is to use the pseudo-filters


      itkImageToVTKImage

and

      itkVTKImageToImage

available in

    InsightApplications/Auxiliary/vtk


They will convert an itk::Image into vtkImageData.

You can then connect the output vtkImageData
to the vtkImageViewer2 filter

http://www . vtk . org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkImageViewer2 . html



Regards,


   Luis
