[Insight-users] A qustion about the Vector Image IO

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Patrick

You can write vector image using the MetaImage format.
Just select the ".mhd" extension for the image filename.
There is no need for modifying the ImageIO code in order
to save vector images.

Note that unfortunately there is a known bug in the same
reader for vector images.
