[Insight-users] FW: How to convert VersorRigid3DTransform to vtkTransform

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Toon,


What you are doing seems to be reasonable.

The only thing that can be wrong in your process is
that the Matrix may need to be transposed.


However, before we go there, could you please
share with us the evidence that lead you to think
that the transformation is not correct ?


If you are obtaining the Versor transform as the
result of an image registration process in ITK,
chances are that you are being confused by the
direction in which Transforms are computed in ITK.


Please let us know,


     Thanks


        Luis
