[Insight-users] pipeline doesn't flush

[Aditya Chandramouli]

Hi Karthik,

Thanks! You're right, I do use iterators to modify the image data before 
filtering. I'm not really sure about the modified time, but the workaround 
I'm using now is to modify the code so that the output of my filter is fed 
back to the input, on each iteration.

Cheers,

aditya
