[Insight-users] Getting overlap region

Hi!

Thanks for the response.

I´ll try to explain yout the issue. 
It is all about a regsitration problem.
I have two images, a fixed and a moving image. Lets consider the fixed image is of dimension [192 130 192] and the moving image is of dimension [192 7 192].
The metric will give you a sample exception error because too many samples are outside the moving image. 
Now, what i want to do is to define a mask, which contains the overlap of the two images and pass it to the metric->SetFixedImageMask() method, which expects a ImageMaskSpatialObject.

So now my problem is how to compute an overlap(image, spatialobject) containing the fixed and the moving images, or the fixed and the moving spatial objects, respectively. 
And i assume, i am capable of creating an ImageMaskSpatialObject with the help of the obtained overlap image or object and pass it to the metric.


thanks and best regards!
