[Insight-users] Binary Image Analysis

[Lassi Paavolainen]

Hi Christian,

This is possible. Following classes for doing this has been available for 
a long time:
http://www.itk.org/Doxygen316/html/classitk_1_1ConnectedComponentImageFilter.html
http://www.itk.org/Doxygen316/html/classitk_1_1StatisticsImageFilter.html

Starting from ITK 3.16 there are lots of new classes to analyse label 
images, thanks to Gaetan. You can see the documentation about those 
classes in:
