Hi Jianfeng,

Yes, user mailing list is a better place for such topics.

Some quick comments:

VectorGradientMagnitudeAnisotropicDiffusionImageFilter is used to smooth an
image while preserving the edges.
Please refer to  the example and the documentation for the filter:

http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK/Examples/Smoothing/VectorGradientAnisotropicDiffusionImageFilter

Are you trying to use watershed segmentation to label lung regions? Please
refer to the software guide about watershed segmentation:
http://www.itk.org/ItkSoftwareGuide.pdf   Or other segmentation
methods discussed in the guide.

Lung region in CT images usually have high contrast due to the air content.
  Simple image processing combinations ( threshold,   region growing,
mathematical morphological operations etc.) usually
generate satisfactory results.

Thanks!
