[Insight-users] [ITK Community] C# Wrapper for ITK

[Zhongliu Xie]

Dear Brad,

Thanks for your note. I think I need some example code of using 
SimpleITK on C#, in particular about how to walk an image region, and 
for each voxel in the region find a series of offset voxels in its 
neighbourhood for further processing. Could you give a clue on how to 
find such example code, and perhaps also examples for other functions? 
Thanks.

Regards,
Zhongliu
