[Insight-users] Convert image to (multi-dimensional) array in SimpleITK

[Zhongliu Xie]

Dear fellow ITK users,

Recently I have been using Simple ITK under C# environment. I wonder 
whether there is a way to quickly convert an image into an array of 
intensities (leaving out the meta info)? In particular, is it possible 
to directly convert to a multidimensional array such as intensity[x,y,z] 
(or intensity[x][y][z] in C++) indicating the intensity of voxel at 
<x,y,z>?

BTW, I also noticed there is something called Buffer which seems 
related. Could someone explain what  buffer is more explicitly so that I 
can make sure I understand it correctly?

Thanks in advance,
Zhongliu
