// .NAME vtkImageActor - draw an image (data & properties) in a rendered 3D scene
// .SECTION Description
// vtkImageActor is used to render an image in a 3D scene.  The image
// is placed at the origin of the image, and its size is controlled by the
// image dimensions and image spacing. The orientation of the image is
// orthogonal to one of the x-y-z axes depending on which plane the
// image is defined in. vtkImageActor duplicates the functionality 
// of combinations of other VTK classes in a convenient, single class.

// .SECTION Caveats
// vtkImageData requires the image to be of type unsigned char. Use a
// filter like vtkImageShiftScale to convert to unsigned char (the
// method to use is SetOutputTypeToUnsignedChar()).

// .SECTION See Also
// vtkImageData vtkProp vtkImageShiftScale

  // of slices is in reference to the display z axis, which is not
  // necessarily the z axis on disk. (due to reformatting etc)
