How to use this documentation
This documentation describes the C++ API of the SimpleITK interface to the Insight Toolkit. The wrapped languages have a very simular interface, that should only be trivially different. The Related Pages link presents interface conventions, user and developer information. Additionally the Example tab provides a variety of example of SimpleITK with different language bindings.
