/** \class VTKImageToImageFilter
 * \brief Converts a VTK image into an ITK image and plugs a
 *  VTK data pipeline to an ITK datapipeline.
 *
 *  This class puts together an itk::VTKImageImport and a vtk::ImageExport.
 *  It takes care of the details related to the connection of ITK and VTK
 *  pipelines. The User will perceive this filter as an adaptor to which
 *  a vtkImageData can be plugged as input and an itk::Image is produced as
 *  output.
