// .NAME vtkImageCast -  Image Data type Casting Filter
// .SECTION Description
// vtkImageCast filter casts the input type to match the output type in
// the image processing pipeline.  The filter does nothing if the input
// already has the correct type.  To specify the "CastTo" type,
// use "SetOutputScalarType" method.

// .SECTION See Also
// vtkImageThreshold vtkImageShiftScale
