/**
 * @class   vtkVolumeReader
 * @brief   read image files
 *
 * vtkVolumeReader is a source object that reads image files.
 *
 * VolumeReader creates structured point datasets. The dimension of the
 * dataset depends upon the number of files read. Reading a single file
 * results in a 2D image, while reading more than one file results in a
 * 3D volume.
 *
 * File names are created using FilePattern and FilePrefix as follows:
 * snprintf (filename, sizeof(filename), FilePattern, FilePrefix, number);
 * where number is in the range ImageRange[0] to ImageRange[1]. If
 * ImageRange[1] <= ImageRange[0], then slice number ImageRange[0] is
 * read. Thus to read an image set ImageRange[0] = ImageRange[1] = slice
 * number. The default behavior is to read a single file (i.e., image slice 1).
 *
 * The DataMask instance variable is used to read data files with imbedded
 * connectivity or segmentation information. For example, some data has
 * the high order bit set to indicate connected surface. The DataMask allows
 * you to select this data. Other important ivars include HeaderSize, which
 * allows you to skip over initial info, and SwapBytes, which turns on/off
 * byte swapping. Consider using vtkImageReader as a replacement.
