[Vv] How can I pass a "patient mask" to clitkExtractLung?

[Simon Rit]

Hi,
clitkExtractLung is currently only compiled for images with "short"
pixel type. I don't know if this is by design or for compilation speed
but you can uncomment line 44 "ADD_IMAGE_TYPE(Dim, float);" in
clitkExtractLungGenericFilter.txx to compile it also for float images
and give it a try.
Good luck!
Simon
