Detailed Description

Define an N-dimensional ellipsoidal region of interest.

Intended use:

Public interface

Prerequisite

LCRegion

Synopsis

The LCEllipsoid class is a specialization of class LCRegion . It makes it possible to define an N-dimensional ellipsoidal region of interest, which includes the border. A separate constructor exists to define the special case of an N-dimensional sphere.
The center and the radii of the ellipsoid do not need to be pixel aligned. The center of the ellipsoid must be inside the lattice. The current implementation only supports ellipsoids with axes parallel to the lattice axes except in the case of a 2-D ellipse for which a constructor is provided for specifying the angle between the x-axis and major axis of the ellipse.

It can only be used for a lattice of any dimensionality as long as the dimensionality of the (hyper-)ellipsoid matches the dimensionality of the lattice.

Example

To Do

Arguments to have ellipsoid axes not parallel to lattice axes for dimensions greater than 2. This is a nontrivial problem because of the complexity of the rotation matrices involved.
