/** \class ImageLinearIteratorWithIndex
 * \brief A multi-dimensional image iterator that visits image pixels within a
 * region in a "scan-line" order.
 *
 *  This iterator is a subclass of itk::ImageLinearConstIteratorWithIndex that
 *  adds write-access functionality.  Please see
 *  itk::ImageLinearConstIteratorWithIndex for more information.
 *
 * \par MORE INFORMATION
 * For a complete description of the ITK Image Iterators and their API, please
 * see the Iterators chapter in the ITK Software Guide.  The ITK Software Guide
 * is available in print and as a free .pdf download from http://www.itk.org.
