//  The magnitude of the image gradient is extensively used in image analysis,
//  mainly to help in the determination of object contours and the
//  separation of homogeneous regions. The
//  \doxygen{GradientMagnitudeImageFilter} computes the magnitude of the
//  image gradient at each pixel location using a simple finite differences
//  approach. For example, in the case of $2D$ the computation is equivalent
//  to convolving the image with masks of type

  //  Figure \ref{fig:GradientMagnitudeImageFilterInputOutput} illustrates the
  //  effect of the gradient magnitude filter on a MRI proton density image of
  //  the brain. The figure shows the sensitivity of this filter to noisy data.
  //
  //  Attention should be paid to the image type chosen to represent the output
  //  image since the dynamic range of the gradient magnitude image is usually
  //  smaller than the dynamic range of the input image. As always, there are
  //  exceptions to this rule, for example, synthetic images that contain high
  //  contrast objects.
  //
  //  This filter does not apply any smoothing to the image before computing the
  //  gradients. The results can therefore be very sensitive to noise and may
  //  not be the best choice for scale-space analysis.
