/** \brief Data source that reads image data from a single file.
 *
 * This source object is a general filter to read data from
 * a variety of file formats. It works with a ImageIOBase subclass
 * to actually do the reading of the data. Object factory machinery
 * can be used to automatically create the ImageIOBase, or the
 * ImageIOBase can be manually created and set. Note that this
 * class reads data from a single file; if you wish to read data
 * from a series of files use ImageSeriesReader.
 *
 * TOutputImage is the type expected by the external users of the
 * filter. If data stored in the file is stored in a different format
 * then specified by TOutputImage, than this filter converts data 
 * between the file type and the external expected type.  The 
 * ConvertTraits template argument is used to do the conversion.
 *
 * A Pluggable factory pattern is used this allows different kinds of readers
 * to be registered (even at run time) without having to modify the
 * code in this class. Normally just setting the FileName with the
 * appropriate suffix is enough to get the reader to instantiate the
 * correct ImageIO and read the file properly. However, some files (like
 * raw binary format) have no accepted suffix, so you will have to
 * manually create the ImageIO instance of the write type.
