// void SetFullNeighborsMode(bool) // Optional (default=false), if false N4, if true N26
// void SetActivateTimeOut(bool) // Optional (default=false), for debug issues: after 30s algorithms terminates. You can
// have a look at the VectorOrderImage to see how far it came
// void SetMakeOutputImage(bool) // Optional (default=true), Generate an outputimage of the path. You can also get the
// path directory with GetVectorPath()
// void SetCalcAllDistances(bool) // Optional (default=false), Calculate Distances over the whole image. CAREFUL,
// algorithm time extends a lot. Necessary for GetDistanceImage
// void SetStoreVectorOrder(bool) // Optional (default=false), Stores in which order the pixels were checked. Necessary
// for GetVectorOrderImage
// void AddEndIndex(const IndexType & EndIndex) //Optional. By calling this function you can add several endpoints! The
// algorithm will look for several shortest Paths. From Start to all Endpoints.
//
// std::vector< itk::Index<3> > GetVectorPath(); // returns the shortest path as vector
// std::vector< std::vector< itk::Index<3> > GetMultipleVectorPathe(); // returns a vector of shortest Paths (which are
// vectors of points)
// GetDistanceImage // Returns the distance image
// GetVectorOrderIMage // Returns the Vector Order image
