Abstract :
In positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) volume rendering, volume images are associated with individual lookup tables, which users must manipulate independently of the resultant volumes being fused. An intuitive, efficient dual-lookup table transfer function can improve the visualization of fused PET/CT renderings
