I have written a GUI for doing volume-rendering in IDL. It is based on the
demo which RSI provides which shows an electron probability distribution and a
PET/MRI scan. That demo is crippled, since it can't read other data sets, etc.
You can get my volume_render.pro, and also make_movie.pro (view 3-D data sets
as a movie of frames in the X, Y or Z directions, optional MPEG output) and
image_display.pro (2-D image display with pan, zoom, cursor into your data,
etc.) at:

All I can suggest is to start writing some code. Check
http://www.dfanning.com/ when you get stuck for any reason - David keeps
up a fantastic site, where 90% of answers can be found, and 10%
remaining are present at the same site in the form of workarounds. Or,
ask here - David will reply, if you can survive his idl-ized sence of
humor :-) Also, you will get more ideas from the group if you ask more
concrete questions.
Welcome to IDL and good luck,
Pavel

Sorry, I'm moving this week. I'll let Liam handle this. :-)
Cheers,
