I am working in a medical scientific environment (using PET scanning) and
in general tomographic imaging and we previously used PV-Wave. We switched
to IDL about 2 years ago because the manufacturer of our PET scanners
selected IDL as their applications development platform. My PV-Wave
programs all ran without a hitch under IDL (except I had to write a
trivial routine (AVG) to average an array). I am told that Wave has tailored
itself more to the business market while IDL has gone more into the
scientific visualization market, but I haven't seen Wave for 2 years or
so now. We deal with 3D and 4D datasets from medical imaging devices and
are very happy with IDL.
