How to perform 3D-cinematic rendering?

I created a new tomography’ shader that is included with the latest release of MRIcroGL. It is nice to have a selection of free tools for the job. Slicer provides a huge amount of flexibility. MRIcroGL generates reasonably interactive, reasonably pretty volume renderings on typical laptops for typically sized volumes. Mevislab can create stunning renderings but high quality is not interactive and requires high end hardware.

I do not have access to many CT images, nor have experience with CT color tables. If anyone wants to make suggestions or improvements I would like to hear about them.
