Outline
• What is the neurophysiological motivation of the fusion architecture?
• How is fusion extended to a three-dimensional operator?
• How is this operator applied to volumetric data sets?
• What are the results?

Conclusions
• Development of the 3D shunting operator is a natural extension of the 2D operator
• Application of the 3D shunting operator provides better definition of image details in volumetric data sets
• 3D fusion extensions developed in the context of Med-LIFE, a visualization and pattern recognition tool.
