I'm not going to respond to Peter's rather heavy handed remarks other than to say each to their own, but don't knock it until you've tried it ........

Oh Pleeease.... The method is hardly "world renown" .....I'd reserve a technique, such David Malin's pre-photoshop unsharp masking for such a moniker

Applying differing and arbitrary scaling and gaussian distributions to the data...which this method is chokka-block full of....might give you some pretty pictures but is guaranteed not to reflect the Physics of what's going on in the object.
