[vtkusers] Why there is a terrace effect in the volume rendering?

[S, Navneeth (GE, Research)]

2 Reasons for this artifact are:
1. A dataset with high inter-slice spacing 
2. Improper choice of opacity transfer function. You will need a
transfer function with a "softer" slope from background to foreground.
