To understand PET/VCT better, think about a geographic landscape captured from an aerial view. The different quality and density of vegetation is representative of a PET image, while the water systems are analogous to a VCT image.

Only by combining this information together can there be a true correlation between the flow of the water systems and the relative quality of vegetation. This information would be critical to a geologist trying to restore proper irrigation to an area of desolate terrain. The same analogy works for PET/VCT imaging with a physician assessing the appropriate treatment path for their patients.
