Investigating the spatial correlation between different emissions in an extended astrophysical source can provide crucial insights into their physical connection, hence it can be the key to understand the nature of the system. The point-to-point analysis of surface brightness is a reliable method to do such an analysis. In this work, we present PT-REX, a software to carry out these studies between radio and X-ray emission in extended sources. We discuss how to reliably carry out this analysis and its limitation and we introduce the Monte Carlo point-to-point analysis, which allows to extend this approach to poorly-resolved sources. Finally we present and discuss the application of our tool to study the diffuse radio emission in a galaxy cluster.
