If you haven't heard of ImageJ, it sounds as if it's just what you're 
looking for.  Free, runs on any platform, 3d capabilities, excellent 
support network of users and developers and plugins that allow 
importation of a variety of image formats.

Get it at http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/ .

Good luck!
