Have a look at this:
http://mi.eng.cam.ac.uk/~gmt11/software/isosurf/isosurf.html
the problem may be how to convert the output to a POV-Ray mesh object.

Another option is to convert your images to grayscale TGA's and then turn 
it into a df3-file  http://www.users.on.net/~pod/df3/
This then can be used with isosurfaces or media for the latter:
