Hi Gabriele,

Please read the Paraview Users Guide

 http://www.paraview.org/files/v1.6/ParaViewUsersGuide.PDF

It is normal that ParaView will show you only the outline of the
dataset that you loaded.  

Once you load the dataset, you want to use the "Cut" filter
in order to take a slice of the dataset,

                                     or

You can use the "Extract Grid" filter and then in the sliders
that it will display, you can select the slices along X, Y, Z
that you want to visualize.
 
                                     or

Since these images are binary masks, you can also extract their
surfaces with the "Contour" filter.


  Regards,


     Luis
