Dear Luci, The very short answer is, it depends on your application (scanning hundreds of same thing or a multi-user facility in which users will want to scan rocks, biological specimens, engine parts). The major companies I am familiar with are Bruker (Skyscan), Scanco and GE. Expect to pay anywhere from $250K to $700K, depending on the scanner you choose and your support agreement.
Whatever you choose, there are very good open source packages. If you are spending tens of thousands of dollars on your analysis and visualization software, you are wasting money.
