Problem getting number of zslices and timepoints

I have a multi-tiff that contains a 466x637x30 image

that is i have a 3D image with 30 zslices.

when i use bioformats+matlab to read the file i find that

Code: Select all
K>> width = r.getSizeX()

width =

   637

K>> height = r.getSizeY()

height =

   466

K>> zslices = r.getSizeZ()

zslices =

     1

K>> timepoints = r.getSizeT()

timepoints =

    30


am i doing something wrong? loading the image incorrectly? i am using the file
Code: Select all
bfopen.m
as my guide.

If Bio-Formats can't find any information in the TIFF file to indicate that the planes are Z sections, then it defaults to assuming that all planes in the TIFF are timepoints.

The best thing to do would be to upload one of the files to:

http://qa.openmicroscopy.org.uk/qa/upload/

so that we can take a look and see what if anything can be done to fix it.
