I would like to write image files under Matlab, possibly individual images
and stacks.  I work with medical images and its important to me that I be
able to preserve information about lengths and areas in the file headers,
and that imageJ be able to automatically read in this information in order
to make measurements on the image.  Would anyone be able to tell me what
file formats I could use to accomplish this, with a minimum of programming
involved?  I know ImageJ reads in image dimensions well from DICOM files,
but I'm not working with images that have applicable DICOM headers written
for them.
