How to read a multiframe tiff in MATLAB?

Hello,

I am trying to read a multiframe tiff of dimension 610 x 610 x 1200

Using imread('file.tiff') reads only the first image as mentioned in the documentation.

I would like to know how to read all frames.

ip =  imread('file.tiff') 

i.e

size(ip) = 610   610

but I want it to return

size(ip) = 610  610   1200

Any suggestions?

ip = imread('file.tiff', 'all');

Thank you, I missed this.

May I know if a similar option exists for imwrite? I could only find 'Append'.

[Deepa Maheshvare]

ip = imread('file.tiff', 'all');

Unrecognized parameter name 'all' 

in version 2019b.

[Walter Roberson]

ip = imread('file.tiff', 'Frames', 'all');

May I know if a similar option exists for imwrite? I could only find 'Append'.

No there is not.

For multiframe Tiff, it is typically better to use the Tiff() class

[Deepa Maheshvare]

ip = imread('file.tiff', 'Frames', 'all');

Unrecognized parameter name 'Frames'.

Your release should recognize Frames as an option. On the other hand, it appears that your release does not recognize Frames for TIFF files. It appears that you will need to loop specifying the index to read each time. You should be able to work out the number of frames by examining the imfinfo() structure.

for frame = 1 : 1200
    ip(:,:,frame) = imread('file.tiff', frame);
end

... or use the Tiff() class.

This is what I do in my app having multipage tiffs

info = imfinfo(imageFullFileName);
numberOfPages = length(info);
for k = 1 : numberOfPages
    % Read the kth image in this multipage tiff file.
    thisPage = imread(imageFullFileName, k);
    % Now process thisPage somehow...
end
