Import .vol data to MATLAB

This code let's you import volumetric CT data from General Electric/Waygate systems (.vol-Format) to MATLAB.

You are now following this Submission

The code was written and finalized in 2019 with MATLAB R2018b. To the best of my knowledge, there was no other functionality that would directly import .vol-files.
This code let's you import volumetric CT data from General Electric/Waygate CT systems like v|tome|x M that has been reconstructed with their pheonix datos|x software (.vol-format) to MATLAB.
EXEMPLARY USAGE
The following path MUST contain the .vol file and the .pcr file
>> directory_imp = 'C:\path\to\folder\with\files'
>> [import_time, ImportedVolume] = import_vol_file(directory_imp);

... wrong file uploaded

1.0.4

added the time formatting function

1.0.3

The old code required files that have a certain size. This would result in more than one single package that has to be read. If the file was too small, there was a wrongful multiplication with zero, which resulted in an empty volume.

1.0.2

updated wrong function name for formatting time

1.0.1
