Load MRI data into the workspace.

load mristack

Create a display panel used to display the slices and the slider.

ViewPnl = uipanel(figure,'Title','Z-Direction Slices of MRI');

View the data in the slice viewer, specifying a custom colormap for viewing the slices. The slice viewer opens the stack of images and displays the one in the middle. Use the slider to view a different slice.

cmap = parula(256);
s = sliceViewer(mristack,'Colormap',cmap,'Parent',ViewPnl);

Get the handle to the axes that contains the image slices in the slice viewer.

hAx = getAxesHandle(s)
