Hi Núria,
I understand that you are trying to extract indices from a 3D matrix.
Assuming your 3D matrix is of values 0, 1, 2 that represent three different volumes in the space. We can extract the linear indices of the values using the 'find' function in MATLAB. 'find' function returns returns a vector containing the linear indices of each nonzero element in array X.
Further you can convert the linear indices to subscripts using the 'ind2sub' function in MATLAB.
Please go through this example for more details
% creating a 3D array
A = [0,2;1,0];
B = [2,0;1,0];
C = [2,1;0,0];
Z = cat(3,A,B,C)
% find returns indices of all non zero indices.
linear_indices_1 = find(Z==1)
% caluculation the row , column and depth of linear index 2
[row, col, dimension] = ind2sub(size(Z), 2)
Please refer to the following MATLAB documentation for more details on 'find' and 'ind2sub' functions

Hope this helps.
