How to create a 3d stack of multiple images in Matlab

Can someone help with creating a 3D stack in Matlab. I have used this line of codes, but it seems that my code stacks up the same image as many times as specified.

clear all;
Imatrix = []; 
for i=1:500
  images{i} = imread(sprintf('0001.tif',i));
  Imatrix = cat(3, Imatrix, images{i});
end

I have a folder containing 500 images, and i want to stack the images serially as named.

Thanks

How your images are named?

So, the code above generates a 3D matrix, which is what i want, but rather than selecting each element in my directory folder sequentially, the matrix generated contains same image 500 times.

Is there any method to visualise the stack you have created in a 3D manner

      images{i} = imread(sprintf('%04d.tif',i));

Thanks, i made the correction on the 4th.

Depending on how your images are named, this line of code should look like

images{i} = imread(sprintf('000%d.tif',i));
