I know nothing about this file format, but 42025472 divided by 50 divided by
65536 (the number of pixels per slice) yields 12.82515625 bytes per pixel.
I'm guessing this is really 12 bytes per pixel, plus the header (actually,
this ends up leaving 2703872 bytes for the header, so I'm not sure this is
right either). How the 12 bytes are used is beyond me. A pair of
Pascal-style 6-byte reals, maybe?
