I would start by using the function xlsread() to read in the specified excel file and the range of where the image is create. Then using the == comparison you can then create the different color layers. example:
[num txt raw] = xlsread(____,____)
raw = cell2mat(raw);
Img(:,:,1) = 20==raw | isnan(raw);
Img(:,:,2) = 30==raw | isnan(raw);
Img(:,:,3) = 40==raw | isnan(raw);

well what have you tried? you can work with colormaps to define colors like
IMG = raw;
IMG(isnan(IMG))=0;
numcolor = length(unique(IMG(:)));
colors = hsv(numcolor-1);
colors= [1 1 1;colors]; %set value of 0 to be white
imagesc(IMG)
colormap(colors)

Get RGB components from previous excel sheet, display them and retreive original image
[file,Path]=uigetfile('*.xlsx','Select excel file of image matrix '); file=fullfile(Path,file); red=xlsread(file, 'A1:GR200'); green=xlsread(file, 'A201:GR400'); blue=xlsread(file, 'A401:GR600'); figuresubplot(3,2,1); imshow(red,[]); imwrite(uint8(red),'red.jpg'); t1=imread('red.jpg'); title('red channel') subplot(3,2,2); imshow(green,[]); imwrite(uint8(green),'green.jpg'); t2=imread('green.jpg'); title('green channel') subplot(3,2,3); imshow(blue,[]); imwrite(uint8(blue),'blue.jpg'); title('blue channel') t3=imread('blue.jpg'); subplot(3,2,5); im=cat(3, t1, t2, t3); imshow(im) title('retreived image')
