A brief search of the archives:

http://search.gmane.org/search.php?group=gmane.science.biology.informatics.conductor&query=imagene

Suggest thats there is a `read.imagene` function in limma, so I'd start there.

I have no idea if it handles XML format -- which, I think, is a
surprising format to store microarray data, but ...

If it doesn't, perhaps you can parse the XML into the expected format,
and carry from there.

HTH,
