Can I get raw camera data in matlab (before any conversion)

I am using a 14bit thermal camera, but it advertises itself as YUYV. I know this is not the format the camera is using and I can decode and convert this data to the 14bit gray scale if I have the data. Matlab captures the image and then "converts" it to RGB or YUV to get nonsense data. I know the camera format is the root cause but I need a way round this,

Is there a way to get the camera raw data in Matlab (without it being converted to YUV or RGB)? Or is there a way to tell Matlab to ignore the format and see it as 16bit gray (could even live with 8bit gray if all the data was there).

There is little chance of the camera manufacture changing the advertised format to gray 16. (I have all the image add-ons if required)

Exploded all doc's and add-ons, nothing there.
