Export pixel values for specific segmentation in text file

Hello, I am a new user and currently segmenting a ct dicom file. I am trying to export a .txt file with the pixel values of the segmented volume, in order to define spatially varying material properties in simulations. I wonder if such a feature is available. It may be something quite simple but I have not managed to resolve it yet. Thanks in advance for your input.

Reading voxel values from text file would be 10-100x slower than reading from a binary file. Why would you like to write to text file instead the current binary format? What software will read the file?

Thanks for the immediate response. I have segmented the CT data and exported the segmented volume in stl file. The stl was imported in comsol and now I need to define material properties as functions of spatial coordinates (within the same segment/domain). The property value for each spatial coordinate will be derived from the corresponding voxel value through a correlation function, so this is why I think that the text file is required. Of course maybe a better approach that I am not aware of is available.
