MATLAB: How to calculate a cumulative sum in a loop

additioncumsumcumulative sumfor looploopsum

I have a loop that looks like this:
for a = 1: 9
for b = 1 : 1000
for c = 1 : 1000
image = myimage_bands(b, c, a);
new_image = image * 5;
end
end
end
I am trying to find the cumulative sum of my variable 'new_image', as it goes through the loop. I've tried cumsum, but it doesn't work.
Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks!

Before the loop,
image_sum = [];
inside the loop after you have calculated new_image,
if isempty(image_sum)
image_sum = new_image;
else
image_sum(end+1) = image_sum(end) + new_image;
end
