Off topic:Extracting reads from multiple regions

Question

[Ron]

Hi,

I want to extract reads from bam file using Samtools view from multiple regions.The regions I have are present in the VCF file,which I want to use.So there are not a small number of regions.Is there any way to do this in Samtools view.

for e.g inputting a file in some format in Samtools view?

Thanks
