Is HL integer or floating point? (Sorry, I'm not that familiar with wavelets.) And can PNG handle floating point - I don't know since I only use PNG for integer images.

Why do you need PNG format? If you just need to recall it in MATLAB, use a .mat file. Otherwise, if other programs, like Photoshop need to use it, then convert it to uint8.
image8 = uint8(255 * mat2gray(HLImage));
imwrite(image8, filename);
