Decode a part of Bitmap from file in Android

Question

I have a file with a very large image: for example 9000x9000. I can't load the Bitmap in memory because the heap size. But I only need to display a small part of this bitmap for example the rect width=100-200 and height =200-400 (resulting size of the sub-bitmap =100x200) How can I retrieve this bitmap from the file? Note: I dont want to lose quality in the 100x200 image Thanks
