Thank you Tyler,

could you please explain your code a little bit. its doing the right thing but i am kind of confused

This is how I did but it involved a lot of steps and few manual edits as well.

list the directory tree
Code:
ls -R >ilist.txt

find the specific directory
Code:
cat ilist.txt |grep "_PET:$" |sed 's/:$//' > petdir.txt

create the new directory where the files are supposed to be moved
Code:
awk '{print "mkdir "$0"/Fitted_Data/"}' petdir.txt |sh

awk '{print $0"/Fitted_Data/"}' petdir.txt >petfit.txt
extract the key words
Code:
awk -F"zoca_" '{print substr($2,1,7)}' petdir.txt
grep -o -i  '[0-9]\{3\}[-_][0-9]\{2\}[Ab]' imgfiles.txt

sort files accordingly in excel and then move
Code:
awk '{print "mv "$3" "$1}' match_sort.txt |sh

i could have used sort -k 1,1 here

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       img-xbm - Img, X Windows Bitmap Format (xbm)

SYNOPSIS

       package require Tk

       package require img::xbm  ?1.4?

       image create photo ?name? ?options?

_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       The  package  img::xbm  is a sub-package of Img. It can be loaded as a part of the complete Img support, via package require Img, or on its
       own, via package require img::xbm.

       Like all packages of Img it does not provide new commands, but extends the existing Tk command image so that it supports  files	containing
       raster images in the X Windows Bitmap Format (xbm). More specifically img::xbm extends Tk's photo image type.

       The name of the new format handler is xbm.  This handler does not provide additional configuration options.

       All of the above means that in a call like

       image create photo ?name? ?options?

       [1]    Image data in xbm format (options -data and -file) is detected automatically.

       [2]    The format name xbm is recognized by the option -format.
