Displays Open Image dialog box

Syntax

```
[filename, user_canceled] = imgetfile
```

Description

[filename, user_canceled] = imgetfile displays the Open Image dialog box for the user to fill in, and returns the full path to the file selected in filename. If the user presses the Cancel button, user_canceled will be TRUE. Otherwise, user_canceled will be FALSE.

The Open Image dialog box is modal; it blocks the MATLAB command line until the user responds. The file types listed in the dialog are all formats listed in imformats plus DICOM.
