select a pixel on the grayscale image to get a mask

I would need to understand how to select the pixel from the figure on the left (e.g., with the ginput command) in order to get the figure on the right.

I am currently using this demo by Image Analyst, but I would like to select the region of interest when the original grayscale image appears.

% Check if file exists.
if ~exist(fullFileName, 'file')
% The file doesn't exist -- didn't find it there in that folder.
% Check the entire search path (other folders) for the file by stripping off the folder.
fullFileNameOnSearchPath = baseFileName; % No path this time.
if ~exist(fullFileNameOnSearchPath, 'file')
% Still didn't find it. Alert user.
errorMessage = sprintf('Error: %s does not exist in the search path folders.', fullFileName);
uiwait(warndlg(errorMessage));
return;
end
end
grayImage = imread(fullFileName);
% Get the dimensions of the image.
% numberOfColorChannels should be = 1 for a gray scale image, and 3 for an RGB color image.
[rows, columns, numberOfColorChannels] = size(grayImage);
if numberOfColorChannels > 1
% It's not really gray scale like we expected - it's color.
fprintf('It is not really gray scale like we expected - it is color\n');
% Extract the blue channel.
grayImage = rgb2gray(grayImage);
end
% Display the image.

Hi Alberto,
I understand that you want to interactively select pixels in figures for certain masking application. The code you posted require two coordinate values: one for low threshold and another for high threshold.
You can achieve it through ‘ginput’ function with argument n=2 for high and low threshold. Note that first point you select will correspond to high threshold. Refer to the code below: -
%--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
% Threshold to create mask
%lowThreshold = 31;
%highThreshold = 255;
[threshold_x, threshold_y] = ginput(2);
highThreshold = grayImage(uint8(threshold_x(1)), uint8(threshold_y(1))); %lighter area
lowThreshold = grayImage(uint8(threshold_x(2)), uint8(threshold_y(2))); %darker area
Using the code, I'm getting following result.

For more information on ginput, you can refer to this documentation page: Identify axes coordinates - MATLAB ginput (mathworks.com)
