One easy way is to write a code for that ! (assumption: there is no dot (.) in the name of the image)

IMPORTANT NOTE : if you are using Windows, you have to change '/' to '\'.

 [filename, user_canceled] = imgetfile;
 if user_canceled==0
    L = filename=='/';
    m = find(L==1,1,'last');
    L = filename=='.';
    n = find(L==1,1,'last');
    str = filename(m+1:n-1)
 end

You can use the following code to make sure it works for Windows or other OSs :

 [filename, user_canceled] = imgetfile;
 if user_canceled==0
    if ispc
        L = filename=='\';
    else
        L = filename=='/';
    end

    m = find(L==1,1,'last');
    L = filename=='.';
    n = find(L==1,1,'last');
    str = filename(m+1:n-1)
 end

u can also use uigetfile() which return filename and its path. here we dont need imgetfile to get im file use

uigetfile('*.jpg');
