MATLAB: How to Open file with GUI’s axes multiple times

getting startedguiguidematlab gui

Hi,
With the code below i'm able to read a file via GUI when a button is pressed. The code pop out a windows that enable user to search for file. However now, instead of using a push botton, i want to use axes. when user click on an axes, a pop out window will come out asking user to search for file (similar to File>> Open File), then display the image on my axes. How do i write the code for my axes function?
function btnGetFile_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject    handle to btnGetFile (see GCBO)
% eventdata  reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles    structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)
global fullpath;
[filename,pathname]= uigetfile(...
    {'*.bmp;*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.tif;*.tiff;*.png','All Image Files(*.bmp,*.jpg,*.jpeg,*.tif,*.tiff,*.png)';...
    '*bmp','bitmap Files (*.bmp)';...
    '*.jpg;*.jpeg','JPEG Files(*.jpg,*.jpeg)';...
    '*.tif;*.tiff','Tiff Files(*.tif,*.tiff)';...
    '*png','PNG Files (*.png)';...
    '*.*','All Files (*.*)'}, ...
    'Pick an image file');
fullpath = sprintf('%s%s',pathname, filename);
set(handles.editFile, 'string',fullpath);
Thanks

% --- Executes on mouse press over axes background.
function axes1_ButtonDownFcn(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject    handle to axes1 (see GCBO)
% eventdata  reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles    structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)
[FileName,PathName] = uigetfile({'*.jpg';'*.bmp';'*.gif';'*.tif'},'Select the image')
cb=get(gca,'ButtonDownFcn');
if (~strcmp(class(FileName),'double'))
A = imread(fullfile(PathName,FileName));
imagesc(A)
end
%restore the ButtonDownFcn of the axes that imagesc removed
set(gca,'ButtonDownFcn',cb)
set(get(gca,'Children'),'ButtonDownFcn',cb)
