I know how to calculate the entropy of an RGB image.First ,vectorize the image and finally use it as a parameter of the entropy() function.

    image_vector = double(original_RGB_image(:));
    entropy_of_the_image = entropy(image_vector);

But what should we do to calculate the entropy of the region of interest of image?

I know one approach.Somehow,convert it into a black-white image(white=1) and use the inverse of the black-white image as a parameter of the original RGB image.I think,then the background color will be black .But it doesnot work.The background(sourrounding) became blue(something like that) instead of black? what should i do? Here is my code...

    a=imread('ISIC_0000001 w.jpg');
    a=imresize(a,[300 300]);
    mkr=a;
    figure,
    imshow(mkr);
    im=rgb2gray(a);
    level=graythresh(im);
    a=im2bw(im,level);
    figure,
    imshow(a);
    mkr(a)=nan;
    figure,
    imshow(mkr);
