First of all, get rid of other stuff like background so that your initial ROI is just skin, not background clutter. Then I'd take a color channel, like the blue channel, and run a texture filter like stdfilt() or entropyfilt() on it. High texture areas will give a high signal. After that, it depends on exactly what you mean by "extract". Please describe your ambiguous use of this term. Do you want to extract out the bounding box of this image into another image? Do you want to mask the image so that only the wound shows up and all else is black? Do you want to make measurements like area, perimeter, and texture on it? Do you have some other definition?
