How to insert image in MatLab

I want to insert an image at (0,0) on a plot. How would I do this and how can I determine the size? And also do I need to convert the image to a png?

Thanks!

imread() can import whole bunch of graphical data types, including .jpg and .png. Conversion to .png, as you ask, is not necessary.

img = imread('filename.png');
image(img);

To alter the size/positioning of the image within your figure, you can touch the underlying axes object:

x = 0;
y = 0;
width = 0.5;% measured relative to the figure width
height = 0.5;% measured relative to the figure height
set(gca,'units','normalized','position',[x y width height])
