how to get toggling effect in radio buttons?

This code creates 3 options for user but I want slight changes here.First by clicking option 1 it must display image in axes1. But after radio button is again toggled as if no choice is made that axes should not have same image it should be empty.
Sorry in figure I cant show the axes at right plane.
h = uibuttongroup('visible','off','Position',[0 0 .2 1]);
u0 = uicontrol('Style','Radio','String','Option 1',...
'pos',[10 350 100 30],'parent',h,'HandleVisibility','off');
u1 = uicontrol('Style','Radio','String','Option 2',...
'pos',[10 250 100 30],'parent',h,'HandleVisibility','off');
u2 = uicontrol('Style','Radio','String','Option 3',...
'pos',[10 150 100 30],'parent',h,'HandleVisibility','off');
set(h,'SelectionChangeFcn', 'disp selectionChanged');
set(h,'SelectedObject',[]); % No selection
set(h,'Visible','on');

preeti - please clarify what you mean by but after radio button is again toggled as if no choice is made that axes should not have same image it should be empty. Do you meant that if the user selects the radio button that has already been selected then the image should be cleared? You won't be able to capture the selection changed event because no selection will have changed (as you can't toggle the state of a single radio button).
Yes if the same radio button is pressed the image should be cleared and hence showing that no choice is made. How to do it?
This is not the standard behavior of radio buttons and this will confuse experineced computer users.
You have to implement the wanted behavior in the callback of the uibuttongroup. Did you try this already?

No I hav'nt tried it yet ...
Also, what Jan meant (I think): Usually people use checkboxes for such purpose.
