Hi ..Actlly my intrest in image processing has just started growing thru matlab..
I have take an image which contains cells woth nuclei inside. It was a color image so i converted it to gray scale image. I find it hard to process ,so i converted it to binary image. NOw after connverting it binary image, im not able to plot boundaries of it properly as compared to ur coins boundary tracing example. can u help me out plz.

My aim is to sort out the round cells in image and count them.

Can you show us your images?
Take a look at:
>>doc bwboundaries
>>doc edge

If you want to measure "circularity" one easy way would be to take the (actual area)/(pi*equivdiameter/4) which would measure the the shape compared to an ideal circle. Both actual area and equivdiameter are outputs of regionprops().

Thanks for showing your interest:

My image is : http://i29.tinypic.com/4qt1tk.jpg

Its a color image . It has got a cirular red blood cells and a big white cell in a different color. I want to count those red cells excluding all other white cells.

I think Sean meant pi*equivdiameter^2/4
