Integrating over concentric circular rings on an image

mal

I am trying to find a centroid on a frame, then integrate concentric circles until it hits the edge of the image or a selected region of interest.  I will then either save a (radius, integrated pixel count) in a text file, or perhaps even do some fitting or analysis of the integrated pixel counts before exporting them.  

I can do this by hand by selecting a circular ROI, stepping it out, and then keeping track of the total counts.  However, this gets difficult for a single image, and I am looking to do it for multiple files with 50-1000 frames.  It seems like there is probably a faster way to do it than with a macro, especially since I need to find the centroid for each frame, and output the results in a useful way.  I think I will have to crack open my "Intro to Java" book to do it right.
