Particle size using Skeleton

[KarinaFerreira]

Hey all,

I'm trying to figure out a method of analysing the size of the particles in the image:
 

I did lot of steps, and by the end, I skeletonized it, and  now I'm trying to grown to lines so they can thouch each other and form the particles (like lozenges). In that way, I can count and measure them.


How could I grow the lines? I've tried dilating it, but it didn't work.

Or, if by any change someone can come up with other method of measuring the size of the particles. It would be really helpful.


Thank you,
Karina.
