Diameter and perimeter measurements

Hi All,

I was trying to use ImageJ to measure "diameter" and "perimeter" of cells in an image.
For diameter, I tried to draw straight line across the center of the cell and then <CTRL-M> for the results window..to find out that it shows exact same values for both the "length" and "perimeter".

Obviously the diameter mesurment is not given by "length" of line across the center of cells.
Is there any other way to actually measure the diameter of cell in image?

Thanks in advance,

Hemangi.
