Just recently discovered ImageJ as fantastic program for handling  
images. I am using the selection tool to trace and measure xy-
coordinates for subtle lines in x-rays . This works but I wonder if  
theres is anyway that you can get the xy-coordinates from a freehand  
(or even a segmented line) selection into a text/xls.file? I am using  
the xy-coordinates in matlab to determine the shortest distance  
between to traced lines on a x-ray - so if anyone know if this is a  
feature already build into ImageJ - or if something like that exist  
as a plugin - that would off course be even better.
Thank you in advance.
