Dear All,

I am in need of characterising alimentary paste, such as rigatoni and
fusilli. My basic need would be to characterise 1. the two dimensions of
the smallest circumscribed rectangle to each piece of pasta and 2. the
length of the skeleton of each piece of pasta and the distance between
the tips thereof.

I was looking for a ImageJ plugins doing 1. and 2. (or a related piece
of stuff that I could adapt for those purposes).

I would appreciate any suggestion you may give me.

Regards from
