Dear Carlo,
many years ago I did something similar on breast ducts, using  
neighborhood graphs:

Beltrami CA, Della Mea V, Finato N. Structure analysis of breast  
lesions using neighborhood graphs.
Anal Quant Cytol Histol. 1995 Apr;17(2):143-50.

At that time, I acquired images using an IBAS system, where I also did  
some pre-processing, and then created graphs on a Macintosh, with a  
software system developed by me in Pascal. It was a relatively hard  
computational task, but I suppose now will be faster.
I'll look among by backups to find out the paper, if you need it.
