Hi Lenka

Potentially you could post a corresponding image from each channel to get
an idea how it looks like in real life. What you can use for an analysis
like this is the binary feature extractor from the BioVoxxel toolbox. You
can either use Fiji and activate the BioVoxxel update site or download the
packge from http://www.biovoxxel.de/macros.html.
Instructions are under
http://fiji.sc/BioVoxxel_Toolbox#Binary_Feature_Extractor

Instead of Rois you need 2 binary images to proceed. You can get those by
trying to figure out a suitable auto threshold for your images. If you post
some, I or the community might be able to guide you better through a
potential procedure.
