Dear Maurice,

if, as you write now, the size of the second (circular) region is given,
a solution is possible.

Here is a suggestion that works for me:

1.
Make a (circular) selection according to the first (circular) region (ROI).

2.
Convolve with a (circular) disc function that corresponds to your second
region.

3.
Determine the maximum location of the resulting signal in the ROI.

4.
The maximum marks the center of the desired second (circular) region,
i.e. of the region with the maximum mean value.
