Thank you all for the suggestions, I have started using the CurveAlignTool. My structures are "fibrillar" in a sense, they are the Z-discs of sarcomeres. Here I've attached a typical image. I would like to measure the angles between adjacent structures.

Fortunately, as biological data goes this is a fairly easy structure to mask.

If your particles are fiber-like, such as collagen, you might find this
CurveAlign tool interesting:

It is from my group, although I am not the one responsible for developing
it.

It is a good idea to post the link to the other half of the conversation,
so that everyone can follow it more easily. In this case, that is:

I agree: if you can post a sample image, that is very helpful for us to
make more targeted suggestions.
