Matlab and ImageJ to Analyze Picture

Hello, I am currently doing an assignment where I have to use Matlab and ImageJ to detect if there is a fracture in a single image of a bone. Can anyone give me some lights to start this? I have to analyze the image and check for patterns to see if something is "out of order" with the bone.

Thanks in advance

Rui, first of all, ditch ImageJ and use only MATLAB. Next, go here to Vision Bibliography: VisionBib and find a paper that gives the algorithm for finding fractures in bone. Then code it up as best you can and come back here with any questions, AFTER you read this. Be sure to attach your image and your m-file.

The thing is that the assignment has to be done using ImageJ :/

Then go ask for help in an ImageJ forum, where you'll find more experts on ImageJ than you will here.

I already made the connection between ImageJ and Matlab. I can use getRoi to get a certain area. Don't know if that helps or not for you to be able to help me

You'll have to be more specific. I just don't know why you need your app to be a mixture of these two image analysis packages instead of just one or the other.
