How to remove thin lines from the following image?

I am trying to isolate the circular droplets in the following image. However, I can't work out how to remove the thin lines of the chambers and if I just apply imfindcircles to the binarized image it does not provide me with what I need no matter how I tweak it. It keeps finding the empty chambers as circles (even though they are not complete circles) and it sometimes finds the odd shaped droplets and the droplets that are larger than the chambers (and therefore, not circular) as circles.
Once I isolate the circles I will track them over a few thousand images and monitor the mean gray level but I know how to do that.
Thanks in advance

What happens if you do a morphological thinning operation with a width that erases the thin lines but leaves the thicker lines present ?

Try using the 3rd output of imfindcircles (metric) to distinguish the bigger droplets that aren't really circles.
