how to space overlapping labels in plot

Dear all,
I´m analyzing MRI data and need to plot the intensity values and behavioural scores of a single voxel from a sample of patients. To label the data points, I used the identifier for each patient.
However, even if I decrease the font size for the labels, they overlap for those data points in close spatial proximity. I have tried to get around this by modifying the plot box and data aspect ratio but haven´t solved the problem yet.
I´d really appreciate if someone in the forum could help me with this since I´m sure it will be a recurrent issue in the future.
Here´s the main code I used for the plot. You can find the plot attached.
x=Syl_FJ12_PERC_MODEL_TP1.beh_cov;
y=cell2mat(pa_int_fixed(:,2));
label=pa_int_fixed(:,1);
figure
plot(x,y, '.r','MarkerSize', 15)
text(x, y, label,'fontSize',8);
title ('VBM Sanity check'), ylabel('GM Intensity Peak Voxel (-36 15 -33) Temp_Pole_Mid_L'), xlabel ('Syl JK12 Perc Model')
Thanks in advance for your time,
Noelia

If you want somebody to perhaps take a shot at it, attach a dataset that reproduces the problem.
