How to calculate diameter from side view?

Hi!
Imagine we have a side view of a circular object such as a coin. How can I accurately calculate the diameter of an object from side view image?
The simple thing is that the user determines the two sides (left and right) of the object as the diameter, but is there another way that MATLAB can detect it automatically and accurately?
Thanks!
Steven

To calculate the diameter accurately, you need the parameter of the optical system and the distance also, when you want the real extent.

I don't know what you mean by side view. Do you mean like front side and back side (head side and tail side), or do you mean like an "edge-on" view, so that it looks like a rod or stick? Either way, you need to get a binary image of the object and then use regionprops to get the length or diameter of it. Post an image so we can see it. regionprops gives the answer in pixels. If you need real world units, like Jan brought up, then see my attached spatial calibration demo, below in blue text.

How can you crop if you don't know what size it is yet? Anyway, adjusting contrast by a linear stretch like imadjust() or non-linearly with histeq() won't help at all. You'd need more sophisticated things, like morphological filters like imopen().
