Lee Borland:
Well you've done the hard part - finding and isolating the cells (not easy in this kind of image, particularly when the overlap).  Now all you have to do is to analyze each cell for the perimeter squared divided by the area.  This will distinguish between your cells with smooth boundaries and those with the "horns."
Good luck,

P.S. Thanks for posting the image first.
