See my Image Segmentation Tutorial in my File Exchange:

Image Analyst's File Exchange

It's a generic, general purpose demo of how to threshold an image to find bright blobs, and then measure things about the blobs, and extract certain blobs based on their areas or diameters.

Be sure and ask regionprops for the centroid.

props = regionprops(mask, 'Centroid');
xyCentroids = vertcat(props.Centroid);

Run this on each image to find the centroids in each image so you get xyCentroids1 and xyCentroids2. You can find the distances between the list of (x,y) centroids in each picture using pdist2 or just the sqrt function.

distances = pdist2(xyCentroids1, xyCentroids2)
