Circularity of an image

I am trying to find circularity for my shape feature requirement in MRI image classification. I have used the matlab function REGIONPROPS to find area and perimeter and the circularity formula: 4*pi*area/(perimeter)^2.
My problem is i am getting perimeter as 0 value for many regions in an image. Then circularity will become infinite. I have attached a screenshot of perimeter values i am getting for a single image. Someone please suggest me how to calculate circularity in such case???

does it have to be circularity?
Can you replace circularity with the ratio between major/minor axis length?

The sizes are in pixels. So if your images don;t have the same spatial pixel size then 1pixel in first image could refer to 1meter, in the second image one pixel refers to 10meter (well the numbers are just examples).
So the sizes never come out exactly the same.
But why it is giving too many zeros. I don't know. I have to check the image and then perhaps I may find out.

What is the area of the blobs that have zero perimeter? Is it 1? Like 1 pixel? If so, maybe you just don't want to consider those. You can use bwareaopen() to filter out tiny things. By the way, I use the inverse of your equation.
allAreas = [measurements.Area];
allPerimeters = [measurements.Perimeter];
circularities = allPerimeters .^ 2 ./ (4 * pi * allAreas);
Of course zero perimeter is not a problem there.

It's an integer valued image. You can display it as a grayscale image if you want
imshow(labeledImage, []);
Or you can pseudocolor the blobs and show that:
% Assign labeled blobs rainbow colors.
coloredLabels = label2rgb (labeledImage, 'hsv', 'k', 'shuffle');
imshow(coloredLabels);
