Can I create a custom markersize for plotting?

Hi everyone. I am working on plotting a distribution of points. I need to plot custom sized points, however. Specifically, I have an image that I uploaded into MatLab, and on the image, there is a scale which represents 200 nanometers. From this scale and the imtool function, I can find how many pixels are in the 200 nanometers. With more calculations (I won't mention them), I can find how many pixels are in a particle that is 15 nanometers, in my case 7 pixels! Now, I want to plot these particles onto the image, with the corresponding diameter in pixels. So, instead of just doing ('MarkerSize',10), can I somehow plot points with a specified dimension?
Much appreciated!

If you are drawing lines, then you can only have one marker size for any given line object. The marker size is in points.
If you use scatter() then you can provide a vector of sizes, so as to give a different size for each marker. The marker size is in points. The documentation for scatter specifically indicates that it is the area that you give, so if you want a particular diameter, d, use pi*(d/2)^2

Thank you! This should do the trick!

can you give me an example? it is better to understand
