Dear All;
I have an image of three layer, I need to calculate the area of each of them , I use the regionprop to do that but I got only numbers but I need to know that for Layer 1 has x area and layer 2 has y area , so, how can I know that ?

I'm not sure what you're asking. You said you used regionprops to get the areas. You just need to do this one layer (image) at a time and sum up the areas
thisLayersMeasurements = regionprops(labeledImage, 'Area');
allAreas = [thisLayersMeasurements.Area] % There might be multiple regions.
sumOfAllAreas = sum(allAreas);
repeat the above for each layer image.

Thank you man for your answer My question is not to find the area of each region but to give label to each one , either by text or color . For example, I have three layers on top of each other and i want to give blue color to the top one ,red for the middle and green for the bottom one , how can i do that

Use the function label2rgb().
