Assumning you have the row of the centroid (it looks like exactly half way in your image), just extract a row and find the max and half max and distance between them.
horizontalProfile = grayImage(row, :);
[maxGrayLevel, indexOfMax] = max(horizontalProfile)
halfWidth = indexOfMax - find(horizontalProfile == maxGrayLevel/2, 1, 'first');
If you don't know how to find the centroid, use regionprops(labeledImage, 'WeightedCentroid'). See my Image Segmentation Tutorial for a full demo: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/?term=authorid%3A31862

A lot depends on if it's circularly symmetric or not. If it is, just use cumsum() to get the cumulative energy and then find the 20% point from that:
cdf = cumsum(horizontalProfile(indexOfMax:end));
% Normalize
cdf = cdf / sum(cdf);
width80 = 2 * find(cdf <= 0.8, 1, 'first');
I think that should work but you'd have to check. There may have to be an adjustment because you want it in 2D rather than 1D. You may have to just create larger and larger circular masks with the FAQ until the sum inside the mask is 80%.
