Is it a result of k-means clustering? If so, you can count each color pixel easily by using the output variable of kmeans function.

yes it is. I see, in conclusion i can just obtain the values from there as it is the value of each segmented color?

Take the histogram of your segmented/classified image

counts = imhist(classifiedImage);

Each class will have a certain value, like gray matter is 1, background is 0, white material is 2, etc. imhist() simply counts the pixels in each class.

imhist() will do it. You pass in the classified image, not an RGB image, but the image you got from kmeans. See attached demo.

Do you still not understand? If so, give me the script you used to create that image along with the original image.
