Help with shape descriptors

Hello Scikit community,
I'm looking for help using particle descriptors to identify sickle cells in
the attached image. As you can see the sickle cells are the long, thin
cells. I have two issues, the first is that in some cases the sickle cells
are in contact with other healthy cells. I am trying to find a way of
separating (or water-shedding) the cells so that each "particle" is
actually one cell. The second issue is that I am dealing with is trying to
find shape descriptors that will allow me to accurately distinguish the
sickle cells from the healthy cells.
I used an eccentricity filter on the original image to remove all of the
cells with eccentricity less than 0.6. Making this any higher results in
removal of sickle cells. What other descriptors might be used for further
differentiation?
Thanks, Clay
