Find local minima in greyscale image

Hi, I have a set of greyscale images where I need to find the local minima (example attached), and my idea is to approach the problem using the watershed method. If I apply it directly to the greyscale image I have oversampling issues, and I haven't found any example dealing with a similar problem. Do you have any suggestion on how to proceed? Thanks!

check imregionalmin() and imregionalmax()

Alternatively you can check detectmserfeatures() if you are looking for regions.

Thanks! I'm playing with detectmserfeatures() and it seems we're almost there!
