摘要:
A non-invasive imaging system, including an imaging scanner suitable to generate an imaging signal from a tissue region of a subject under observation, the tissue region having at least one anatomical substructure and more than one constituent tissue type a signal processing system in communication with the imaging scanner to receive the imaging signal from the imaging scanner and a data storage unit in communication with the signal processing system, wherein the data storage unit is configured to store a parcellation atlas comprising spatial information of the at least one substructure in the tissue region, wherein the signal processing system is adapted to: reconstruct an image of the tissue region based on the imaging signal parcellate, based on the parcellation atlas, the at least one anatomical substructure in the image segment the more than one constituent tissue types in the image and automatically identify, in the image, a portion of the at least one anatomical substructure that correspond to one of the more than one constituent tissue type.
