1. A non-invasive imaging system, comprising:
- a non-invasive imaging scanner;
a signal processing unit in communication with said imaging scanner to receive an imaging signal from a subject under observation; and
a data storage unit in communication with said signal processing unit, wherein said data storage unit stores template data corresponding to a tissue region of said subject, andwherein said signal processing unit is adapted to generate a surface map to encode a property of a subvolume of said tissue region using said template data.
