1. A method of mapping a property associated with a sampling region using path integrated data, comprising the steps of:

  • (a) defining a sampling region in which at least one property associated with said sampling region will be mapped;

    (b) acquiring path integrated data for a plurality of paths within said sampling region;

    (c) reiteratively generating a cumulative distribution function of said at least one property associated with said sampling region from said path integrated data; and

    (d) using said cumulative distribution function to produce a map of said property for the sampling region.
