A method for the non-invasive imaging of an anatomic tissue structure in isolation from surrounding tissues, including: receiving from an input device magnetic imaging data from a patient of the anatomic tissue structure and surrounding tissues; segmenting the imaging data to isolate the anatomic tissue structure imaging data from the imaging data for the surrounding tissues; separating the anatomic tissue structure imaging data into data populations corresponding to tissue microstructures; constructing an image from the imaging data for at least one of the tissue microstructures; and storing or displaying the image. An apparatus embodying the disclosed method is also described, as well as a method for the quantitative measurement of a nerve tissue suspected of demyelination.
La présente invention concerne un procédé d'imagerie non invasive de structure tissulaire anatomique isolée des tissus environnants. On commence par prendre en compte des données d'imagerie magnétique provenant d'un appareil d'entrée, et concernant la structure tissulaire anatomique du patient, et les tissus environnants. On segmente ensuite les données d'imagerie de façon à isoler les données d'imagerie de la structure tissulaire anatomique par rapport aux données d'imagerie correspondant aux tissus environnants. On partage alors les données d'imagerie de la structure tissulaire anatomique en populations de données correspondant aux microstructures tissulaires. Il ne reste plus qu'à enregistrer ou afficher l'image. L'invention concerne également, non seulement un appareil assurant la mise en oeuvre du procédé de l'invention, mais aussi un procédé de mesure quantitative d'un tissu nerveux que l'on soupçonne de démyélination.
