I don't think there _are_ any non-partition bits on a disk. My copy 
of Macrium shows two partitions with a label of "(None)" and one with 
"NO NAME".
 
In my copy of Macrium, there are three options under "Create 
Backups":

* Image selected disks on this computer. (And you're correct, 
"disks" here means partitions.)

* Create an image of the partition(s) needed to backup and restore 
Windows.

* Create a File and Folder backup.

The middle option seems like what you want. 

Now I have Macrium 8. If you have an earlier Macrium that doesn't 
have that middle option, I'll bet that checking C and all system 
partitions will do what you need. System partitions are typically 
under half a GB, so they should be easy enough to identify.
