You can highlight the sections beforehand in an image editor like Photoshop,
or Aviary or another free image editor if you don't have Photoshop; save the
image as a highest-quality jpeg; then use After Effects to pan and zoom
across the sections. Google "ken burns effect" for tutorials and
descriptions of how to create the pan-and-zoom effect.
