There's no integrity checking in partimage, at least in the sense I think you're referring to. However, you could restore the backup with the --simulate flag passed to partimage, which would cause it to simulate restoring the backup. So far, I've never had an actual restoration of a backup with partimage go bad, after having the simulated restore go ok.
