Systems and methods for obtaining anatomical-structure-specific activation data in a brain of a patient are provided. In an embodiment, a method for obtaining anatomical-structure-specific activation data in a brain of a patient includes receiving magnetic resonance (MR) data of the brain obtained by use of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) device; segmenting the MR data of the brain to delineate a plurality of geometries, each of the plurality of geometries corresponding to a respective anatomical structure in the brain; receiving functional magnetic resonance (fMRI) data of the brain obtained by use of an MRI device; aligning the MR data and the fMRI data; determining a plurality of activation levels, each of the activation levels corresponding to respective delineated geometries based on the aligned MR data and fMRI data; and outputting a graphical representation of a dynamic activity in the brain corresponding to the delineated geometries of the anatomical structures.
