A system, method, and apparatus includes a computer readable storage medium with a computer program stored thereon having instructions that cause a computer to access a first anatomical image data set of an imaging subject acquired via a morphological imaging modality, access a functional image data set of the imaging subject acquired via a functional imaging modality, register the first anatomical image data set to the functional image data set, segment the functional image data set based on the functional image data set, define a binary mask based on the segmented functional image data set, and apply the binary mask to the first anatomical image data set to construct a second anatomical image data set and an image based thereon. The second anatomical image data set is substantially free of image data of the first anatomical image data set correlating to an area outside the region of physiological activity.
