The in-vivo optical properties of the human head are investigated in the 600–1100 nm range
on different subjects using continuous wave and time domain diffuse optical spectroscopy …

This review describes the unique opportunities and challenges for noninvasive optical
mapping of human brain function. Diffuse optical methods offer safe, portable, and radiation …

Functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a portable monitor of cerebral
hemodynamics with wide clinical potential. However, in fNIRS, the vascular signal from the …

The reproducibility of cerebral time-domain near-infrared spectroscopy (TD-NIRS) has not
been investigated so far. Besides, reference intervals of cerebral optical properties, of …

We compare two geometries of sources and detectors for optimizing the diffuse optical
imaging resolution of brain activation in humans. Because of limitations in the instruments' …

An accurate knowledge of tissue optical properties (absorption coefficients, μ a, and reduced
scattering coefficients, μ s') is critical for precise modeling of light propagation in biological …

Significance The conventional optical properties (OPs) reconstruction in spatial frequency
domain (SFD) imaging, like the lookup table (LUT) method, causes OPs aliasing and yields …

We report on the development of a scanning non-contact brain imager, based on a novel
technique in time-resolved near-infrared spectroscopy, ie the null source-detector distance …

In this chapter I will give a brief general introduction to optical imaging and then discuss in
more detail some of the methods specifically used for imaging cortical dynamics today …

Optical techniques are capable of cell-specific targeting, concurrent multimodal
measurements, and multiscale measurements with high temporal and spatial resolution …
