Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has been used in studies of the cerebral hemodynamic
response to visual processing. In this paper, we present theoretical results from finite …

It is important for near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and imaging to estimate the sensitivity of
the detected signal to the change in hemoglobin that results from brain activation and the …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a noninvasive technique for continuous monitoring of
the amounts of total hemoglobin (total-Hb), oxygenated hemoglobin,(oxy-Hb) and …

Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) allows the ability to monitor brain activation
by measuring changes in the concentration of oxy-and deoxy-hemoglobin. Until now no …

Abstract Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) allows the recovery of the evoked
hemodynamic response to brain activation. In adult human populations, the NIRS signal is …

Previous modeling of near-infrared (NIR) light distribution in models of the adult head
incorporating a clear nonscattering cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) layer have shown the latter to …

One of the practical problems in neuroimaging using near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is to
choose an appropriate source-detector distance to maximize the sensitivity to cerebral blood …

Adequate modeling of light propagation in a human head is important for quantitative near-
infrared spectroscopy and optical imaging. The presence of a nonscattering cerebrospinal …

This paper gives an overview of principles, technologies, and applications using near
infrared spectrometry and imaging (NIRS and NIRI) to study brain function. The physical …

Using both experimental and theoretical methods, we examine the contribution of different
parts of the head to near-IR (NIR) signal. Time-resolved spectroscopy is employed to …
