Utilization of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in clinical exercise testing to detect
microvascular abnormalities requires characterization of the responses in healthy …

The feasibility of non-invasive analysis of brain activities was studied in the attempt to
overcome the major limitation of actual in vivo methodologies ie invasiveness. Optic fibre …

Objective. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a promising non-invasive technique for the
continuous monitoring of tissue oxygen delivery. NIRS detects light absorbance of …

This study investigates a method using novel hybrid diffuse optical spectroscopies [near-
infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS)] to obtain …

A noninvasive oximeter that analyses the oxygen saturation of arterial blood in the fingertip
is described. The light, after attenuating the infrared portion to avoid thermal injury, is …

We estimated a blood flow index, O2 supply index, and O2 consumption index from near-
infrared (NIR) signals during venous occlusion imposed at rest and immediately after …

Measurement of respiratory muscle blood flow (RMBF) in humans has important implications
for understanding patterns of blood flow distribution during exercise in healthy individuals …

Using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and the tracer indocyanine green (ICG), we
quantified blood flow in calf muscle and around the Achilles tendon during plantar flexion (1 …

The purpose of this study is to develop a new method for the measurement in humans of the
compliance of the microvascular superficial venous system of the lower limb by near-infrared …

To determine whether blood hemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) could be measured
noninvasively as the ratio of pulsatile changes in attenuation (absorbance plus scatter) of …
