Time-resolved near-infrared spectroscopy allows for depth-selective determination of
absorption changes in the adult human head that facilitates separation between cerebral …

We report on multidistance time-resolved diffuse reflectance spectroscopy of the head of a
healthy adult after intravenous administration of a bolus of indocyanine green. Intracerebral …

NIRS signals measured on the adult head contain contributions from the brain and from
overlying tissue. It was shown recently that measured distributions of times of flight (DTOF) of …

Measurement of the brain activity is essential for the understanding of brain function and
potentially for the diagnosis of brain pathologies. Human brain activity is accompanied by …

A novel method for the determination of the optical properties of tissue from time-domain
measurements is presented. The data analysis is based on the evaluation of the first …

Time-resolved (TR) techniques provide a means of discriminating photons based on their
time-of-flight. Since early arriving photons have a lower probability of probing deeper tissue …

Functional near infrared spectroscopy has been used in recent decades to sense and
quantify changes in hemoglobin concentrations in the human brain. This noninvasive …

Near infrared (NIR) light has been widely used for measuring changes in hemoglobin
concentration in the human brain (functional NIR spectroscopy, fNIRS). fNIRS is based on …

Time-resolved diffuse optical methods have been applied to detect hemodynamic changes
induced by cerebral activity. We describe a near infrared spectroscopic (NIRS) …

A theoretical approach is presented to determine absorption changes in different
compartments of a layered structure from distributions of times of flight of photons. In addition …
