This review celebrates the 30th anniversary of the first in vivo near-infrared (NIR)
spectroscopy (NIRS) publication, which was authored by Professor Frans Jöbsis. At first …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), which was originally designed for clinical monitoring of
tissue oxygenation, has been developing into a useful tool for neuroimaging studies …

Although near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was developed as a tool for clinical monitoring
of tissue oxygenation, it also has potential for neuroimaging. A wide range of different NIRS …

The near-infrared radiation (NIR) window, also known as the “optical window” or
“therapeutic window”, is the range of wavelengths that has the maximum depth of …

This review is aimed at celebrating the upcoming 20th anniversary of the birth of human
functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). After the discovery in 1992 that the functional …

Although near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was originally designed for clinical monitoring

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a new technique for non-invasive monitoring of tissue
oxygenation and its kinetics. Up to this date, it has been used solely in research for the …

This year marks the 20th anniversary of functional near-infrared spectroscopy and imaging
(fNIRS/fNIRI). As the vast majority of commercial instruments developed until now are based …

This review presents a practical primer for functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) with
respect to technology, experimentation, and analysis software. Its purpose is to jump-start …

The purpose of the this article is to describe an emerging neuroimaging technology,
