Time-resolved near-infrared spectroscopy is an optical technique which can be applied in
tissue oxygenation assessment. In the last decade this method is extensively tested as a …

A primary focus of neurointensive care is the prevention of secondary brain injury, mainly
caused by ischemia. A noninvasive bedside technique for continuous monitoring of cerebral …

One of the primary applications of diffuse optical imaging is to localize and quantify the
changes in the cerebral oxygenation during functional brain activation. Up to now, data from …

The seminal work of Grinvald et al. has paved the way for the use of intrinsic optical signals
measured with reflection methods for the analysis of brain function. Although this work has …

Diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) measurements of blood flow rely on the sensitivity of
the temporal autocorrelation function of diffusively scattered light to red blood cell (RBC) …

We combine two near-infrared diffuse optical techniques to study variations of blood flow,
haemoglobin concentration, and blood oxygen saturation in the functioning rat brain. Diffuse …

The acute onset of a neurological deficit is the key clinical feature of stroke. In most cases,
however, pathophysiological changes in the cerebral vasculature precede the event, often …

The present work describes the use of noninvasive diffuse optical tomography (DOT)
technology to measure hemodynamic changes, providing relevant information which helps …

For resolving absolute concentration of tissue chromophores in the human adult brain with
near-infrared spectroscopy it is necessary to calculate the light scattering and absorption, at …

In study of the brain, oxygenation changes in the cerebral cortex are increasingly monitored
using optical methods based on near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). When monitoring blood …
