Cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has long represented an exciting prospect for
the noninvasive monitoring of cerebral tissue oxygenation and perfusion in the context of …

We have measured the bulk optical properties of healthy female breast tissues in vivo in the
parallel plate, transmission geometry. Fifty-two volunteers were measured. Blood volume …

A simple continuous wave near-infrared algorithm for estimating local hemoglobin oxygen
saturation in tissue (% StO 2) is described using single depth attenuation measurements at …

Purpose Receptor availability represents a key component of current cancer management.
However, no approaches have been adopted to do this clinically, and the current standard of …

We present a systematic characterization of the optical properties (µ_a and µ_s') of nine
representative ex vivo porcine tissues over a broadband spectrum (650-1100 nm). We …

Introduction The tissue hemoglobin index (THI) is a hemoglobin signal strength metric
provided on the InSpectra™ StO 2 Tissue Oxygenation Monitor, Model 650. There is …
