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 …

Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) is emerging as a viable new biomedical imaging modality.
Using near‐infrared (NIR) light, this technique probes absorption as well as scattering …

Background Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest is a widely used technique in pediatric
cardiac surgery that carries a risk of neurologic injury. Previous work in neonates identified …

Driving a motor vehicle requires various cognitive functions to process surrounding
information, to guide appropriate actions, and especially to respond to or integrate with …

Discussion This is the first series of pediatric patients with moyamoya syndrome in which
both the surgical and anesthetic management were standardized. Although the primary …

This study tests a multiwavelength frequency-domain near-infrared oximeter (fdNIRS) in an
in vitro model of the human brain. The model is a solid plastic structure containing a vascular …

Near-infrared spectroscopy is a noninvasive monitoring technique that allows quantitative
measurement of changes in cerebral oxygenated Hb (HbO 2), deoxygenated Hb (Hb), total …

The hemodynamic response to seizure has long been a topic for discussion in association
with the neuronal damage resulting from convulsion. Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is an …

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) increases neuronal energy consumption and alters
systemic hemodynamics. We examined the effects of ECT on regional cerebral oxygen …

Objective: Previous work has found cerebral oxygen extraction to decrease during
hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass in children. To elucidate cardiopulmonary bypass …
