Near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non‐invasive method for monitoring oxygen
availability and utilization by the tissues. In intact skeletal muscle, NIRS allows semi …

Imaging the interior of living bodies with light may assist in the diagnosis and treatment of a
number of clinical problems, which include the early detection of tumors and hypoxic …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can be used to noninvasively measure changes in the
concentrations of oxy-and deoxyhemoglobin in tissue. We have previously shown that while …

Background Cerebral oximetry is a noninvasive bedside technology using near-infrared light
to monitor cerebral oxygen saturation (Sco2) in an uncertain mixture of arteries, capillaries …

Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can detect changes in the concentrations of oxy-
hemoglobin ([HbO]) and deoxy-hemoglobin ([Hb]) in tissue based upon differential …

✓ Monitoring of cerebral oxygenation is considered to be of great importance in minimizing
secondary hypoxic and ischemic brain damage following severe head injury. Although the …

BACKGROUND: Patients undergoing shoulder surgery in the beach chair position (BCP)
may be at risk for adverse neurologic events due to cerebral ischemia. In this investigation …

Detection of cerebral hypoxia–ischemia remains problematic in neonates. Near-infrared
spectroscopy, a noninvasive bedside technology has potential, although thresholds for …

Cerebral oximeters based on near-infrared spectroscopy may provide a continuous,
noninvasive assessment of cerebral oxygenation. We evaluated a prototype cerebral …

Near-infrared neuromonitoring (NIN) is based on near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)
measurements performed through the intact scalp and skull. Despite the important effects of …
