In conclusion, NIRS appears to offer both a new monitoring modality and new information
about cerebral oxygenation. Technical problems in the application of this technology persist …

The technology of transcranial near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) for the measurement of
cerebral oxygen balance was introduced 25 years ago. Until very recently, there has been …

THE USE OF NEAR-INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY (NIRS) has increased significantly
worldwide in the past decade. This technology, first described more than 40 years ago, is …

Near infrared spectroscopy is a relatively new technique for monitoring intracerebral oxygen
saturation. Using the technique, three episodes of cerebral hypoxia were detected during …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a technique that can be used as a noninvasive and
continuous monitor of the balance between cerebral oxygen delivery and consumption. The …

We have compared the effect of increasing optode separation (range 0.7-5.5 cm) on the
sensitivity of near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to discrete reductions in scalp and cerebral …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a noninvasive technology that continuously monitors
regional tissue oxygenation. Originally used for assessment of oxygen saturation of the …

Continuous real-time monitoring of the adequacy of cerebral perfusion can provide
important therapeutic information in a variety of clinical settings. The current clinical …

Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) measures tissue oxygenation continuously at the
bedside. Major disturbances of cerebral oxygenation can be detected by using NIRS, but the …

In the early 1960s, Norris introduced near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy (700–2500 nm) as an
analytical technique for agricultural products. In 1977, Jöbsis founded in vivo medical NIR …
