“…Because the wavelengths commonly used in NIRS are capable of penetrating through the superficial soft tissue layers of the head and skull with minimal absorption [1][2][3], returning scattered light can be detected and the relative oxygenation of the cerebral cortex can be calculated. When multiple wavelengths are used simultaneously, it is possible to quantify the relative concentrations of oxygenated hemoglobin (oxyHb), deoxygenated hemoglobin (deoxyHb), and their sum, total hemoglobin (total-Hb) [4,5].…”

“…Cerebral oxygenation is also affected by many other variables. These include arterial, venous and capillary saturation, the partition ratio between the arterial and venous components of the cerebral vasculature, cerebral blood volume and possibly scalp blood flow [10,16,17]. It is possible that the bias and variability between the two monitors may in part be related to the different way in which these factors are included in the methodologies employed.…”

“…, 59, pages 453-458 . ..................................................................................................................................................................................................................... varying proportions of intra-and extracranial tissue and arterial, venous and capillary compartments [10,[20][21][22][23]. Since autoregulation keeps cerebral blood flow constant except for serious haemodynamic instability, this implicates changes in the vascular component due to vasodilation and vasoconstriction.…”
