In Vivo Tissue Diagnosis for Myocardial Infarction Using Optical Spectroscopy with Novel Spectral Interpretation Algorithms

Intraoperative Guidance for Pediatric Brain Surgery based on Optical Techniques

“…Since the nature of the RTD is different from that of radially-dependent diffuse reflectance signal Rd(r) [88], the spectral interpretation algorithms [95,96] previously developed to extract the hemodynamic and structural properties from Rd(r) is no longer valid. In this study, a new spectral interpretation algorithm was developed for RTD spectra to extract the hemodynamic (hemoglobin concentration, [Hb], and oxygen saturation level, SatO2) and the structural (scattering) properties of the biological tissue.…”
