Abstract:Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a valuable tool for noninvasive and quantitative analysis of biotissue, particularly within the spectral range of 670 to 1000 nm due to the inherent transparency. This technique facilitates the assessment of crucial chromophores including deoxyhemoglobin (Hb), oxyhemoglobin (HbO2) and the oxidized state of cytochrome c oxidase (CCO), enabling real-time evaluation of oxygenation and metabolism in human brain and other tissues in vivo. However, the influence of light scatteri… Show more
