Near-Infrared Spectroscopy [PDF]
Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is an imaging technique used in both clinical and emergency medicine, as well as in research laboratories to quantify and measure the oxygenation status of human tissue non-invasively. This is done by monitoring in vivo changes of the oxygen saturation of hemoglobin molecules in the body, based on the absorbance of ...

Speeded near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) response detection. [PDF]
The hemodynamic response measured by Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) is temporally delayed from the onset of the underlying neural activity. As a consequence, NIRS based brain-computer-interfaces (BCIs) and neurofeedback learning systems, may have a ...

Near-Infrared Photoimmunotherapy of Cancer [PDF]
This Account is the first comprehensive review article on the newly developed, photochemistry-based cancer therapy near-infrared (NIR) photoimmunotherapy (PIT). NIR-PIT is a molecularly targeted phototherapy for cancer that is based on injecting a conjugate of a near-infrared, water-soluble, silicon-phthalocyanine derivative, IRdye700DX (IR700), and a ...

Progress of Near-Infrared-Based Medical Imaging and Cancer Cell Suppressors
Diffuse optical tomography, an imaging modality that utilizes near-infrared light, is a new way to assess soft tissue. It provides a non-invasive screening of soft tissue, such as the breast in females and prostate in males, to inspect the existence of ...

First Detection of Near-Infrared Intraday Variations in the Seyfert 1 Nucleus NGC4395
We carried out a one-night optical V and near-infrared JHK monitoring observation of the least luminous Seyfert 1 galaxy, NGC4395, on 2004 May 1, and detected for the first time the intraday flux variations in the J and H bands, while such variation was ...
