Transfer function analysis assesses resting cerebral perfusion metrics using hypoxia-induced deoxyhemoglobin as a contrast agent [PDF]
Introduction: Use of contrast in determining hemodynamic measures requires the deconvolution of an arterial input function (AIF) selected over a voxel in the middle cerebral artery to calculate voxel wise perfusion metrics.

Assessment of cerebrovascular function in patients with sickle cell disease using transfer function analysis [PDF]
In patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), the delivery of oxygen to the brain is compromised by anemia, abnormal rheology, and steno‐occlusive vascular disease. Successful compensation depends on an increase in oxygen supply such as that provided by an

Continuous wavelet based transfer function analysis of cerebral autoregulation dynamics for neuromonitoring using near-infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
IntroductionNear-infrared spectroscopy is now a popular method in neuromonitoring. Derived parameters like cerebral oxygenation index or Fast Fourier Transform based coherence estimates between blood pressure and cerebral blood flow have their ...

Transfer function analysis in epi-illumination Fourier ptychography [PDF]
This Letter explores Fourier ptychography (FP) using epi-illumination. The approach effectively modifies the FP transfer function to be coherent-like out to the incoherent limit of twice the numerical aperture over the wavelength 2NA/λ. Images reconstructed using this approach are shown to have higher contrast at finer details compared with images ...

Differentiating Dynamic Cerebral Autoregulation Across Vascular Territories
Objective: Transcranial Doppler is commonly used to calculate cerebral autoregulation, but measurements are typically restricted to a single cerebral artery.

Does depth of squat‐stand maneuver affect estimates of dynamic cerebral autoregulation?
Repeated squat‐stand maneuvers (SSM) are an effective way of measuring dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA), but the depth of SSM required to improve dCA estimations has never been studied.
