Highlights
● Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) technology transmits a beam of near-infrared light through a transmitter to the brain.
● The changes in hemoglobin concentration and cerebral blood oxygen levels can be estimated using near-infrared light, by comparing the changes in light attenuation over time.
● This paper introduces the basic concept of measuring blood oxygen levels in brain tissue using NIRS technology, and presents the potential applications of the most recent developments in this field of study.
