Preferred term

functional near-infrared spectroscopy  

Definition

  • “a non-invasive functional brain imaging technique that detects hemodynamic changes in the human cortex […] Based on the optical absorption properties of blood hemoglobin, fNIRS enables calculation of concentration changes in oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO) and deoxygenated hemoglobin (HHb), which are indicators of cortical activation.” (Talamonti et al., 2020).

Entry terms

  • fNIRS
  • functional near-infrared imaging
