This review summarises the ways in which magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and
related methods can be used as windows on brain energy metabolism in vivo. 31P-MRS can …

The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the methods available for imaging
tissue oxygenation. The following imaging methods are reviewed: phosphorescence, near …

Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) both
allow non‐invasive monitoring of cerebral cortical oxygenation responses to various stimuli …

The present study investigated the short-and long-term retest reliability of brain activity
measured with functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) during verbal fluency, the most …

Measuring the hemodynamic response with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)
together with functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) may overcome limitations of …

Non-invasive mapping of cerebral perfusion is critical for understanding neurovascular and
neurodegenerative diseases. However, perfusion MRI methods cannot be easily …

The blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging
(fMRI) method, which is sensitive to vascular paramagnetic deoxyhemoglobin, is dependent …

During a breath hold (BH) challenge, functional MR imaging using flow-sensitive alternating
inversion recovery (FAIR) and blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) contrast was …

Background: To understand brain function in health and disease, functional magnetic
resonance imaging (fMRI) is widely used in rodent models. Because animals need to be …

A novel magnetic-resonance-coupled broadband near-infrared (NIR) tomography system for
small animal brain studies is described. Several features of the image formation approach …
