The near-infrared radiation (NIR) window, also known as the “optical window” or
“therapeutic window”, is the range of wavelengths that has the maximum depth of …

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was initiated in 1977 by Jobsis as a simple, noninvasive
method for measuring the presence of oxygen in muscle and other tissues in vivo. This …

To test the hypothesis that, during exercise, substantial heterogeneity of muscle hemoglobin
and myoglobin deoxygenation [deoxy (Hb+ Mb)] dynamics exists and to determine whether …

With the need for tools that assess microvascular status in diabetic foot disease (DFD) being
clear, near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a putative method for noninvasive testing of the …

Background and Purpose: In older people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), the effects
of aging and T2DM may compromise the function of skeletal muscle, deteriorate metabolic …

We employed near-infrared optical techniques, diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS), and
frequency-domain near-infrared spectroscopy (FD-NIRS) to test the hypothesis that …

The prevalence of diabetes complications is a significant public health problem with a
considerable economic cost. Thus, the timely diagnosis of complications and prevention of …

Purpose Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to determine whether reductions in
cardiac output and/or femoral arterial blood flow contribute to reduced aerobic capacity in …

OBJECTIVES: To assess near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) as a method for the diagnosis
and evaluation of peripheral vascular disease. SEARCH STRATEGY: MEDLINE and …

Background It is not clear whether subgroups of patients with peripheral artery disease
(PAD) and claudication respond more favorably to exercise rehabilitation than others. We …
