Depth Sensitivity Analysis of high-density imaging arrays for mapping brain function with Diffuse Optical Tomography
Developing diffuse optical tomography methods for neuroimaging of humans is challenging due geometry and light level constraints. Analysis of multi-distant high-density imaging arrays shows the feasibility of imaging up to 20 mm depth within the adult brain. ©2008 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (170.6960) Tomography; (170.2655) Functional monitoring and imaging; (330.4270) Vision system...
متن کاملFunctional imaging of the human brain using a modular, fibre-less, high-density diffuse optical tomography system
We present the first three-dimensional, functional images of the human brain to be obtained using a fibre-less, high-density diffuse optical tomography system. Our technology consists of independent, miniaturized, silicone-encapsulated DOT modules that can be placed directly on the scalp. Four of these modules were arranged to provide up to 128, dual-wavelength measurement channels over a scalp...
متن کاملRetinotopic mapping of adult human visual cortex with high-density diffuse optical tomography.
Functional neuroimaging is a vital element of neuroscience and cognitive research and, increasingly, is an important clinical tool. Diffuse optical imaging is an emerging, noninvasive technique with unique portability and hemodynamic contrast capabilities for mapping brain function in young subjects and subjects in enriched or clinical environments. We have developed a high-performance, high-de...
متن کاملA quantitative spatial comparison of high-density diffuse optical tomography and fMRI cortical mapping
Functional neuroimaging commands a dominant role in current neuroscience research. However its use in bedside clinical and certain neuro-scientific studies has been limited because the current tools lack the combination of being non-invasive, non-ionizing and portable while maintaining moderate resolution and localization accuracy. Optical neuroimaging satisfies many of these requirements, but,...
متن کاملPhase-encoded retinotopy as an evaluation of diffuse optical neuroimaging
Optical techniques enable portable, non-invasive functional neuroimaging. However, low lateral resolution and poor discrimination between brain hemodynamics and systemic contaminants have hampered the translation of near infrared spectroscopy from research instrument to widespread neuroscience tool. In this paper, we demonstrate that improvements in spatial resolution and signal-to-noise, affor...
