Abstract :
Summary form only given, as follows. Broadband (30–1000 MHz) frequency-modulated spectroscopic measurements of brain tissue using near IR wavelengths are used for accurate extraction of absorption and scattering coefficients of cortex, CSF, and skull. Design of a helmet mounted untethered fNIR system is presented which provides wireless communication between the monitoring and helmet mounted fNIR imaging sensors using a high speed wireless ISM band transmitter and UWB communication standards.
