Progress of near-infrared spectroscopy and topography for brain and muscle clinical applications
This review celebrates the 30th anniversary of the first in vivo near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy (NIRS) publication, which was authored by Professor Frans Jöbsis. At first, NIRS was utilized to ...
Functional near-infrared spectroscopy: current status and future prospects
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), which was originally designed for clinical monitoring of tissue oxygenation, has been developing into a useful tool for neuroimaging studies (functional near-infrare...

Near-infraredspectroscopy (NIRS) was initiated in 1977 by Jobsis as asimple, noninvasive method for measuring the presence of oxygen inmuscle and other tissues in vivo. This review honoring Jobsishighlights the progress that has been made in developing andadapting NIRS and NIR imaging (NIRI) technologies for evaluating skeletalmuscle O2 dynamics and oxidative energy metabolism. Development of NIRS/NIRItechnologies has included novel approaches to quantification of the signal,as well as the addition of multiple source detector pairsfor imaging. Adaptation of NIRS technology has focused on thevalidity and reliability of NIRS measurements. NIRS measurements have beenextended to resting, ischemic, localized exercise, and whole body exerciseconditions. In addition, NIRS technology has been applied to thestudy of a number of chronic health conditions, including patientswith chronic heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, chronic obstructive pulmonarydisease, varying muscle diseases, spinal cord injury, and renal failure.As NIRS technology continues to evolve, the study of skeletalmuscle function with NIRS first illuminated by Jobsis continues tobe bright.
