A comparison of continuous-wave fNIRS with quantitative fMRI-derived indices of brain function in the visual cortex

Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) both rely on the phenomenon of neurovascular coupling (NVC) to probe brain activity through their sensitivity to cerebral blood oxygenation. However, the relationship between fNIRS chromophores (oxy- and deoxyhaemoglobin, HbO and HbR), and fMRI (Blood Oxygen Level Dependent and Arterial Spin Labeling,…
