New Neurophotonics paper looking at agreement between methods for assessing cerebrovascular reactivity with diffuse optics

Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR), i.e., the ability of cerebral blood vessels to dilate or constrict in response to changes in blood oxygen content or neuronal demand, is a biomarker of vascular health. CVR assessment usually involves administration of a controlled vasoactive … Continue reading
