Application and development of diffuse optical methods for the non-invasive bedside assessment of cerebral hemodynamics in the stroke unit

Kobayashi Frisk, Lisa (Date of defense: 2023-07-14)

(English) The brain is an organ with a large energy budget compared to its volume and weight and constantly requires oxygen-rich blood to meet its metabolic needs. Given this fact, a tool that enables the continuous ...

Comprehensive monitoring of the injured brain by hybrid diffuse optics: towards brain-oriented theranostics

Tagliabue, Susanna (Date of defense: 2022-04-29)

(English) In the intensive care, the multimodal monitoring of the patient is crucial. The systemic physiology is routinely and comprehensively monitored but the practical monitoring of the brain is lacking. Hybrid diffuse ...

Correlates of cerebral vasoreactivity measured by non-invasive diffuse optical measurements as biomarkers of brain injury risk

Gregori Pla, Clara (Date of defense: 2019-03-06)

I have used and developed a practical new platform in the clinics for the noninvasive estimation of cerebral hemodynamics. The latform combines two diffuse optical techniques: near-infrared spectroscopy and diffuse ...

Diffuse optical monitoring of cerebral hemodynamics in experimental and clinical neurology

Blanco Núñez, Igor D. (Date of defense: 2015-01-31)

The study of the brain using diffuse optical methods has progressed rapidly in the recent years. The possibility of studying the cerebral microvasculature in addition to the portability and low cost of these devices, opens ...

Hybrid diffuse optics methods to assess the emergence of dementia in older adults

Avtzi, Stella (Date of defense: 2024-05-03)

(English) Hybrid diffuse optical devices offer a non-invasive and continuous and cost-effective method for monitoring cerebral blood flow and metabolism on the bedside use and realistic simulation applications. The ...

Time domain, near-infrared diffuse optical methods for path length resolved, non-invasive measurement of deep-tissue blood flow

Pagliazzi, Marco (Date of defense: 2019-10-04)

The non-invasive and, often, continuous measurement of the hemodynamics of the body, and for the main purposes of this thesis, the brain, is desired because both the instantaneous values and their changes over time constantly ...
