The state-of-the art of near infrared spectroscopy for noninvasive transcranial monitoring of cerebral oxigenation is fully described in this book. International experts demonstrate the methology and the clinical and research results that have beeen achieved in highly specialized technical and medical centers. The advantages and limits of the technique are critically discussed.
The book is a valuable clinical resource for a widespread readership in the fields of critical care medicine, anesthesiology, neonatology, vascular surgery, cardiac surgery, neurology, neurosurgery, hyperbaric medicine, biomedical engineering, traditional Chinese medicine, and other fields.
