Non-Invasive Mapping of Cerebral Autoregulation Using Near Infrared Spectroscopy
Cerebral Autoregulation MappingThe investigators propose to employ advanced multi-channel near non-invasive near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) system married with entirely non-invasive continuous arterial blood pressure (niABP) monitor to create a new wearable and portable imaging system that derives CA maps of the entire brain with high sampling rates at each point.
The objectives of this project are as follows:
1. To perform in vivo testing and optimization of the device using a block-trial design to evaluate the CA mapping system's performance during various perturbations.
2. To explore the impact of aging and sex on regional disparities in CA in a healthy volunteer population using static recording along with perturbation testing.
