Back in 2010 we published a paper titled “Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) signal improvement based on negative correlation between oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin dynamics“. It is about a really simple method which sur
Where are the major NIRS device manufactures? You can see from the map below. There are NIRS manufactures in US, Japan, Europe and Korea. If you are a NIRS manufacture and would like to add to this list, please let me know (leave a comment in this po
Does my boss have money? I am looking for a postdoc position; does my future boss have enough funding to support me? How much money was awarded to my field (e.g. NIRS)? And who got the money? What are they going to do with the money? Have you ever wo
When analyzing the data in our concurrent NIRS-fMRI study, we are particularly interested in how the NIRS signals were correlated to the fMRI signal. To answer the question we need to create an ROI (region of interest) in brain which is directly unde
One of the advantages of NIRS is that it measure two values at a time – both oxy- and deoxy-Hb concentration, while fMRI measure only one value, called BOLD. (See a comparison between NIRS and fMRI.) However, what is the use of measuring two va
I usually report a group-level T-test image in the final publications or presentations. But in the early stage of a project when only one or a few subjects have been scanned, I often need to report an activation map for an individual subject after ge
The following script is to determine is a channel (or voxel) survives the FDR corrected threshold. Assume you have 48 channels and you already calculated the (uncorrected) p-value of each channel. You put it into an array called p. Now you want to kn
