2. 1. Brain functional near infrared spectroscopy in human infants : cerebral cortical haemodynamics coupled to neuronal activation in response to sensory stimulation

   Author : Marco Bartocci; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Near infrared spectroscopy; newborn; infant; brain; sensory stimulation; cortical activation;

   Abstract : The assessment of cortical activation in the neonatal brain is crucial in the study of brain development, as it provides precious information for how the newborn infant processes external or internal stimuli. Thus far functional studies of neonates aimed to assess cortical responses to certain external stimuli are very few, due to the lack of suitable techniques to monitor brain activity of the newborn.
