Simulation of near-infrared light absorption considering individual head and prefrontal cortex anatomy: implications for optical neuroimaging.

Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is an established optical neuroimaging method for measuring functional hemodynamic responses to infer neural activation. However, the impact of individual anatomy on the sensitivity of fNIRS measuring hemodynamics within cortical gray matter is still unk...
