Optical Properties Of Tissue

We present a broad-band, continuous wave spectral approach to quantify the baseline optical properties of tissue, in particular the absolute absorption and scattering properties and changes in the concentrations of chromophores, which can assist to quantify the regional blood flow from dynamic contrast-enhanced near-infrared spectroscopy data. Experiments were conducted on phantoms and piglets. The baseline optical properties of tissue were determined by performing a multi-parameter wavelength-dependent differential data fit of the near infrared reflectance spectrum between 680 nm and 970 nm of a photon diffusion equation solution for a semi-infinite homogeneous medium. These baseline optical properties of the piglet head tissue were used to quantify the temporal dynamics of the concentration of the intravenously administered contrast agent Indocyanine Green in the piglet brain. The temporal traces of the Indocyanine Green concentration measured by our method were used to estimate the cerebral blood flow using a bolus tracking technique.

Hypoxia Ischemia

Impaired oxidative metabolism following hypoxia-ischemia (HI) is believed to be an early indicator of delayed brain injury. The cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO2) can be measured by combining near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) measurements of cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral deoxy-hemoglobin concentration. The ability of NIRS to measure changes in CMRO2 following HI was investigated in newborn piglets. Nine piglets were subjected to 30 min of HI by occluding both carotid arteries and reducing the fraction of inspired oxygen to 8%. An additional nine piglets served as sham-operated controls. Measurements of CBF, oxygen extraction fraction (OEF), and CMRO2 were obtained at baseline and at 6 h after the HI insult. Of the three parameters, only CMRO2 showed a persistent and significant change after HI. Five minutes after reoxygenation, there was a 28 ± 12% (mean ± SE) decrease in CMRO2, a 72 ± 50% increase in CBF, and a 56 ± 19% decrease in OEF compared with baseline ( P < 0.05). By 30 min postinsult and for the remainder of the study, there were no significant differences in CBF and OEF between control and insult groups, whereas CMRO2 remained depressed throughout the 6-h postinsult period. This study demonstrates that NIRS can measure decreases in CMRO2 caused by HI. The results highlight the potential for NIRS to be used in the neonatal intensive care unit to detect delayed brain damage.
