Quantification of blood-brain barrier permeability by dynamic contrast-enhanced NIRS
Abstract The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is integral to maintaining a suitable microenvironment for neurons to function properly. Despite its importance, there are no bedside methods of assessing BBB disruption to help guide management of critical-care patients. The aim of this study was to demonstrat...

Abstract The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is integral to maintaining a suitable microenvironment for neurons to function properly.
