PIONIRS at CARNet 2025 – Fort Worth, Texas USA | November 12–14th 

Events

Our team will participate as both sponsor and exhibitor at CARNet annual meeting 2025, which brings together international experts to discuss advances in cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) assessment and neurovascular monitoring. Discover Our Latest Research: At PIONIRS, we have focused on using Time-Domain Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (TD-NIRS) to noninvasively measure cerebral oxygenation and microvascular reactivity. TD-NIRS provides

Prefrontal brain oximetry in pediatric LRTIs: new Scientific Reports study using our NIRSBOX tissue oximeter.

Publicationspaper

A new peer-reviewed paper in Nature Portfolio’s Scientific Reports shows that time-domain NIRS (TD-NIRS) with NIRSBOX can detect prefrontal cortex tissue oxygenation differences in children hospitalized with lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) compared with age- and sex-matched controls. In multivariate analysis, cerebral StO₂ emerged as an independent predictor of LRTI status, underscoring the added value

PIONIRS featured in IEEE JSTQE: shaping the neurophotonics frontier

InterviewsPublications

We’ve been busy building, validating, and iterating—and IEEE JSTQE thought it was worth a chat. In their latest issue, Michele Lacerenza and Mauro Buttafava discuss how PIONIRS brings rigorous TD-NIRS measurements out of the lab and into real-life research and care. The conversation reflects what drives us every day: quantitative accuracy, robust engineering, and tools
