Harnessing the Power of Hybrid NIRS: A Dive into Eskandari et al.’s cbNIRS Study

adminPublications

At PIONIRS, we’re always excited to see how our NIRSBOX-Q platform fuels innovation across biophotonics. In their recent Optica Open preprint, Eskandari and colleagues introduce a clever fusion of continuous-wave hyperspectral measurements with PIONIRS’s four-wavelength time-domain NIRS system—what they call “calibrated broadband NIRS,” or cbNIRS.   From Concept to Quantitative Insight Traditional near-infrared spectroscopy can
