Abstract

We used near-infrared spectroscopy to separate tissue scattering changes from changes in cerebral oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin and the redox state of cytochrome-c-oxidase. A separate term of the transport scattering coefficient μs was included in a modified Lambert–Beer equation. It is shown by diffusion equation analysis that there is a simple relationship between the differential path-length factor Da and its scattering equivalent Ds. The method was applied to cortical spreading depression (CSD) data recorded through the skulls of rats. Biphasic changes in μs of ±0.1 mm-1 were observed during CSD's that spread with a velocity of 5 mm/min. The method proposed has the promise to permit monitoring of scattering changes noninvasively in humans during cortical activation or pathophysiological conditions.
