8 Physiological Principles of fnir: Neural Activity & Hemodynamic Response Neurons consume energy (glucose) when activated Oxygen is required to metabolize the glucose As clusters of neurons are activated, there is an increased need for oxygen in that area Oxygen is transported to neural tissue via oxyhemoglobin in the blood The oxygen exchange occurs in the capillary beds As oxy-hemoglobin gives up oxygen to the neural tissue, it is transformed into deoxygenated hemoglobin David J. Heeger & David Ress. (2002) What does fmri tell us about neuronal activity? Nature Reviews Neuroscience 3, Oxy-Hb and deoxy-hb are correlates of brain activity through oxygen consumption by neurons BIOPAC Systems, Inc

14 fnir Signal Processing Raw fnir signals are light intensity values at detectors The physiologically irrelevant data (such as respiration and heart pulsation effects) and equipment noise, etc. are first eliminated from the raw fnir measurements Saturation, motion artifact and other noise needs to be eliminated (or excluded from analysis Ayaz, H., Shewokis, P.
