Embodiment Construction

[0032] Blood flow or tissue perfusion monitoring is useful in patients with a wide range of medical conditions and disorders (including traumatic brain injury, intracerebral and subarachnoid hemorrhage, hydrocephalus, benign intracranial hypertension, meningitis, stroke, acute liver failure, etc.) It is important for patients to be diagnosed and treated. In some cases, it is highly desirable to quantify blood flow absolutely in order to provide accurate comparisons between subjects, eg, so that standard blood flow levels can be defined and thresholds established for clinical intervention.

[0033] Thus, according to aspects of the present disclosure, a system and method for accurate, non-invasive monitoring of blood flow, including cerebral blood flow, is described herein. In particular, provided systems and methods utilize optical measurements, including diffusion correlated spectroscopy (DCS) measurements, to estimate absolute blood flow. In some aspects, the optical data m...

Abstract

A system and method for non-invasively estimating an absolute blood flow of a vascular region in a subject using optical data are provided. In some aspects, the method includes acquiring optical datafrom the vascular region using one or more optical sensors placed about the subject, and determining, using the optical data, an index of blood flow and. a blood volume associated with the vascular region. The method also includes computing a blood inflow and a blood outflow using the index of blood flow and the blood volume, and estimating an absolute blood flow using the blood inflow and blood outflow. The method further includes generating a report indicative of the absolute blood flow of the vascular region.
