Abstract

Simulations of near-infrared light propagation based upon MRI images of a rat cranium are used to determine the optimum arrangement for maximum sensitivity in the brain. Singular value decomposition analysis is used to provide a quantitative measure for amount of information obtained in different fiber arrangements.
