title: Application of near-IR time-resolved spectroscopy and frequency response analysis for deep vein thrombosis detection.
abstract: Frequency response analysis is applied to analyze NIR-TRS spectra in a tissue model with a simulated thrombus. The value changes in parameters obtained from frequency response analysis are correlated with heterogeneity position in three dimensions. The goal of this research is to noninvasively localize deep vein thrombosis in the human leg through the use of this novel combination.
