Journal ArticleDOI
Time domain functional NIRS imaging for human brain mapping
Alessandro Torricelli,Davide Contini,Antonio Pifferi,Matteo Caffini,Rebecca Re,Lucia Zucchelli,Lorenzo Spinelli +6 more
TL;DR: This review is aimed at presenting the state-of-the-art of time domain (TD) functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) by introducing the physical principles, the basics of modeling and data analysis, and the technological developments that would pave the way for a broader use of TD fNirS in the neuroimaging community.
Journal ArticleDOI
CMOS Imager With 1024 SPADs and TDCs for Single-Photon Timing and 3-D Time-of-Flight
Federica Villa,Rudi Lussana,Danilo Bronzi,Simone Tisa,Alberto Tosi,Franco Zappa,Alberto Dalla Mora,Davide Contini,Daniel Durini,Sascha Weyers,Werner Brockherde +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a CMOS imager consisting of 32×32 smart pixels, each one able to detect single photons in the 300-900 nm wavelength range and to perform both photon-counting and photon-timing operations on very fast optical events with faint intensities.
Journal ArticleDOI
New frontiers in time-domain diffuse optics, a review
Antonio Pifferi,Antonio Pifferi,Davide Contini,Alberto Dalla Mora,Andrea Farina,Lorenzo Spinelli,Alessandro Torricelli,Alessandro Torricelli +7 more
TL;DR: This study shows how these tools could lead on one hand to compact and wearable time-domain devices for point-of-care diagnostics down to the consumer level and on the other hand to powerful systems with exceptional depth penetration and sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Time-Resolved Diffuse Reflectance Using Small Source-Detector Separation and Fast Single-Photon Gating
Antonio Pifferi,Alessandro Torricelli,Lorenzo Spinelli,Davide Contini,Rinaldo Cubeddu,Fabrizio Martelli,Giovanni Zaccanti,Alberto Tosi,Alberto Dalla Mora,Franco Zappa,Sergio Cova +10 more
TL;DR: The proposed approach proved valuable to detect in vivo a task-related brain activation by detecting a local inhomogeneity deeply buried within a diffusive medium with better spatial resolution, higher signal intensity, and same contrast of a larger interfiber distance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-channel time-resolved system for functional near infrared spectroscopy
Davide Contini,Alessandro Torricelli,Antonio Pifferi,Lorenzo Spinelli,Floriano Paglia,Rinaldo Cubeddu +5 more
TL;DR: A compact dual wavelength multi-channel time-resolved system for functional near infrared spectroscopy that enables 16 sources and up to 64 collection points, with a minimum acquisition time of 5 ms per channel is designed.
