Quantitative regional cerebral blood flow measurement using near-infrared spectroscopy and indocyanine green in patients undergoing superficial temporal to middle cerebral artery bypass for moyamoya disease: a novel method using a frequency filter
Authors' conclusion
rCBF measurements based on this novel method were weakly correlated with rCBF measurements with SPECT.
Study context
- Population
- Patients undergoing superficial temporal to middle cerebral artery bypass for moyamoya diseaseprocedures analysed
- Participants
- 34 patients
- Comparison
- Regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) with indocyanine green (ICG) and frequency filter vs SPECT
- Outcome
- Agreement between rCBF_N and rCBF_S (ICC3)
Performance

rCBF_N (NIRS) change from baseline to end of surgery
- rCBF_N increased from baseline to end of the surgery
rCBF_S (SPECT) change
- Similar trends observed for rCBF_S
