Abstract
Previous work established that optical properties (absorption (μa) and reduced scattering (μs’) coefficients) can affect speckle contrast, and hence blood-flow measurements. Here, we introduce a cerebral metabolic imaging system that combines laser speckle imaging and spatial frequency domain imaging for rodents. Using measured optical properties and speckle contrast values, we developed a method of achieving absolute measurements of cerebral blood flow (CBF) using the correlation diffusion. We tested our approach with a mouse hindpaw stimulation model and observed a more substantial increase in peak CBF than conventional speckle contrast analysis.
