Research Abstract |
We developed a neurofeedback system using real-time Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS). Using this system, we evaluated whether NIRS-mediated neurofeedback combined with intensive rehabilitation therapy could augment the functional recovery after stroke. Our findings revealed that the NIRS-mediated neurofeedback can enhance the target cortical activity and augment the recovery of hand motor function. These findings proved the safety of the NIRS-mediated neurofeedback and also suggested its usefulness as the novel rehabilitative intervention.
