Abstract
In recent years, with the aggravation of aging, the incidence of neurodegenerative diseases is increasing year by year, and the prognosis of patients is poor. Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a new and non-invasive neuroimaging technology, which has been gradually deepened in the application research of neurodegenerative diseases by virtue of its unique neurooxygen signal brain functional imaging characteristics in monitoring the disease condition, making treatment plans and evaluating the treatment effect. In this paper, the mechanism of action and technical characteristics of fNIRS are briefly introduced, and the application research of fNIRS in different neurodegenerative diseases is summarized in order to provide new ideas for future related research and clinical application.
