From 18th to 19th  June ICM was oganized the Seminar: „Quantitative diffuse optical methods for neuromonitoring”. This meeting was  held  by Prof. Keith St.Lawrence (Canada) and Prof. Adam Liebert (Poland).

Among invited speakers was invited: Arjun Yodh (University of Pennsylvania), Emanuela Keller (University Hospital Zurich), Sergio Fantini (Tufts University), Davide Contini (POLIMI), Hamid Dehghani (The University of Birmingham), Ilias Tachtsidis (UCL), Turgut Durduran (ICFO).

The Seminar was related to challenges, applications and limitations of methods based on contrast agent passage, development of quantified parameters useful in cerebral hemodynamics assessment and metrological problems related to application of diffuse optics methods in neuromonitoring. The ICG enhanced NIRS techniques for cerebral perfusion estimation and monitoring, time-resolved NIRS, coherent hemodynamics spectroscopy and broadband NIRS techniques for quantifying cerebral hemodynamics as well as computational methods in NIRS imaging and tomography will be discussed. The Seminar was also address problems of application of these methods from clinicians point of view.
