From Lab to Life: Portability Is Key
Continuous technical advances have made fNIRS systems fully portable, reliable, and comfortable, unlocking neuroimaging beyond the lab. Measuring brain activity during everyday tasks and real-world environments delivers more realistic insights into brain function. In #sportsscience, portable #fNIRS enables brain monitoring on the football field, even during penalty kicks 🏃♂️➡️⚽️

This week’s top pick comes from Perlet et al., who used the PortaMon to investigate how training history and sex-related differences shape NIRS-derived muscle values.
🟡 PortaMon allowed precise, non-invasive monitoring across varied training backgrounds
🔵 NIRS revealed clear sex-related differences in muscle oxygenation metrics
🟡 Insights like these contribute to more targeted and individualized approaches in sports science
