- Researchers used functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to detect brain activity in a comatose patient, showing signs of awareness previously undetected by standard clinical assessments.
- The technology measures brain responses to commands, providing insights that could impact decisions about continuing life support.
- This breakthrough could improve prognosis predictions and care strategies for critically injured patients.
