Visuospatial deficits are among the first symptoms of Alzheimer disease (AD) and linked to lower activation in the superior parietal cortex as assessed with functional imaging. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is an optical method to measure changes in the concentration of oxygenated hemoglobin and deoxygenated hemoglobin in the microvascular system of the cortex. Because of its advantages in measurement situation, NIRS has proven to be especially suited for investigating psychiatric patients. The aim of this study was to probe the activation of parietal regions in patients with AD, performing a visuospatial task by means of functional NIRS (fNIRS).
