Near-infrared spectroscopy is widely used for the non-invasive measurement of hemoglobin oxygenation in biological tissues. Here we report experimental studies on the measurement of oxygenation parameters during arterial occlusion and physical exertion using the NIRS4 hardware/software system and a previously developed algorithm based on a modified Bouguer–Lambert–Beer law. The dynamics of changes in hemoglobin oxygenation parameters during arterial occlusion and physical exertion of the quadriceps femoris and biceps brachii muscles are demonstrated. The measurement results demonstrate that the NIRS4 system, together with the present algorithm, can be used to analyze the dynamics of hemoglobin oxygenation.
