fNIRS

While functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) had previously been suggested for major depressive disorder (MDD) diagnosis, the clinical application to predict antidepressant treatment response (ATR) is still unclear. To address this, the aim of the current study is to investigate MDD ATR using fNIRS and micro-ribonucleic acids (miRNAs). Our proposed algorithm includes a custom inter-subject variability reduction based on the Principal Component Analysis (PCA).
