The NIRSC works to standardize protocol that flows into NIRS testing.  Here we have information on how to optimize NIRS performance in your lab.  We have compiled and developed recommendations for methods on sample handling, listed uniform terminology, provide examples for a model report form, and provide a spectra check-up system for in-house monitoring.
