Discussion number 2:
"NIRS detects light absorbance of haemoglobin chromophores to determine tissue oxygen saturation (StO2). As skin colour is also determined by the presence of chromophores, it is plausible that NIRS signal quality may be affected by dark skin pigmentation."
NIR is different from IR. Different wavelengths.
Even if it was using NIR, the term plausible is used in that sentence.
