The employment of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) as a method of brain imaging has increased over the last few years due to its portability, low-cost and robustness to subject movement. Experiments with fNIRS are designed in the face of a limited number of sources and detectors (optodes) to be positioned on selected portion(s) of the scalp. The optodes locations represent an expectation of assessing cortical regions relevant to the experiment's hypothesis. However, this translation process remains a challenge for fNIRS experimental design. In the present study, we propose an approach that automatically decides the location of fNIRS optodes from a set of predefined positions with the aim of maximizing the anatomical specificity to brain regions-of-interest. The implemented method is based on photon transport simulations on two head atlases. The results are compiled into the publicly available fNIRS Optodes' Location Decider (fOLD). This toolbox is a first-order approach to bring the achieved advancements of parcellation methods and meta-analyses from functional magnetic resonance imaging to more precisely guide the selection of optode positions for fNIRS experiments.
