Dual modality OCT system monitors human heart organoids in vitro

Senyue Hao, Chao Ren, Fei Wang, and Dr. Kibeom Park recently published “Dual-modality imaging system for monitoring human heart organoids beating in vitro” in Optics Letters. The work was done in collaboration with Dr. Aitor Aguirre at Michigan State University, and uses both fluorescence and OCT imaging to capture organoid beating dynamics. More information can […]

OCT provides 3D quantifications of mouse ovarian follicles

Our paper, “Three-dimensional imaging and quantification of mouse ovarian follicles via optical coherence tomography”, was recently published in Biomedical Optics Express. This work was lead by Dr. Marcello Magri Amaral, and showed the promise of SD-OCT as a tool for facilitating the selection of ovarian tissue for cryopreservation. Read more here. Congratulations to all the […]
