• Abstract: This study introduces a groundbreaking optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging system dedicated for high-throughput screening applications using ex vivo tissue culture. Leveraging OCT's non-invasive, high-resolution capabilities, the system is equipped with a custom-designed motorized platform and tissue detection ability for automated, successive imaging across samples. Transformer-based deep learning segmentation algorithms further ensure robust, consistent, and efficient readouts meeting the standards for screening assays. Validated using retinal explant cultures from a mouse model of retinal degeneration, the system provides robust, rapid, reliable, unbiased, and comprehensive readouts of tissue response to treatments. This fully automated OCT-based system marks a significant advancement in tissue screening, promising to transform drug discovery, as well as other relevant research fields.

  Optoacoustic (OA) imaging is based on excitation of biological tissues with nanosecond-duration laser pulses followed by detection of ultrasound waves generated via light-absorption-mediated thermoelastic expansion. OA imaging features a powerful combination between rich optical contrast and high resolution in deep tissues. No standardized datasets generated with different types of experimental set-up and associated processing methods are available to facilitate advances in broader applications of OA in clinical settings.

• Segmentation of Retinal Low-Cost Optical Coherence Tomography Images using Deep Learning [2.571523045125397]
  The need for treatment is determined by the presence or change of disease-specific OCT-based biomarkers. The monitoring frequency of current treatment schemes is not individually adapted to the patient and therefore often insufficient. One of the key requirements of a home monitoring OCT system is a computer-aided diagnosis to automatically detect and quantify pathological changes.
