Abstract
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a promising research tool for non-invasive imaging of biological tissues. OCT can be used to capture images of the beating Drosophila heart in vivo with micrometer resolution and video-rate imaging speed. Due to its non-invasiveness nature, OCT enables longitudinal imaging of developing flies through the entire life cycle of the insect. Combined with non-invasive optogenetic pacing, this forms a powerful research platform to study developmental biology.
