The whole brain imaging of animal models is a major challenge in the current optical field, especially in freely moving animals. In this paper, in vivo high-resolution and long-term characterization of zebrafish brain were achieved with optical coherence tomography (OCT) and photoacoustic microscopy (PAM). The combination of OCT and PAM demonstrated gratifying results in vivo characterization of adult zebrafish brain’s complex structure.
Zebrafish is a well-established in vivo model that exhibit high homology with the development of human innate immunity while well-established human disease model in vivo for various human diseases as well as the drug safetyevaluation process. However, few optical imaging methods could effectively visualize the structure of adult zebrafish due to their limited penetration depth. In this paper, in vivo high-resolution and long-term characterization of human bone disease models based on zebrafish were achieved with optical coherence tomography (OCT). The capability of three-dimensional OCT imaging was also played important role in visualization of zebrafish bone disease model. This paper presents the construction of bone degradation and regeneration model and OCT imaging in vivo based on zebrafish.

Because of its similar genetic makeup with humans, zebrafish are an available and well-established human disease model in vivo for various human diseases as well as the drug safety-evaluation process. However, few optical imaging methods could effectively visualize the structure of adult zebrafish due to their limited penetration depth. In this paper, in vivo high-resolution and long-term characterization of various kinds of human disease models based on zebrafish were achieved with optical coherence tomography (OCT). The capability of three-dimensional OCT imaging was also played important role in visualization of zebrafish disease model. The combination of zebrafish and OCT demonstrated gratifying results in vivo characterization of human disease models based on adult zebrafish with optical coherence tomography.
