To put it simply, an organoid is a miniaturized in vitro model that phenocopies/mimics the structure and function of an organ in vivo. This simple definition belies the exquisite power that such in vitro model systems contribute to studying many aspects of the development and diseases of different organs in the body. Their utility and power have driven what can fairly be characterized as an explosive use of organoids for analyses of growth and development, disease simulation, drug screening, and other potential therapeutic approaches. To obtain necessary information, such as details of morphological structures and the dynamics of cell function and signals, it is essential to monitor organoid dynamics and cellular-subcellular responses directly and in real-time. Among different detection approaches, innovative imaging technologies support organoids' direct and quantitative observation. This Methods Collection aims to gather protocols by experts in such imaging approaches, specifically applied to stem cell biology, stem cell commitment, and lineage progression in tissue and organ regeneration.
