Popis: Organoids have emerged as a powerful technology to investigate human development, model diseases and for drug discovery. However, analysis tools to rapidly and reproducibly quantify organoid parameters from microscopy images are lacking. We developed a deep-learning based generalized organoid annotation tool (GOAT) using instance segmentation with pixel-level identification of organoids to quantify advanced organoid features. Using a multicentric dataset, including multiple organoid systems (e.g. liver, intestine, tumor, lung), we demonstrate generalization of the tool to annotate a diverse range of organoids generated in different laboratories and high performance in comparison to previously published methods. In sum, GOAT provides fast and unbiased quantification of organoid experiments to accelerate organoid research and facilitates novel high-throughput applications.
