Abstract
Lipid droplets (LDs), once considered mere storage depots for lipids, have gained recognition for their intricate roles in cellular processes, including metabolism, membrane trafficking, and disease states like obesity and cancer. This review explores label-free imaging techniques' applications in LD research. We discuss holotomography and vibrational spectroscopic microscopy, emphasizing their potential for studying LDs without molecular labels, and we highlight the growing integration of artificial intelligence. Clinical applications in disease diagnosis and therapy are also considered.
