We present a system for automatic determination of the intradermal volume of hydrogels based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) and deep learning. Volumetric image data was acquired using a custom-built OCT prototype that employs an akinetic swept laser at ~1310 nm with a bandwidth of 87 nm, prov...
