Scientists in California have created a new way to see inside the body by combining ultrasound with a light-based technique called photoacoustic imaging.

It has already been tested on human heads, breasts and limbs, and could help doctors spot tumours, track nerve damage from diabetes and study the brain — without radiation or injected dyes. Caltech
