A Chinese optical engineer captured the first super-resolution video of abnormal cilia movement in a child's airways, winning Nikon's prestigious microscopy competition. His breakthrough imaging technique helps doctors understand a rare genetic respiratory disorder without harming living tissue.
A new imaging technology developed in Australia can detect both cancer and industrial contaminants, earning a massive $72 million investment. The breakthrough could transform early cancer detection while boosting mining safety.
A Cincinnati hospital just became the first in America to use breakthrough cancer imaging technology that could make radiation treatment faster and more accurate. The new scanner helps doctors see tumors more clearly while patients breathe naturally.
Researchers turned ordinary sunlight into a quantum imaging tool, creating correlated photon pairs without lasers for the first time. The breakthrough could enable powerful quantum cameras to work anywhere on Earth or even in space.
A new generation of scientists is tackling cancer from fresh angles, from mapping DNA patterns to creating glowing probes that light up tumors. Their work promises earlier detection and better survival rates for millions.
Scientists in China just cracked a tricky physics problem that could transform everything from cameras to medical imaging. Their breakthrough lets a surface thinner than paper control two types of light completely independently across a rainbow of colors.
