Engineers from University of Michigan have created a new ultrasound technology that promises to be a boon for micro-surgery. Using a carbon nanotube coated lens, researchers found that light energy can be converted to high pressure sound waves, to help focus on precise points. Researchers have called it the 'Invisible Knife' and feel that it can be used in medical research fields like noninvasive surgery. Engineers used tightly-focused sound waves for ...Sunday, 23 December 2012
