Scientists Have Devised a Technique for Visualizing Tissues

Researchers at the University of Edinburgh’s MRC Centre for Inflammation have developed new imaging probes that light up specific parts of a cell in a matter of seconds. The probes attach a fluorescent tag to the target being detected so that researchers can track where it’s being produced.

The new approach is more sensitive than existing tools and could help researchers detect illnesses such as cancer at a much earlier stage. The study was published in the journal Nature Communications.
