A new scan lets scientists see inside the human body in 3D color

Researchers at Caltech and USC have created a new medical imaging approach that quickly produces 3D color images showing both the physical structure of soft tissue and how blood vessels are working. The technique has already been used to image several parts of the human body. Scientists say it could lead to better breast cancer imaging, improved tracking of nerve damage linked to diabetes, and new ways to study the brain.
