ENGINEERING This Sticker Looks Inside the Body A new stick-on ultrasound patch can record the activity of hearts, lungs and other organs for 48 hours at a time
“The beauty of this is, suddenly, you can adhere this ultrasound probe, this thin ultrasound speaker, to the body over 48 hours,” says Xuanhe Zhao, a mechanical engineer at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and co-author of a paper describing the new device, which was published in Science on Thursday. By recording still pictures and videos of internal organs during this time, a wearable imaging device could be used to diagnose heart attacks and malignant tumors, test the effectiveness of medications and assess general heart, lung or muscle health. “This can potentially change the paradigm of medical imaging by empowering long-term continuous imaging,” Zhao adds, “and it can change the paradigm of the field of wearable devices.”

非常棒，而且距离商业化超近的一小步。要是VC，现在或者也许已经就下手了。
我也觉得这个很牛！
