Chinese doctors successfully removed a lung tumour from an unborn baby still in the mother’s womb using a needle-based technique. The procedure, described as a new milestone, uses magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound to vibrate water molecules and create intense heat that destroys tumor tissue. This joint effort by Shenzhen Baoan Women's and Children's Hospital and the Chinese University of Hong Kong was detailed in the journal Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology on August 20.
