Although it may be years yet in development, Friedmann envisions
a noninvasive imaging device akin to an X-ray that detects bits and pieces of leftover viruses used to introduce performance - enhancing genes.

Now, the «smart» bandage developed by the team provides direct,
noninvasive measurement of tissue oxygenation by combining three simple, compact and inexpensive components: a bright sensor molecule with a long phosphorescence lifetime and appropriate dynamic range; a bandage material compatible with the sensor molecule that conforms to the skin's surface to form an airtight seal; and an
imaging device capable of capturing the oxygen - dependent signals from the bandage with high signal - to - noise ratio.
