A new medical technology called histotripsy is changing how some tumors can be treated.

Recently cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the technology uses highly focused ultrasound waves to destroy targeted tumor tissue without making any surgical incisions. Instead of cutting into the body, histotripsy creates microscopic bubbles inside the tumor. These bubbles rapidly expand and collapse, mechanically breaking the tissue into tiny fragments.

The FDA's initial clearance covers the treatment of certain liver tumors. Because the procedure is non invasive, patients may experience shorter recovery times and avoid some of the risks associated with traditional surgery. It may also provide an option for patients who are not ideal candidates for invasive procedures.

Researchers are continuing to investigate whether histotripsy can be used to treat tumors in other organs, including the kidney, pancreas, and prostate. While it is not expected to replace every cancer treatment, experts view it as an important advancement in image-guided, non-invasive tumor therapy.

Histotripsy represents a new approach to cancer care: using precisely targeted sound waves to destroy diseased tissue without a scalpel.

Germany has developed a medical gel designed to help repair and regrow damaged joint cartilage without relying on implants or major surgery. The treatment is presented as a promising option for people dealing with cartilage loss, joint pain, or mobility issues.

The injectable gel works by filling damaged areas where cartilage has worn away. Once placed inside the joint, the body’s own cells can gradually grow into the gel and support the formation of new cartilage tissue.

This approach is described as minimally invasive compared with traditional joint replacement or surgical repair. Instead of removing or replacing the joint, the goal is to help the body restore damaged tissue more naturally.

For people with arthritis, sports injuries, or age-related cartilage damage, this kind of treatment could offer new hope. Improved cartilage repair may help reduce pain and support better movement over time.

The innovation reflects how orthopedic medicine is moving toward regenerative treatments that work with the body’s healing process. If successful, it could change how doctors approach joint damage in the future.

“Chaos.”

That’s the word one Meta employee reportedly used to describe the mood inside the company ahead of expected mass layoffs.

According to an internal document obtained by Reuters, the layoffs are expected to take place in three phases, with affected employees receiving notification emails starting at 4 a.m. local time in their respective regions.

The cuts come after Reuters reported in April that Meta had installed tracking software on the computers of U.S.-based employees to monitor mouse movements, clicks, and keystrokes. Internal memos reportedly showed the data collection was linked to a broader effort to train Meta’s AI models and develop AI agents capable of autonomously handling workplace tasks.
