The images created by the Lumitron Hyperview machines have 1000 times the resolution of a traditional X-ray. Limitron Technologies plans that its machines will be able to replace traditional X-ray and CT scanners in hospitals and identify problems such as tumours in far more detail. They would also have ultra-low radiation compared with today's machines and theoretically be able to treat a tumour with precision radiotherapy at the same time as imaging it. https://www.afr.com/technology/aussies-lumitron-hunts-biggest-xray-breakthrough-since-1800s-with-336m-raise-20180626-h11vii
