...expects any of these concerns to hold the field back for long. Noninvasive imaging has the potential to radically alter the way physicians diagnose and monitor heart disease. "The whole paradigm for us has been that you don't get that kind of information unless you stick things into people," says Duke University's Douglas.

...teens or 20s to serve at least two years in the military, and it's not a lot of fun. The discipline can be intense: earlier this year, a whistle-blower accused a captain of ordering his troops to dip their fingers into a dirty toilet bowl and then stick them in their mouths. In June, a young conscript stationed near the DMZ allegedly threw a live grenade into a tent full of sleeping comrades and sprayed it with his K-1 semiautomatic, killing eight. It's still unclear what caused the incident-his court-martial started last week...
