Researchers in China are testing an experimental 3D-printed breast prosthesis that can sense and target breast cancer relapse.

The prosthesis contains a gel made by linking together chemicals that respond to the presence of certain oxygen-containing molecules that are indicative of tumor activity.

Tests in humans are a long way off; the size and shape of the prosthesis can be personalized.
