Scientists have invented a set of tiny sensors that can help tailor rehabilitation programs for those recovering from broken bones.

Developed by researchers at the University of Oregon , the sensors transmit real-time data about what’s happening at an injury site after being implanted in the body.

They used the technology to show that a resistance-training rehab program can “significantly improve” femur injuries in rats in just eight weeks .
