Scientists at the California Institute of Technology and City of Hope Beckman Research Institute [have been working](https://phys.org/news/2020-01-ultrasound-cancer-cells-tuned-frequencies.html) on low-frequency ultrasound that targets cancer cells. In theory, healthy cells and cancerous cells have different physical properties that allow soundwaves of [fine-tuned frequency to target cancerous](https://phys.org/news/2020-02-ultrasound-cancer-cells.html) cells and destroy them through vibration. Tests are not yet being done on humans, and not in animals either.
