Paris – September 07, 2026 -- Dyson has unveiled the CameraJet, a toothbrush with a built-in camera designed to locate gaps between teeth and clean them with a targeted jet of mouthwash. The company says it is the first brush of its kind to combine camera-guided detection with precision fluid dynamics, and it goes on sale September 1, 2026, priced at 479 euros.

A tiny camera tracks gaps between teeth in real time

A 100,000-pixel macro lens camera scans the mouth during brushing, using a machine-learning system Dyson calls Gap Optical Targeting. The algorithm processes 28 live images per second to detect, track, and predict interdental gaps, then fires a cone-shaped mouthwash jet at the identified spot within 100 milliseconds. Dyson says the system runs on 16 million lines of code and was trained on 470,000 images of teeth.

Washington – September 07, 2026 -- A new analysis published in Blood Advances finds that treatment advances for leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma and other blood cancers have saved an estimated 25.8 million life-years in the United States since 1949. The study, led by Blood Cancer United, introduces a first-of-its-kind "life-years saved" methodology built on data from the National Cancer Institute's SEER Program, tracking cancer incidence, mortality and U.S. life expectancy from the era of the first chemotherapies through 2024.

Blood cancers now account for nearly 10% of all U.S. cancer diagnoses, with more than 192,000 new cases expected this year. Unlike many solid tumors, where screening and prevention drive survival gains, progress against blood cancers depends almost entirely on new therapies and access to them.
