Music has helped bring back a comatose patient to consciousness in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province.

The young man, surnamed Li, was seriously injured in a car accident in August and was in a vegetative state.

Doctors played Li classic symphonies every day and they found from looking at brain scans that he was responding to the music.

Gradually, Li began to feel sensations in his limbs and after extensive rehabilitation treatment Li is now able to talk and walk.
