A US newspaper has admitted that it digitally altered a front-page photograph of a Boston Marathon bombing victim so that the woman's pants covered her horrific leg wounds.

The woman's gory wounds had vanished on the large image that wrapped around the New York Daily News on Tuesday, despite the photograph appearing unedited online and in other publications in the US.

In the original photo, taken by John Tlumacki of The Boston Globe, the woman is shown lying in a pool of blood while a man crouches over her, attempting to help. A large wound is clearly visible on her leg as she lies with her hand covering her eyes.

It was one of several graphic images taken in the moments after the twin blasts that killed three people and wounded more than 175 near the finish line of the famous race.
