Sound waves have a much larger wavelength (in the tens or hundreds of meters). That can never map out the details of a cell.
Light, on the other hand, has a wavelength in the order of nanometers. If my math is correct, the wavelength of light is smaller than that of sound by a factor of around 1000000000000 on average.
