Imaging-guided bioresorbable acoustic hydrogel microrobots.

Science robotics
Micro- and nanorobots excel in navigating the intricate and often inaccessible areas of the human body, offering immense potential for applications such as disease diagnosis, precision drug delivery, detoxification, and minimally invasive surgery. De...

Automated segmentation of metal stent and bioresorbable vascular scaffold in intravascular optical coherence tomography images using deep learning architectures.

Physics in medicine and biology
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent placement is a treatment effective for coronary artery diseases. Intravascular optical coherence tomography (OCT) with high resolution is used clinically to visualize stent deployment and restenosis...

Growth Factor Delivery for the Repair of a Critical Size Tibia Defect Using an Acellular, Biodegradable Polyethylene Glycol-Albumin Hydrogel Implant.

ACS biomaterials science & engineering
Growth factor delivery using acellular matrices presents a promising alternative to current treatment options for bone repair in critical-size injuries. However, supra-physiological doses of the factors can introduce safety concerns that must be alle...

Biodegradable microrobots for targeting cell delivery.

Medical hypotheses
These days, cell delivery is considered a potential method for treatment of many genetic diseases or tissue regeneration applications. In conventional cell delivery methods, cells are encapsulated in or cultured on biocompatible polymers. However, th...
