Soft robotic steerable microcatheter for the endovascular treatment of cerebral disorders.

Science robotics
Catheters used for endovascular navigation in interventional procedures lack dexterity at the distal tip. Neurointerventionists, in particular, encounter challenges in up to 25% of aneurysm cases largely due to the inability to steer and navigate the...

An agglutinate magnetic spray transforms inanimate objects into millirobots for biomedical applications.

Science robotics
Millirobots that can adapt to unstructured environments, operate in confined spaces, and interact with a diverse range of objects would be desirable for exploration and biomedical applications. The continued development of millirobots, however, requi...

A Comparison of Manual and Robot Assisted Retinal Vein Cannulation in Chicken Chorioallantoic Membrane.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is a vision threatening condition occurring in the central or the branch retinal veins. Risk factors include but are not limited to hypercoagulability, thrombus or other cause of low blood flow. Current clinically proven ...

[Development of Motion Unit of Simulated Intelligent Endotracheal Suctioning Robot].

Zhongguo yi liao qi xie za zhi = Chinese journal of medical instrumentation
A motion unit for sucking robot with a stable motion, convenient operation and process simulation is introduced. The key parameters and process data of the sucking operation were obtained from the clinical work, which provided the basis for the desig...

Robot-assisted retinal vein cannulation with force-based puncture detection: Micron vs. the steady-hand eye robot.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Retinal vein cannulation is a demanding procedure where therapeutic agents are injected into occluded retina veins. The feasibility of this treatment is limited due to challenges in identifying the moment of venous puncture, achieving cannulation and...
