Magnetic-actuated miniature robots have sparked growing interest owing to their promising potential in biomedical applications, such as noninvasive diagnosis, cargo delivery, and microsurgery. Innovations are required to combine biodegradable materia...
Presurgical evaluation with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can reduce postsurgical morbidity. Here, we discuss presurgical fMRI mapping at ultra-high magnetic fields (UHF), i.e., ≥ 7 T, in the light of the current growing interest in ar...
Many cardiac diseases, such as arrhythmia or cardiogenic shock, cause irregular beating patterns that must be regulated to prevent disease progression toward heart failure. Treatments can include invasive surgery or high systemic drug dosages, which ...
The forefront of micro- and nanorobot research involves the development of smart swimming micromachines emulating the complexity of natural systems, such as the swarming and collective behaviors typically observed in animals and microorganisms, for e...
OBJECTIVE: Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) provides an estimate of the magnetic susceptibility of tissue using magnetic resonance (MR) phase measurements. The tissue magnetic susceptibility (source) from the measured magnetic field distribu...
As the alternative solution to the conventional guidewire, the magnetic robot can help interventionists perform percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) because magnetic fields are transparent and safe for biological tissues. Despite extensive resear...
Magnetorheological elastomer thin films (MREFs) exhibit remarkable deformability and an adjustable modulus under magnetic fields, rendering them promising in fields such as robotics, flexible sensors, and biomedical engineering. Here, we fabricated M...
Small-scale robots capable of remote active steering and navigation offer great potential for biomedical applications. However, the current design and manufacturing procedure impede their miniaturization and integration of various diagnostic and ther...
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a powerful high-resolution tool for characterizing biomacromolecular structure, dynamics, and interactions. However, the lengthy longitudinal relaxation of the nuclear spins significantly extends the t...
