Hybrid Tendon-Actuated and Soft Magnetic Robotic Platform for Pancreatic Applications

In our new paper, we highlight the advantages of a hybrid robotic platform that combines tendon-driven actuation for precise positioning and motion compensation with magnetic catheter actuation, enabling damage-free cannulation of the pancreatic duct. Additionally, we present a comprehensive evaluation of different magnetic profiles for performing the same cannulation, introducing the potential to utilise either […]
