Resolution-Optimal Motion Planning for Steerable Needles [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Medical steerable needles can follow 3D curvilinear trajectories inside body tissue, enabling them to move around critical anatomical structures and precisely reach clinically significant targets in a minimally invasive way. Automating needle steering, with motion planning as a key component, has the potential to maximize the accuracy, precision, speed,

Implementing microwell slides for detection and isolation of single circulating tumor cells from complex cell suspensions

Cytometry Part A, Volume 101, Issue 12, Page 1057-1067, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Cell loss during detection and isolation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) is a challenge especially when label‐free pre‐enrichment technologies are used without the aid of magnetic particles. Although microfluidic systems can remove the majority of “contaminating” white blood cells (WBCs), their remaining numbers are still impeding single CTC
