Laparoscopic colonic surgery

open access: yesJournal of British Surgery, 1995
Abstract Laparoscopic surgical techniques have recently entered the field of colorectal surgery. Because the laparoscopic approach has revolutionized biliary surgery, it is hoped that similar advances will be possible in the more elderly population with colorectal disease.

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...
