Electromagnets Under the Table: an Unobtrusive Magnetic Navigation System for Microsurgery [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Miniature magnetic tools have the potential to enable minimally invasive surgical techniques to be applied to space-restricted surgical procedures in areas such as neurosurgery. However, typical magnetic navigation systems, which create the magnetic fields to drive such tools, either cannot generate large enough fields, or surround the patient in a way
