MILiMAC: Flexible Catheter With Miniaturized Electromagnets as a Small-Footprint System for Microrobotic Tasks

Advancements in medical microrobotics have given rise to an abundance of agents capable of localised interaction with human body in small scales. Nevertheless, clinically-relevant applications of this technology are still limited by the auxiliary infrastructure required for actuation of micro-agents. In this letter, we approach this challenge. Using finite-element analysis, we show that miniaturiz...
