自其早期发展阶段以来，微机电系统（MEMS）已经显示出在医疗工具制造方面取得突破的潜力。使用MEMS技术的各种设备的小型化使微创治疗和原位测量成为可能。本文介绍了MEMS在医学领域的两大应用进展：(1)用于脑活动评估的微针装置、经皮给药系统和生物流体采样；(2)用于监测血管和呼吸器官内部状况的微型化MEMS传感器。此外，我们还概述了MEMS传感器在开发新药、检测生命体征和其他应用中的应用。
Since their early stages of development, micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) have shown potential for breakthroughs in the fabrication of medical tools. The miniaturization of various devices using MEMS technology has enabled minimally invasive treatments and in situ measurements. In this paper, we introduce two advancements in MEMS applications in the medical field: (1) microneedle devices for brain activity evaluation, a transdermal drug delivery system, and biological fluid sampling; and (2) miniaturized MEMS sensors for monitoring the conditions inside blood vessels and respiratory organs. In addition, we provide a summary of MEMS sensors used in developing new drugs, detecting vital signs, and other applications.
