While minimally invasive endoscopic assisted procedures including robotics, have become**the common and in some areas dominant surgical technology for several surgical specialties,**Neurosurgery has not seen the benefits of this technology in terms of improved patient**outcomes with faster recovery, shorter hospital stays, and reduced costs for lesions within the**brain.****Miniaturizing standardized wrist-joint pulley systems at tool sizes at or below 2 mm has**proved infeasible, and there is a compelling need for new approaches to tool design,**actuation, and for safety purposes, sensation. Our project goal is the development of a**miniature novel multimodal platform for actuation in intraventricular neurosurgical robotic tools**using advanced materials and novel magnetic actuation.

虽然包括机器人在内的微创内窥镜辅助手术已经成为一些外科专业的常见手术技术，并且在某些领域占主导地位，但神经外科还没有看到这项技术在改善患者预后、加快恢复、缩短住院时间和降低脑内病变成本方面的好处。****将标准化的腕关节滑轮系统小型化至2毫米以下的工具尺寸已被证明是不可实现的，因此迫切需要新的工具设计、驱动和安全感觉方法。我们的项目目标是开发一种微型新型多模态平台，用于使用先进材料和新型磁驱动的脑室神经外科机器人工具。
