Type: article
Abstract: Teleoperated Surgical Robotic Systems In article number 2404623, Thanh Nho Do and co-workers introduce a motor-free soft robotic platform designed for cancer detection, microsurgery, and in-situ 3D bioprinting for wound healing in minimally invasive delivery. This system leverages soft fibrous syringe architectures (SFSA) to achieve miniaturization, enhanced flexibility, and precise motion control. Additionally, it integrates micro-bioelectronics for electrochemical impedance measurements and radio-frequency ablation, enabling advanced diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities.
