Objectives
Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, and early diagnosis is crucial. This project aims to develop a magnetically controlled sampling micro-robot to achieve precise, controllable, and efficient targeted sampling of lung micro-lesions, which is of great significance. The project will modify the surface interface to create an anti-adhesive and sensitive micro-robot, develop a multi-stage delivery strategy that combines front-end intervention delivery with back-end magnetic navigation, and establish a control scheme for drive-sampling-recovery three motion modes. With the assistance of medical imaging technology, the magnetically controlled sampling micro-robot will accurately target lung airway tissue for directional and precise sampling, providing technical support for early screening and lesion diagnosis of lung diseases.
