  Researchers from the School of Engineering of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have successfully developed the world's smallest multifunctional biomedical robot, which is 60% smaller than current models.

The article from MSN discusses the development of the world's smallest biomedical robot, which is revolutionizing interventional diagnosis and treatment. This tiny robot, developed by researchers at the University of Twente in the Netherlands, measures just 100 micrometers in diameter, allowing it to navigate through the smallest blood vessels in the human body. It uses magnetic fields for propulsion and steering, which enables precise control without the need for invasive procedures. The robot can deliver drugs directly to targeted areas, perform microsurgeries, and collect real-time data for diagnostics. This advancement promises to enhance the effectiveness of treatments for conditions like cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological disorders by providing less invasive, more targeted medical interventions. The technology also holds potential for reducing recovery times and improving patient outcomes due to its minimal impact on surrounding tissues.
