Summary
Endovascular interventions in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) are vital for treating cardiovascular diseases through small incisions. However, current manual and tendon-driven instruments lack precision. Magnetic actuation offers a groundbreaking solution, providing exceptional dexterity. The APOLLO project aims to develop a flexible probe capable of generating internal magnetic fields, revolutionizing MIS with advanced diagnosis and treatment options. Integrated sensors and biocompatible materials ensure precise control, meeting clinicians' needs in challenging anatomical regions. APOLLO's pursuit of commercial success involves strategic partnerships and dedicated business development efforts. In essence, APOLLO signifies a significant advancement in minimally invasive surgery, offering unparalleled precision and accessibility in treatment.
