[Applications of micromechatronics in minimally invasive surgery]
Abstract
With the development of Micro Electro Mechanical System(MEMS), it's application in the fields of biomedical engineering becomes a vital consideration. This paper describes the advantages of Minimally invasive Surgery (MIS) and its applications. A novel medical endoscope driven by micro robot is also introduced.
