Robotic surgery is fascinating: as the method is minimally invasive, it allows patients to recover faster, and typically have less post-operative pain and scarring. We've seen a 3D printed surgical robot used to perform surgery on epilepsy patients, and now the University of Twente (UT) in the Netherlands has unveiled the smallest, most accurate 3D printed biopsy robot in the world: the Stormram 4. The UT biopsy robot is driven by rectilinear (moving in a straight line) and curved air pressure motors, and according to UT, is a "stimulus" for the whole phase of diagnosing breast cancer. It offers quicker, more accurate diagnoses with one, thin-needle biopsy, thanks to its accurate needle control and real-time MRI scanning.
