Experimental investigation of a twisted string actuation for usage in active catheter

Abstract: Background: The improvement of the steerability and controllability of catheters is highly required because catheter-based interventional diagnosis and therapy have become increasingly popular. However, active catheters are often complex and expensive. Methods: This study attempts to control catheter tip by a twisted string actuator. Experiments are carried out to analyze the full actuation and bending characteristics of the active catheter. Results: It is indicated that the expected bending motion can be achi… Show more
