Flexible Hypotubes

Jul 13, 2015

As medicine advances, surgeons are always seeking to access further into the human body. Minimally invasive, or key-hole, surgery relies on the ability to reach different parts of the body, through small access points into the arteries.

By creating these small incisions, it is possible to insert medical devices that can be used to carry out numerous procedures such as imaging, biopsy and device delivery.

However, to get to the correct place, it is necessary to navigate the arterial system, with its many bends and restricted access.

Gaining access, while not damaging the body, requires delivery devices that are flexible as well as steerable.

The surgeon must be able to transmit the push and torque of their hand to the end of the device. To obtain this a wide range of engineering methods and designs have been developed that turn stiff metal tubes into flexible hypotubes and key to this is laser micromachining.
