Wireless magnetic millirobots deliver drugs inside the beating heart

Original: Wireless magnetic millirobots that deliver medicine inside the beating heart

Johns Hopkins researchers have developed tiny wireless magnetic millirobots designed to navigate inside a beating heart and deliver medication directly to targeted tissue. The robots are steered externally by magnetic fields, removing the need for cables or invasive catheters. The work, highlighted on a major tech forum, is drawing attention for its potential to make cardiac drug delivery far more precise and less traumatic for patients.

Why now: A new demonstration of miniature robots operating inside a living heart represents a striking advance in minimally invasive medicine.
