PhD Researcher in Surgical Robotics Development
1 maand geleden
Minimally invasive surgery has revolutionized the medical field by enabling interventions with minimal incisions, leading to improved clinical outcomes. This research project aims to develop methods for modeling and controlling soft/flexible surgical devices and medical microrobots as they interact and navigate through the body. Techniques will be developed to track and control the path of these devices using images from MR and ultrasound imaging modalities. The project will be conducted within the Department of Biomechanical Engineering at the University of Twente, offering excellent opportunities for collaboration with the University Medical Centre Groningen and several institutions abroad.
