  • MIT engineers have developed a magnetically steerable, thread-like robot that can actively glide through narrow, winding pathways, such as the labyrinthine vasculature of the brain. (Learn more: news.mit.edu/2...)

    The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is an independent, coeducational, privately endowed university in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Our mission is to advance knowledge; to educate students in science, engineering, and technology; and to tackle the most pressing problems facing the world today. We are a community of hands-on problem-solvers in love with fundamental science and eager to make the world a better place.
    The MIT TH-cam channel features videos about all types of MIT research, including the robot cheetah, LIGO, gravitational waves, mathematics, and bombardier beetles, as well as videos on origami, time capsules, and other aspects of life and culture on the MIT campus. Our goal is to open the doors of MIT and bring the Institute to the world through video.

      Hi Tim, I am Yoonho Kim, the inventor of the device. I am sorry to hear what you went through. I also hope that this can be used to save lives in near future. I will do my best to push it forward. Thank you so much for sharing your experience and hope!

      @@YoonhoLukeKim Kim, it is good to hear from the inventor himself,indeed.I had a brief chat with the surgeon before her surgery.He informed me the technique/device he was using is called pipeline emblization.It's a risky process( he told me there was 15% chance of a stroke) but not doing anything was also not an option since that would leave the patient with a 50% chance of stroke.Well I'm not sure about the % but all I know that right before the procedure they had to administer blood thinner which is super risky for a raptured brain anyurism patient.Post surgery the surgeon told me eveything went fine.But his face was telling me another story.Sure enough later that evening my wife's condition deteriorated and by midnight the surgeon was sitting in front of me & my son looking apologetic.He's a renowned endo vascular surgeon.Three weeks after her death I had a meeting with the surgeon.He told me and my son how deadly a ruptured aneurysm can be and the treatment in his word was - " we just play with it." So it's a hit or miss.He denied he knew something was wrong because after surgery his assitant pushed dye and no leakage was found.
      Kim, you're exceptionally gifted to be in MIT.In my grief I often wondered if and when medical science would come up with a better solution for surgeons to treat high risk patients like my wife more effectively so they don't have to say that they "just play with it" ever again to another deceased patient's relative.That's really disappointing to hear from a man involved in cutting edge medical science.
      When I saw the thumbnail, I instantly recognized it as subarrachnoid blood vessels(because of many youtube videos I watched since the tragedy) and clicked on it.
      Push for it brother.Hopefully once you succeed,fewer people's life will be destroyed like mine and more and more patients will return home instead of going to funeral home.

      @@AtlasReburdened my area of expertise is lasers so that's pretty funny. Blood has a lot of water in it which will absorb a lot of power from a laser so that may be difficult from within an artery. Mid IR lasers are still pretty immature so the laser power is low. You get a lot of signal attenuation with optical fiber. Hopefully things improve soon with lasers then there will be a lot more medical applications which will be exciting.

      @@ericl8743 In my experience the universe is a vain mistress, she'll allow almost anything if you throw enough joules at her. Perhaps we can use rapidly timed pulses to create a train of tiny cavitation bubbles in the path of the laser which aren't big enough to do major damage upon collapse, but enough to increase the mean free path of the infrared photons by a couple orders of magnitude, allowing it to cast upon the next potential cavitation site or the actual site to be cauterized. If such a technique we're viable, the addition of a second comparatively tiny optic cable would allow spectral analysis of the previous target, possibly with the need to pump a little broad spectum light down the main fiber between power pulses, and could allow for an autonomous switching from cavitation mode, into cauterization, and on to cycle shutdown with a single input from the user.

      Oh that wouldn't be that hard. We have an excellent grasp on the manufacture and use of capillary tubes. The main problem is that it would be much too slow compared to the method mentioned by François due to the fact that pushing a fluid through a small tube with any significant force has the effect of causing the tube to straighten and the force translates very well, so the flow of anything being added would have to be extremely slow. Small time is big money on a brain specialist's table.

    Great project, but using such a long thread is far too 'clunky. It's a 'wrong approach'.
    - We instead need a tiny 'submarine', or maybe a small chain of them, filled with the tools for the job (minimal mass and volume, most processing done outside the body). They can trail a hair-thin chain for retracting the whole rig, if the submarines can't be recovered by reversing or by capturing them at a peripheral blood vessel.
    - While you're at it, make a larger version suitable for doing colonoscopies similarly. The present, clumsy cable is very uncomfortable and awkward to use, and is dangerous. It puts people off having the procedure done.
    - See if you can have it ready by, say, November, and post another video. =)

      @@reesekim-dailey5429 A robot is a computer that moves. Or an apparatus or machine controlled by a computer. More strictly speaking, it is something mechanical that controls its own movement to achieve the purpose (or purposes) it was built for.

      They attach an external pacemaker and the patient won't notice a thing afterwards. Pacemakers aren't really damaged by strong magnets, it's just that placing one over them is a way to temporarily disable them if they have a malfunction.

      Of course it will. But I've seen the medical procedure a few times, and since the surgeons always use live imaging and contrasting fluids based on iodine, it is actually possible to see the vessels amazingly well. One time,it took the performing surgeon (he was very experienced) a whole hour to get into the artery coming from the aorta because the patient had immensely damaged arteries. It was really just playing with the wire until, through chance, it slid in there, but popped out again every time. I swear, by using this technology, it would have been a matter of minutes, for it could keep the wire in place and navigate through unnatural angles, like this one. Very good stuff indeed, cause this surgery often is the last hope for the patients.
