Locomotion of Sensor‐Integrated Soft Robotic Devices Inside Sub‐Millimeter Arteries with Impaired Flow Conditions

Diego Ghezzi, Mahmut Selman Sakar, Lorenzo Francesco John Noseda, Amit Yedidia Dolev, Lucio Feo Pancaldi-Giubbini, Adele Fanelli

One of the grand challenges in interventional cardiology and neuroradiology is to minimize the operation time and risk of damage during catheterization. These two factors drastically increase if the target location resides in small and tortuous vessels. Fl ...

Development of a Transient Neural Interface for Minimally Invasive Recording and Stimulation

Adele Fanelli

Transient electronics enabling devices to safely disappear in the environment can be applied not only in green electronics, but also in bioelectronic medicine. Neural implants able to degrade harmlessly inside the body eliminate the need for removal surger ...

Transient Neurovascular Interface for Minimally Invasive Neural Recording and Stimulation

Diego Ghezzi, Philippe Reymond, Laura Ferlauto, Adele Fanelli, Elodie Geneviève Zollinger

Neural interfaces are used to mitigate the burden of traumatic injuries, neurodegenerative diseases, and mental disorders. However, the transient or permanent placement of an interface in close contact with the neural tissue requires invasive surgery, pote ...

All-polymeric transient neural probe for prolonged in-vivo electrophysiological recordings

Diego Ghezzi, Laura Ferlauto, Paola Vagni, Adele Fanelli, Elodie Geneviève Zollinger

Transient bioelectronics has grown fast, opening possibilities never thought before. In medicine, transient implantable devices are interesting because they could eliminate the risks related to surgical retrieval and reduce the chronic foreign body reactio ...

Flow driven robotic navigation of microengineered endovascular probes

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Diego Ghezzi, Mahmut Selman Sakar, Augusto Martins Lima, Adele Fanelli, Lucio Feo Pancaldi-Giubbini, Pietro Luciano Jakobus Dirix

Minimally invasive medical procedures, such as endovascular catheterization, have considerably reduced procedure time and associated complications. However, many regions inside the body, such as in the brain vasculature, still remain inaccessible due to th ...
