AUXILIARY APPARATUS FOR MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY AND METHOD TO USE THE SAME

摘要

An auxiliary apparatus for MIS includes an in vivo device and an in vitro device, to maneuver a surgery target. The in vitro device comprises an in vitro magnetic field generating element. The in vivo device includes an in vivo magnet anchoring element for the surgery target. The in vivo magnet can move and/or rotate according to the direction change of the external magnetic field, which is induced by the in vitro magnetic field generating element, and thereby the surgery target moves in a controlled speed and/or rotates in a controlled angle according to the direction change of the external magnetic field. A method to control the auxiliary apparatus is also provided.
