Tiny robot can travel deep into lungs to detect and treat cancer

University of Leeds scientists have created an impressive tiny robot, inspired by the concept of “Fantastic Voyage,” that has the ability to venture deep into the lungs for early cancer detection and treatment.

Measuring a mere two millimeters (0.08 inches) in diameter and skillfully controlled by magnets, this ultra-soft device can access even the smallest bronchial tubes within the lungs.

The implications of this breakthrough are immense, as it has the potential to revolutionize lung cancer treatment, offering a more precise, personalized, and minimally invasive approach.

The robot was developed collaboratively by engineers, scientists, and medical professionals at the STORM Lab in Leeds, NBC Right Now reported.
