A magnetically controlled steerable robot with the capability of flexible navigation and intraoperative ultrasonic imaging and position sensing in neurosurgery is introduced in this paper. The robot system uses a piezoelectric transducer as the ultrasonic imaging beacon and applies a permanent magne
