Advancements in biophotonics have driven the development of miniaturized imaging probes for high-resolution in vivo imaging. Probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) enables cellular-level visualization of tissues but remains challenging for retinal imaging due to the need for non-contact op
This paper proposes a novel form of a three-dimensional coaxial bowtie-shaped mechanical amplifier. The proposed model incorporates a lever mechanism into the Sarrus linkage structure. It allows the target plate to move along one axis with amplified displacement in a parallel manner. The amplifier w…
Diseases affecting the retina, such as retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration, are significant contributors to blindness globally, with a substantial risk of vision loss among those afflicted. Surgical treatment of these conditions is complex due to the delicate nature of…
In minimally invasive pain management procedures, precise needle positioning is paramount for effective treatment and patient safety. Traditional techniques like the loss-of-resistance (LOR) method may be insufficient, especially in patients with narrowed epidural spaces. The use of imaging tools su…
