Abstract

Robotic Needle Steering In the Review Article (DOI: 10.1002/aisy.202500478), Yu Sun, Changsheng Dai, and co-workers review recent advances in robotic needle steering technologies for percutaneous interventions, focusing on three key areas: real-time sensing, physics-informed modeling of soft tissue and needle interactions, and adaptive trajectory planning for closed-loop control. They further outline emerging directions in AI-driven autonomy and the use of advanced biocompatible materials, highlighting their potential to improve the safety, precision, and adaptability of robotic-assisted clinical procedures.
