New Laser Technology May Be Used to Create Medical Micromachines
Japanese scientists have used two lasers linked to a computer program to create the world's smallest sculpture by etching a 3-D image of a bull onto a red blood cell, which measures just ten by seven micrometers across.
Professor Satoshi Kawata, who is head of the Laboratory for Scientific Instrumentation and Engineering at Osaka, believes that the same technology "could be used to create micromachines that are small enough to run inside blood vessels."
As reported by www.bbc.co.uk on August 16, 2001, Professor Kawata speculated that such micromachines could be used to deliver drugs to specific body tissues or to work as sensors in order to measure physiological parameters such as blood current.
