Abstract
The largest advantage of magnetic micromachine is wireless operation. This advantage makes it suitable for medical micromachine working inside the human body. In the medical field, low invasion treatment is very important From this point of view, very small machines working in the body without power supply cables meet the needs of the medical field. In this paper, we report about magnetic wireless actuators for medical applications.
