Advanced Biological Imaging for Intracellular Micromanipulation: Methods and Applications

摘要

Intracellular micromanipulation assisted by robotic systems has valuable applications in biomedical research, such as genetic diagnosis and genome-editing tasks. However, current studies suffer from a low success rate and a large operation damage because of insufficient information on the operation information of targeted specimens. The complexity of the intracellular environment causes difficulties in visualizing manipulation tools and specimens. This review summarizes and analyzes the current development of advanced biological imaging sampling and computational processing methods in intracellular micromanipulation applications. It also discusses the related limitations and future extension, providing an important reference about this field.
