My wife passed away after this surgery.Later the surgeon expressed his frustration to me.I hope this new technology, when implemented, saves human life in future.
Hi Tim, I am Yoonho Kim, the inventor of the device. I am sorry to hear what you went through. I also hope that this can be used to save lives in near future. I will do my best to push it forward. Thank you so much for sharing your experience and hope!
@@YoonhoLukeKim Kim, it is good to hear from the inventor himself,indeed.I had a brief chat with the surgeon before her surgery.He informed me the technique/device he was using is called pipeline emblization.It's a risky process( he told me there was 15% chance of a stroke) but not doing anything was also not an option since that would leave the patient with a 50% chance of stroke.Well I'm not sure about the % but all I know that right before the procedure they had to administer blood thinner which is super risky for a raptured brain anyurism patient.Post surgery the surgeon told me eveything went fine.But his face was telling me another story.Sure enough later that evening my wife's condition deteriorated and by midnight the surgeon was sitting in front of me & my son looking apologetic.He's a renowned endo vascular surgeon.Three weeks after her death I had a meeting with the surgeon.He told me and my son how deadly a ruptured aneurysm can be and the treatment in his word was - " we just play with it." So it's a hit or miss.He denied he knew something was wrong because after surgery his assitant pushed dye and no leakage was found.
Kim, you're exceptionally gifted to be in MIT.In my grief I often wondered if and when medical science would come up with a better solution for surgeons to treat high risk patients like my wife more effectively so they don't have to say that they "just play with it" ever again to another deceased patient's relative.That's really disappointing to hear from a man involved in cutting edge medical science.
When I saw the thumbnail, I instantly recognized it as subarrachnoid blood vessels(because of many youtube videos I watched since the tragedy) and clicked on it.
Push for it brother.Hopefully once you succeed,fewer people's life will be destroyed like mine and more and more patients will return home instead of going to funeral home.
@@timc9372 Thank you Tim, for sharing your painful memories. Treating cerebral aneurysms is indeed very challenging with high risks, and I believe technology can help improving the safety of the procedures. We are communicating with neurosurgeons at Harvard Medical School to better understand their needs and challenges in actual clinical settings. I deeply appreciate your encouragement and thank you again for sharing your stories. May God bless you and your son.

This is really cool, but I'm just imagining an intern holding a giant magnet running around the OR to direct the wire
The best comment bro... Tu hi bhai hai mera🤣🤣
lol
_AI-controlled temp magnets are one of so many methods_
probably the robotic part of all this will be the external machine that guides the wire
They'll put the magnet on a multiaxis actuator and write a program mapping an intuitive controller to a certain position and orientation of the magnet.
Is it really a robot when you're just pushing or pulling it around with a handheld magnet?
Yes.
@@oo-wr4pq what makes it a robot and not a tool?
Pulling it with magnet to me.
@@eyeofhorus1301 Yes.
Just the fact that its magnetic driven supports a future feature on which this magnetic field is remotely controlled
All I could hear was TIC, TIC, TIC, TIC, TIC, TIC, TIC all video long. Seriously, who thought it was a good idea to have a clock sound effect throughout the video?
Oh no I was tuning it out before but your comment made me start to register it
I agree.....it is really sh#t.....makes me feel like i have to go do something...getting on a bus or so
Well this video is ruined now
Honestly, I love clock sounds, so it didn't bother me at all. XD
I can agree it was a weird sound choice for the video, though.
I thought it sounded like a pickaxe mixed with the Kahoot music more than a clock

Very cool. I'd imagine you could make a map of the blood vessels with an MRI and guide it with a similar computerized machine to direct the magnetic pulses.
Oh gosh I want to be part of MIT's family
i totally didn't understant how can thread cure stroke.
but since it is made by mit so i think it will work.
An ischemic stroke is caused by a blockage such as plaque that broke off from somewhere else so surgeons need to remove these blockages to prevent the patient from dying or causing tissue death in one specific spot.
Hemorrhagic strokes have other complications as it's due to a bleed hence the name which cannot be fixed by this wire
@@ericl8743 Until they use high power density optical fiber with a cauterizing infrared laser behind it.
@@AtlasReburdened my area of expertise is lasers so that's pretty funny. Blood has a lot of water in it which will absorb a lot of power from a laser so that may be difficult from within an artery. Mid IR lasers are still pretty immature so the laser power is low. You get a lot of signal attenuation with optical fiber. Hopefully things improve soon with lasers then there will be a lot more medical applications which will be exciting.
Quantum Cascade Lasers are interesting if you'd want to read more about the subject
@@ericl8743 In my experience the universe is a vain mistress, she'll allow almost anything if you throw enough joules at her. Perhaps we can use rapidly timed pulses to create a train of tiny cavitation bubbles in the path of the laser which aren't big enough to do major damage upon collapse, but enough to increase the mean free path of the infrared photons by a couple orders of magnitude, allowing it to cast upon the next potential cavitation site or the actual site to be cauterized. If such a technique we're viable, the addition of a second comparatively tiny optic cable would allow spectral analysis of the previous target, possibly with the need to pump a little broad spectum light down the main fiber between power pulses, and could allow for an autonomous switching from cavitation mode, into cauterization, and on to cycle shutdown with a single input from the user.
A robot by definition according to the university of oxford is a machine that is able to do human movements and functions automatically. This doesn't seem very automatic to me.
The system controlling the magnets in the needle threading scenario was automatic.
@@Benni711 they use magnet
Definition for robot has changed, like a lot of definitions. Robots never had to be human analogs, nor completely autonomous. This is a robot. I wish people would stop focusing on the minutiae of the details of the definition of what they called it. It's because of dickheads like you the world is fucked.
@@UnitSe7en Please don't be rude. Let's not start an argument.
Maybe calling the development Robo-thread is a little buzzy.
Very cool technology. Awesome materials science application
Which part was the "robot"?
accurate, yet catchy title:
"Frictionless Ferromagnetic Cable for Brain Surgery"
I love you science... :)
Thank you for the amazing work that you do.
I know that one day I will be able to call myself a fully licensed engineer, but I hope that I will be able to say that I got my degree from this institution.
It is going to be rough trying to get in, but his video (in addition to countless others) has inspired me to chase after my crazy dream(s).
I hope you have an amazing day, and I look forward to seeing what else you guys invent :)
They say 98% of human race will have morgellans this is similar.
This is crazy. Love to MIT
10 mins before I stumbled apon this video I just so happen to find this while researching MIT for colleges. Google is watching me.
Oh god it reminds me of tape worms and just worms in general.
I dunno why but i am more concerned then being excited !!
Прямо как червь "волосатик" или "конский волос". )
Ето все в настоящих масках есть..
Great project, but using such a long thread is far too 'clunky. It's a 'wrong approach'.
- We instead need a tiny 'submarine', or maybe a small chain of them, filled with the tools for the job (minimal mass and volume, most processing done outside the body). They can trail a hair-thin chain for retracting the whole rig, if the submarines can't be recovered by reversing or by capturing them at a peripheral blood vessel.
- While you're at it, make a larger version suitable for doing colonoscopies similarly. The present, clumsy cable is very uncomfortable and awkward to use, and is dangerous. It puts people off having the procedure done.
- See if you can have it ready by, say, November, and post another video. =)
Friction free. That's amazing
This is going to evolve into some sort of weapon that bores into the brain and takes control isn't it?
excuse me,did u say inserting a wire from the groin to then brain!!??
actually I know many folks who've benefited from this exact surgery... the other option is typically death.
It triggers me when they bump into the vessels
Robotic thread.
Manually manipulates it....
This technology can have multiple applications if modified....not just for the medical field.
This should not even be classified as Technology. a Handheld Magnet guides a thread through a tube is not a robot.
@@toraguchitoraguchi9154 Have you seen a snakelike thread before that can be steered using a magnet ?

What about this is a "robot"?
seems more like a material science type thing then a robot?
that's wild. I can't wait to augment
Mit researches discover magnetism, create magnet maze.
Then the patient dies because the magnet corrupts the pacemaker :)
They attach an external pacemaker and the patient won't notice a thing afterwards. Pacemakers aren't really damaged by strong magnets, it's just that placing one over them is a way to temporarily disable them if they have a malfunction.
They should make the Magneto comic where he became a the worlds best neurosurgeon.
Cant wait to go here in 5 years! BET!
Why its in facemasks ar PCR nose tests??
Wow this have many aplications especialy in cardiovascular and cerebral area
Right? I can only imagine that if they can get enough light through that fiber optic for it to serve as an ablative tool then surely they can also be used as a cauterizing tool. That and a little bit more flexibility on the tip could send the concept of an inaccessible bleed or clot to the history books.
I wish one day MIT would consider those who don't prioritize on standardized test scores.
Seems to work fine so far, why would they change it
Which engineers invented the robo thread?
Peter Jamali profeesor xuanhe zhao at mechcanical engineering department
It's the University of Massachusetts actually.
@@nantzstein3311 lol a department is a area that spesificly do one task its a correct term MIT has multi departments
Technically it's not robo cuz they used magnets to make it move...
@@eri9986 technically there was no mention of the word robo here
Tech is getting better and better
Pretty sure someone’s working on converting “steering wheel” input to electromagnetic directional control as part of the project.
Wonder if it would be possible to make it a tube to allow for the direct application or removal for substances?
probably not needed : usually you find the path with the guide and then push a tube around it :) then you can remove the guidewire and start injecting fluids
I thought the same thing, it wouldn't be a trivial task
Oh that wouldn't be that hard. We have an excellent grasp on the manufacture and use of capillary tubes. The main problem is that it would be much too slow compared to the method mentioned by François due to the fact that pushing a fluid through a small tube with any significant force has the effect of causing the tube to straighten and the force translates very well, so the flow of anything being added would have to be extremely slow. Small time is big money on a brain specialist's table.
@@AtlasReburdened hmm yes I see, what about making a tiny grinding wheel for breaking down clots and how fine would it be to allow the body to naturally flush the particles?
@@Befread Well, the body is normally very good at breaking down small clots and there's medicines to help with dealing with the remnants of one that's broken up. I'm not sure that a mechanical grinder is an option at that scale but they can use ablative laser pulses and may be able to integrate an ultrasonic element into the tip which could use sound to break up clots as well.
These things aren't even surprising anymore.
Wow, this is mind blasting
One day it will be mind controlling...
So actually which part is robotic??🤔
None
@Alexander Leblanc It's a hand held magnet guiding a metallic thread through a tube- a 5th-grade science project.
That's not technically a robot, more like a flexible appendage thing tool.
@@reesekim-dailey5429 A robot is a computer that moves. Or an apparatus or machine controlled by a computer. More strictly speaking, it is something mechanical that controls its own movement to achieve the purpose (or purposes) it was built for. (Though by that definition, something as simple as a steam valve governor is a robot.)
This magnetic thread does not control its own movement.
so... we're going to go back to healing people with magnets

Thats pretty amazing
This will be ASMR to a whole new level
Love the good work. But please be more specific with the title in the future. The current one sounds clickbaity and that not something the world needs.
they should pulse multiple magnetic fields in such a way so that they can fully control the bending at any point on the wire! But hey, nice desing. It looks promising already
Hey MIT,
Won't such strong magents affect movement of ions in the bloodstream?
Well, nobody died into a fMRI because of the magnetic field, so it should be safe (unless you have metals into your body, but that's another story).
@@fendoroid3788 How Do You Know?
And no offence, but it has not been tested in real operations yet I suppose, or is it?
@@rbkstudios2923 MRI machines work with much much much powerful magnetic fields than what is produced by that one used in the video. It can only be dangerous if you have magnetic implants, or anything like that. So no, the small magnet shouldn't pose a problem. Also, there's this thing called "transcranial magnetic stimulation" where a strong magnetic field is directed directly to stimulate parts of the brain!!!! (And without negative long term consequences) . If you are interested, search for this video: "Michael mosley has areas of his brain turned off [...]" by BBC in UA-cam
The ion exchange on neural membranes happens across a tiny space. When ion transport channels open, the ions that flow in or out are already almost in direct contact with the membrane. Therefore, they experience the attraction from the ions on the other side much stronger than any force working from outside (electric field strength by the square of distance). You'd probably need a retardedly strong magnetic field (impossible to produce on Earth) to ever affect these. Long before that, you'd be pulling the person by the iron in their red blood cells. Neither happens even with the strongest magnets we can create.
I'm more interested on how they made a tube glass structure like that
I just imagine someone using it for something uhh... not so medical
Is it currently being used for blood clogging or still in the test stage?
Imagine how much progress in future when all military budget all over the world erased, instead turned and given for research n developement, for better world.
Maybe spend some time to study economy....

Since some people's brain is in their butt, it's a pretty short distance.
Is this available without the ticky noise?
Fun starts when u try to pull it back😂😂😂
I hope it isn't claustrophobic.
I better be asleep when this is done to my body cause I ain’t having thread being injected into my groin while I’m awake to see it
the metal alloy generates friction, not the polymer, right? 0:50
I'm just wondering; The blood vessels are enough to resist from the pressure of controling that "THIN" robot?
In the video, the robot touched the conners of vessels when passing the straight line. So I just wondered.
A very similar but much less precise method is already the standard for clearing deep brain clots and has high success rates. This modernization hopefully only serves to improve the success rate.
I appreciate its life saving application but this is going to give me nightmares.
Its not really Robotic when its only Magnetic string
The Only thing that made it kind of robotic is when they added a little flashlight with tiny wiring
This is not robotic. Impressive but needs total control by humans. It’s as robotic as a marionette.

Use an array of electro magnets and modulate them to influence the direction of the wire.
Well, it would be a major breakthrough in medical field.
This can be use for grow of decomposed hip joints or body joints
Read a recent article on liquid magnets! Wonder how they could help in making soft robots.💎
Not a robot but cool.
I’m guessing in the future a special bonnet would be placed over the head filled with imaging and magnets and would then be used to direct the thread.
