Magnetic resonance compatible tactile force sensing using optical fibres for minimally invasive surgery

This thesis presents research in design, fabrication and testing of magnetic resonance (MR) compatible tactile array sensors based on light intensity modulation using optical fibres. The popularity of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) opens the field of tac-tile sensing for medical use, especially in...
