But Cboset wondered if his snakes might be useful for medicine as well. For some heartsurgeries, the doctor has to open a patients chest, cutting through the breastbone. Recoveringfrom these surgeries can be very painful. What if the doctor could perform the operation byinstead making a small hole in the body and sending in a thin robotic snake?
Choset teamed up with Marco Zenati, a heart surgeon now at Harvard Medical School, toinvestigate the idea. Zenati practiced using the robot on a plastic model of the chest and thentested the robot in pigs.
