[The studies and progress of MEMS-based micro surgical tools].
The MEMS-based micro surgical tools are a kind of new devices applied in the minimally-invasive surgery. This paper introduces their application background and basic technology first, and then lays emphasis on the typical research accomplishments in the world. Finally, the research activities in China and some of the difficulties about the work are discussed.
