Can the procedure of a colonic endoscopy be transformed into a more pleasurable experience? Are scientists developing a new way of carrying out flexible endoscopy procedures using techniques found in Nature based on a wriggling worm? Can the bending forces be reduced and so lessen the chance of damage to a patient’s internal organs if […]
