Abstract
Due to their wide range of clinical application possibilities, magnetic actuation technologies have grabbed the attention of researchers worldwide. The design, execution, and analysis of magnetic catheter systems have advanced significantly during the last decade. The review focuses on magnetic actuation for catheter steering and control of the device, which will be explored in detail in the following sections. There is a discussion of future work and the challenges of the review systems, and the conclusions are finally addressed.
