Abstract:
The gallium-based liquid metals were introduced in terms of the advantages when applied in medical field,application status in medical imaging,drug delivery,antibiosis and tumor therapy and cutting-edge application in flexible e-skin,wearable sensor and flexible medical device.The deficiencies of the gallium-based liquid metals in durability,potential toxicity,high cost of preparation and difficulty of process control were analyzed when applied in medical fields.The future development directions of the gallium-based liquid metals were pointed out.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(11):97-102]
