摘要：
Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to master-slave apparatuses as well as methods of making and implementing the same. As consistent with one or more embodiments, an apparatus includes a master platform having a manipulation section, and a slave platform mechanically coupled to the master platform and having an interventional-delivery section that secures an interventional tool. The slave platform moves in accordance to three-dimensional movement of the master platform, via supports having a portion thereof fixed relative to the other supports. Each support operates with a respective one of the master and slave platforms for effecting three-dimensional movement of the slave platform, in response to and while tracking (e.g., transmitting) the movement of the master platform, thereby providing control over the interventional tool via the manipulation section of the master platform.
