Abstract

Background: Intramuscular myogenic-cell transplantation in humans and nonhuman primates requires so far precise repetitive injections very close to each other. Performed with syringes operated manually throughout large regions, this procedure takes a lot of time, becoming tiring and thus imprecise. Objective: We wanted to develop a specific device for intramuscular cell injections, aiming to solve some of the problems observed during our clinical and pre-clinical practice. Methods: Different mechanical principles and mechatronic components were investigated to determine the optimal mechanical arrangement for a prototype.
