      @Becca – To be honest i don’t know much about microbots but i think we are still some time away before they are actually used in hospitals. The technique will require a lot of development and clinical trials (which are necessary before a new treatment is available) usually last a few years. They need to determine the dose, the side effects etc. It is definitely an exciting idea!
