Summary: | A system comprises an EMD and coupled to a robotic drive. The EMD includes an external member defining a lumen and an internal member disposed in the lumen and coupled to a distal portion of the external member, and a linearly and rotationally-actuatable element coupled to the external member. The robotic drive includes a plurality of device modules, each of the plurality of device modules being independently linearly movable by the robotic drive, a first cassette coupled to a first one of the plurality of device modules and to the linearly and rotationally-actuatable element of the external member, and a second cassette coupled to a second one of the plurality of device modules and to the internal member. |
