ABSTRACT:
A magnetic anchor remote guidance system includes an engagement member which engages with a body portion in a patient's body; a magnetic anchor made of a magnetic material, connected to the engagement member; and a magnetic anchor guide device which is disposed out of the patient's body and which produces a magnetic field to power the magnetic anchor. The body portion engaged by the engagement member is raised by supplying power to the magnetic anchor via the magnetic field produced by the magnetic anchor guide device.
