Mobile Ultrasound Tracking and Magnetic Control In article number 2100144 , Li Zhang and co‐workers propose an innovative combination of eye‐in‐hand ultrasound imaging and mobile‐coil magnetic manipulation system to realize real‐time tracking and navigation of a helical magnetic robot against pulsatile flow. Two novel algorithms that can overcome the US noises and view lost are presented to ensure the tracking stability and accuracy. This method provides a promising approach for microrobot navigation in the vascular system of the human body.
