Abstract
An elongated medical device with a modified drive surface for use with a drive mechanism of a robotic system includes an elongate body having a distal portion configured to navigate the lumen of a human body channel and a proximate portion having a surface different from that of the distal portion and adapted to better interact with the driving mechanism than the surface of the distal portion. The surface of the proximate portion may include at least one of an optical or a magnetic marker.
