Abstract

The invention relates to a device consisting of a catheter (K) for introducing into the human or animal body and to the use of said device. The inventive device is characterized in that at least a part of the catheter is elastic. At least one sensor unit (PS) for determining the current position is provided at least in the elastic part of the catheter (KK), preferably on its inner surface. Outside the body, a receiver unit is provided to which the signals measured by the sensor unit (PS) are transmitted.
