INSPECTION DEVICE AND METHOD FOR POSITIONING AN INSPECTION DEVICE

摘要

An inspection device includes a distal area, a proximal area, and a flexible area disposed between the distal area and the proximal area. The flexible area includes a plurality of segments disposed displaceably to each other. At least one external guide element is disposed outside of the flexible area, between the distal area and the proximal area so that the distal area can be displaced with respect to the proximal area via the external guide element.
