PROBE ARRANGEMENT

摘要

The aim of the invention is to provide a probe arrangement comprising a distal probe tip (2) and a proximal hand piece (1), for the electrothermal coagulation of tissues. Said probe arrangement comprises at least one first and one second electrode (11, 13) in the region of the distal probe tip. An inner conductor (10) of the probe arrangement extends from the distal probe tip (2) to the proximal hand piece (1) and establishes an electrical contact with the first electrode (11) in the distal probe tip. An outer conductor (19) of the probe arrangement extends from the distal probe tip (2) to the proximal hand piece (1) and is used to establish an electrical contact with the second electrode (13) in the distal probe tip (2). Said inner and outer conductors (10, 19) of the probe arrangement are electrically isolated from each other. Furthermore, the inner conductor (10) is selected in such a way that the flexural strength of the probe arrangement between the probe tip (2) and the handpiece (1) is increased.
