Embodiment Construction

[0131] figure 1 A schematic diagram of an autonomously controllable pullwire injection catheter 1 according to an embodiment of the invention is depicted. The catheter 1 comprises an outer catheter guide 2 and an inner operating catheter 3 , wherein the inner diameter of the outer catheter guide housing 39 is large enough to allow the inner operating catheter 3 to pass through the outer catheter guide 2 . The inner operating catheter 3 further comprises a needle channel 4 with a 0.5 mm (25 gauge) nitinol needle 5 in the distal region 6 . The inner working catheter 3 comprises reference ring electrodes 7 a , 7 b in the distal region 6 , wherein the sensor 7 b is arranged at the tip 10 of the inner working catheter 3 and the reference ring 7 a is near the tip 10 . The electrodes 7a, 7b have connections extending along the inner operating catheter 3 to the proximal region 8 to be activated by the proximal connections, ie connections to a microcontroller (not shown).
