Abstract
A device for orienting a medical object in respect of an object under examination includes an orientation element, a guide element, an ancillary element, and a light guiding device. The orientation element is movably mounted about a center of rotation and is configured for the longitudinal guidance of the medical object along a guide axis. The ancillary element includes an identification marker configured to be arranged in the center of rotation. The light guiding device is configured to emit a predefined distribution of light for specification of a path. The arrangement of orientation element and ancillary element may be moved about the center of rotation arranged on the path, such that the predefined distribution of light illuminates the identification marker with a predefined light pattern, when the guide axis of the orientation element is oriented in a defined positional relationship in respect of the path.
