Abstract
A catheter includes a positional identifier/marker at a tip section for a medical implant that needs to be aligned rotationally and/or axially and/or in terms of tilting in a human or animal body. The positional identifier is shaped and/or arranged such that a rotational orientation and/or an axial orientation and/or a tilted orientation of the tip section relative to the surrounding tissue is discernable from the position and/or orientation of the positional identifier.
