Abstract
The device according to the invention ensures accurate and in particular sensitive navigation of the probe, which can be inserted into a body, despite the fact that the remote control uses simple means, by means of a movement (MR;MB;MP) corresponding intuitively to the navigation of a probe using the control device (). Intuitive operation can be converted in particular using an inventive U-shaped embodiment of the control device (). Sensitive controllability can be increased by transmitting the mechanical interaction between the probe and an environment under examination to the control device () and thus directly to the operating hand () by means of inventive feedback.
