Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2011058008A1] The invention relates to an inspection device (1) comprising a distal area (2), a proximal area (3), and a flexible area (4) disposed between the distal area (2) and the proximal area (3). The flexible area (4) thereby comprises a plurality of segments (5) disposed displaceably to each other. At least one external guide element (6) is disposed outside of the flexible area (4), between the distal area (2) and the proximal area (3) so that the distal area (2) can be displaced with respect to the proximal area (3) by means of the external guide element (6).
