1-15. (canceled)
The intravenous pacemaker electrode, comprising:
- an electrode cable, comprising;
- a conductor;
- a channel;
- an insulating sleeve;
- an electrode head attached to a distal end of the electrode cable to transmit a plurality of stimulation pulses;
- an OCT catheter that moves in a duct and has a thread-like guide element;
- and
- an OCT measurement element attached to a distal end of the OCT measurement element for optical coherence tomography.
