摘要：
An apparatus includes a proximal coil, a distal potion, a navigation sensor, and a communication wire. The proximal coil is formed by a wire wrapped in a helical configuration. The proximal coil is flexible. The distal portion is positioned at a distal end of the proximal coil. The distal portion is non-extensible. The distal portion may be formed by a rigid tube. The distal portion may alternatively be formed by a soldered region of the proximal coil. The navigation sensor is located within the distal portion. The navigation sensor is configured to generate signals in response to movement within an electromagnetic field. The communication wire is in electrical communication with the navigation sensor such that the communication wire is configured to communicate signals from the navigation sensor.
