An implantable medical device, which is connected or is to be connected to at least two elongated electric function conductors for the transmission of treatment signals or diagnostic signals or both, and at least one electrode pole connected to at least one of the function conductors, via which electrode pole electric current can be delivered in the case of use to surrounding tissue of the body or with which electric potentials can be sensed in the surrounding tissue or both. Includes a wave transfer module connected to the function conductor and which is embodied to transform waves arriving via a function conductor and to switch them as transformed waves onto another function conductor or the same function conductor in such a controlled manner that the waves are destructively superimposed at the electrode pole.
