CERMET-CONTAINING BUSHING FOR AN IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE
First Claim
1. An electrical bushing for an implantable medical device, having an annulus-like holding element for holding the electrical bushing in the implantable medical device, wherebythe holding element comprises a through-opening;
- at least one elongated conduction element extends through the through-opening;
an insulation element for forming a hermetic seal between the holding element and the conduction element is arranged in the through-opening;
characterized in that the at least one conduction element comprises components made of cermet.
