| description | The present invention relates to a catheter comprising: a catheter body having a first area defined as a path along which at least one channel is formed, having a front end defined as a second area, the front end having a tip to which an external force is applied, and having a gap between the first area and the second area; an optical fiber comprising an optical core inserted into the channel and positioned in the first area, the optical fiber being configured such that, as the optical core emits light to the second area through the gap, the optical fiber receives light reflected by the reflecting mirror described below; and a reflecting mirror provided inside the front end and positioned in the second area so as to have a spherical surface positioned in the direction of the first area such that the same is not flat. As an external force is applied to the tip, the distance of spacing, on the gap, between the output end of the optical core and the reflecting mirror varies, and the direction and magnitude of the external force applied to the tip are sensed on the basis of the amount of change in the amount of light reflected by the reflecting mirror. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a catheter capable of measuring the magnitude and direction of an external force applied to the front end of the catheter with a precise sensitivity by using information regarding the amount of change in the amount of light received by the optical fiber inside the catheter body.
