Abstract: An implantable medical lead (1) comprises multiple electrodes (22, 24, 26, 28) arranged at a distal end (2), multiple electrode terminals (32, 34, 36, 38) at a proximal end (3) and a lead body (4) with an insulating tubing (40). A conductor coil (10) comprises a coiled tubular insulator (19) having multiple separate lumens (12, 14, 16, 18). Each lumen (12, 14, 16, 18) houses a respective conductor (11, 13, 15, 7), which is movable in the lumen (12, 14, 16, 18) relative the coiled tubular insulator (19). The conductor coil (10) is arranged in a bore (42) of the insulating tubing (40) and each conductor (11, 13, 15, 7) is electrically connected to one of the electrodes (22, 24, 26, 28) and one of the electrode terminals (32, 34, 36, 38).
