The sensor guide wire () comprises, a sensor element arranged in said sensor region (), a tip region core wire () having a longitudinal axis () and extending essentially along said tip region (), and a coil () arranged in said tip region (). The coil () at least partly encloses said tip region core wire (), and a distal tip joint () is arranged at a distal end () of said sensor guide wire () for attaching said coil () to said tip region core wire (). A major part of said tip region core wire () has a circular cross-section in a plane perpendicular to said longitudinal axis ().
