This article describes the basic principles of fractional flow reserve. It covers systems to measure the blood pressure inside vessels. It

analyses the basic aspects of digitalization and the transfer of signal between senzor and computer. Three commercially produced

systems are described.

Keywords: fractional flow reserve (FFR), blood pressure, diagnostic method, digital system
