33 patients suffering from temporal arteriitis (Morbus Horton) were investigated noninvasively by Oculo-Oscillo-Dynamography (OODG), Orbita-Dynamography (ODG) and Temporalis-Dynamography (TDG). The ocular, orbital and temporal oscillograms and oscillodynamograms revealed characteristic and unmistakable alterations; i.e.

Aetiopathogenesis, clinical picture, laboratorical and functional diagnostic methods of ten patients suffering from Takayasu's arteritis out of 1164 patients suspicious of cerebrovascular insufficiency are described. The combined use of Dopplersonography, ophthalmodynamometry and ophthalmodynamography permit in all cases the assessment of vascular pathology in supraaortic arteries. The specific diagnosis was made in connection which clinical, anamnestical and paraclinical findings.

Indications for Doppler-type investigation are described together with criteria of Doppler sonography for positive detection of occlusive processes in greater brain-feeding arteries and for adequate assessment of results obtained from vascular surgery. The sensitivity of Doppler sonography amounted to 88.

97 patients with suspected cerebrovascular disease were examined using ophthalmodynamometry/ophthalmodynamography and dopplersonography. In 49 of the patients we found haemodynamic changes typical of brachio-cephalic artery occlusion processes. In 36 patients angiography was performed either as a preparation for vascular surgery or for further clarification.
