The method of polysegmentary occlusive rheoplethysmography was used in 90 patients with endarteritis and obliterating atherosclerosis in order to establish the phasic character of blood filling curves, the dependence of the curve prophile on the alterations in blood circulation. It facilitated diagnostics of localization and character of injuries of the arteries, detection of the collateral blood flow and the presence of compensatory vasodilatation or pathological arterio-venous output.
