The angiographic appearances of inflammatory disease of bones and soft tissues was analysed in 40 patients. The angiographic findings in inflammation of bone (28 patients) differed greatly, from normal findings (14.2%), moderate angiographic changes corresponding to the severity of the inflammatory process (32.1%), marked changes in the arterial, capillary and venous beds (42.9%) and significant local staining with little peripheral reaction (10.7%). Soft tissue inflammation on the other hand showed increased vascularity in all cases. A typical angiogram was found in 50% of cases and shows the following characteristics: vascularity as compared with the surroundings is usually increased and may be extensive, far more so than is found surrounding vascular bone foci; the contrast staining is usually ill-defined and the veins in the late phase are increased in calibre. Early venous filling is common and should not be regarded as a sign of malignancy. In 17.5% of patients the angiogram simulated a tumour; in four patients (10%) a false positive diagnosis of tumour was made, in two (5%) a tumour could not be excluded and in one case a benign tumour was diagnosed because of localised staining. None of the angiograms which had been interpreted incorrectly showed typical pathological vessels, which are the most important tumour criteria.
