title: [Current objectives in the organization and progress in pathological services in rural public health].

It involves regional centralization, provision with travelling laboratories for autopsy and rapid biopsy evaluation, additional personnel admission to reduce overwork. A standard notice is developed for registration of the discrepancy between a clinical and pathological diagnosis aimed at perfection of statistically significant estimation of misdiagnosis with a lethal outcome. To ensure a radical change in rural pathologic service and its material supply, it is necessary to establish its independent status under the control of central regional or republican pathologic bureaus and relevant all-union research institute.
