title: [The importance of prophylactic fluorographic studies for the timely diagnosis of lung diseases].
abstract: Analysis of the results of fluorographic screening of the population in the city of Kiev and Zaporozhye region suggests unadvisability of carrying out mass chest X-rays examination if the tuberculosis morbidity is less than 30 per 100,000. Also, prophylactic fluorography of the population being performed once in 2-3 years fails to ensure timely diagnosis of bronchitis, bronchiectasis and lung cancer.
