title: [A diagnostic center in the practical public health system].
abstract: The authors describe a clinical diagnosis center working in close cooperation with a chair of therapy. Analysis of the activities of the center demonstrated the usefulness of medical divisions of such kind for practical health service, for it is at such diagnostic centers that profound examinations of patients, making use of present-day diagnostic methods, is possible at the preclinical stage. Such a possibility was offered to the residents of a large region who previously had to be hospitalized for this purpose. A diagnostic center brings evident economic benefit and is a clinic where physicians of primary health centers upgrade their knowledge and skills.
