It can be stated that the number of the registered professional diseases in Hungary has decreasing steadily.

The change of the economical structure resulted in the change of the problems concerning the professional diseases too.

This is a factor counteracting the further decrease of number of professional diseases. The change of the spectrum of the professional diseases is to be expected too. The criteria of the diagnosing, the therapy and the prognosis of the professional diseases are described. The most effective method of the medical prevention of the professional diseases in the precise fulfillment of the prophylactic medical examinations.
