ANALYSIS OF EQUIPMENT PROVISIONS FOR X-RAY DIAGNOSTICS IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION
Abstract
Analysis of equipment provisions for X-ray diagnostics in the Russian Federation for the period from 2000 to 2006 is being presented. The article records the lag of Russia behind the countries with high level of public health service development both for total amount of X-ray diagnostic equipment and for the rate of their amount growth. The lag of national X-ray diagnostic equipment is especially high for the equipment for special X-ray examinations. Half of all X-ray equipment in Russia has a life time of 10 and more years. Equipment for the standard X-ray examinations prevails in its structure in contrast to the countries with high level of public health service. More than one third of equipment for fluoroscopy is not equipped with amplifiers of X-ray image. The share of digital X-ray diagnostic equipment for standard X-ray examinations is 5%, while in the economically developed countries mainly digital technologies are applied. Significant differences in the quantitative and qualitative aspects of current state of X-ray diagnostic equipment in the various Federal districts and administrative territories of the Russian Federation are observed.
