Abstract
Optimization of medical exposure by substantiating the reference level of patients during diagnostic medical procedures in domestic health care requires harmonization with international recommendations. The paper sets out the history of the question of developing a reference level based on materials from international and domestic regulatory documents, draws attention to the formation of a glossary, presents possible ways of collecting information about the measured levels of patient exposure during x-ray studies obtained at the local, regional and national levels.
