In the Ulyanovsk region from October 12 will start working free mobile fluorograph

Residents of the Sengileevsky district of the Ulyanovsk region will be able to check the condition of the lungs for free without leaving their settlements. From October 12 to 16, a mobile fluorograph will run around the area. The medical complex will visit four settlements.

The first survey will be able to pass residents of the village of Tushna. Here the mobile office will work on October 12 from 10:00 to 15:00. The next day, October 13, specialists will arrive in Artyushkino, where they will receive patients from 9:00 to 15:00.

Then, on October 14, a mobile fluorograph will stop in the village of Elaur. The field work will be completed in Sengilea, where the survey will be available for two days at once - on October 15 and 16. In all three settlements reception is scheduled from 9:00 to 15:00.

The mobile medical complex will be located next to local health facilities. The procedure is free for residents.

Fluorography allows you to detect changes in the lungs, including signs of tuberculosis and other diseases of the chest. The study is used for preventive examinations, since some diseases in the early stages can occur without severe symptoms.

The regularity of fluorography depends on age and medical indications. For certain categories of citizens, the survey is recommended annually.
