Abstrakt: The county polyclinic provides the radiophotographic control of a rural population of 122.741 inhabitants from the area surrounding the capital city of Bucharest. Of the total number of cases of pulmonary tuberculoses that have been recorded only 16,6% were detected in the fixed center and 61,8% by integral detections, carried out by the radiophotographic caravans. That is why the authors consider that this is not the right time to abandon integral detection. The fixed centers, by performing examinations in all those entering new jobs detect cases of tuberculosis belonging to other geographical areas. Thus, of 235 cases detected over a period of 3 years, 67% belonged to other territories and only 33% were from the population normally covered by the center. This is the filter role played by fixed centers carrying out radiophotographic detection. As compared with the 235 cases of tuberculosis there were 399 cases of non-tuberculous pulmonary diseases.
