This article discusses the history of the creation of fluorography, its physical foundations, operating principles, and importance in medicine. The properties of X-rays, the structure of the fluorography apparatus, the procedure for conducting the examination, the advantages of traditional and digital fluorography, and radiation doses are analyzed. The role of fluorography in the early detection of tuberculosis and other respiratory diseases, and the need to comply with radiation safety rules during diagnostic examinations are also described.
