The paper presents the data that characterize the engineering re-equipping of therapeutical- and-prophylactic institutions with various-purpose X-ray diagnostic apparatuses in the Russian Federation. It is concluded that there is a need for and a possibility of re-equipping Russia's X-ray diagnostic service by using latest home developments. It is shown that the diagnostic properties of equipment with the minimum expenditures can be enhanced provided that the main elements of the X-ray image formation pathway, which are enlisted in the paper, are primarily replaced.
