Under dispensary supervision in the polyclinic of the city clinical hospital No. 12 there are 27 people who participated in the liquidation of the consequences of the Chernobyl accident. In 1993, a comprehensive medical examination of this contingent was carried out with the participation of occupational pathologists of the Republican Center for Occupational Pathology. Each case was considered individually, taking into account the state of health examined before exposure to radiation, data of the clinical picture and paraclinical research methods, specialist consultations; the final conclusion was formulated after a panel discussion. The participation of specialist doctors from the Republican Center for Occupational Pathology and the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Tatarstan was of an advisory nature, since regional interdepartmental expert councils created in Russia have the authority to resolve expert issues to establish a connection between existing deviations in the health status of persons with radiation exposure.
