Ultrasound examinations (ultrasound) are one of the most popular methods of instrumental diagnostics. Like any medical intervention, ultrasound is associated with infection risks for patients who are clearly underestimated. The epidemiological safety system of ultrasound diagnostics in our country has not been developed, which is associated with the lack of sanitary regulation in the field of this medical technology. The article presents scientific literature data characterizing the main risks of infection of patients, the view of epidemiologists and ultrasound diagnostics specialists on the epidemiological safety problem.
