Subjects and methods. A one-time anonymous survey of 140 physicians was carried out, they filled in a special questionnaire, consisting of two parts (general and qualification ones), including 13 questions.
Results. The questionnaire showed that the knowledge of physicians on the modern principles of detection and diagnosis of tuberculosis was heterogenous, especially related to patients with HIV infection. Training in the standards of examination for respiratory tuberculosis should be included in traditional professional development programs and programs of the continuing medical education for physicians of all specialties.
