Resumo: | The invention of roentgenphotography by Manoel de Abreu and its consequent widespread use in Brasil are described. Due to legal requirements, children, young people and pregnant womem are submitted repeatedly and, very often, to unnecessary examinations. After the atomic explosions of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the knowledge that even minimum dosis of ionizing radiation can cause serious somatic and genetic risks, the widespread use of abreugraphy became cause of serious concern for Public Health workers, since its advantages are outnumbered by its cost and by the risk it offers to those submitted to this type of examination. According to recent litterature on the subject and following specific recommendations of the World Health Organization, abolition of widespread use of abreugraphy is proposed, with the elimination of the Brazilian legal requirements which make this method of examination mandatory in many situations. |

É descrita a descoberta, por Manoel de Abreu, da roentgenfotografia e sua aplicação maciça na população brasileira onde muitas vezes, por exigência legal, crianças, jovens, mulheres grávidas eram submetidos a exames repetidos e, freqüentemente, desnecessários. Com as explosões atômicas de Hiroshima e Nagasaki e o conhecimento de que mesmo doses mínimas de radiações podem condicionar sérios riscos somáticos e genéticos, a abreugrafia sistemática passou a constituir séria preocupação para os sanitaristas, uma vez que as vantagens, que são poucas, oferecidas por este método diagnóstico são contrabalançadas pelo seu alto custo e pelo risco que oferece às populações. Com, base na literatura e em particular em declaração especifica da Organização Mundial de Saúde, é proposta a abolição da abreugrafia sistemática, com a eliminação, na legislação brasileira, dos dispositivos que a tornam obrigatória em numerosas eventualidades.
