As part of this event, city residents can undergo radiological examinations, which allow for the early detection of the disease. Specialists assert that modern digital equipment utilizing artificial intelligence technologies ensures high diagnostic accuracy. “Early detection of the disease significantly increases the chances of timely treatment and quick recovery. Today, we are conducting examinations together with a non-governmental organization in one of the busiest areas of the city. Events are also taking place in various parts of the region, where the population is informed about the ways of transmission and methods of tuberculosis prevention. Additionally, to raise awareness among schoolchildren, essay contests and themed performances are being held,” said Zhanil Akunova, director of the Issyk-Kul Regional Tuberculosis Center.
