ABSTRACT
The application maintained and increasing of the explorations with X-rays, consequence of significant development of the engineering together with evolved computacionals methodologies has allowed to reach to the great anatomical majority of locus where it seats the disease. The consequence immediate has been the increase of the exhibition of the patients to ionizing radiations. Different organizations, worried about the health publish, including with it to important societies of Radiology and also to tie international organizations directly related to the governments like the WHO and the OPS. They have emphasized the necessity to generateregulatory conducts destined to introduce the basic rules of the good medical practice. In our country a situation of smaller development in this particular area still persists. Contingencies experienced by general doctors in his professional practice in small town are described. Some situations derived from the use of conventional radiological procedures like mammography and axial computed tomography are presented commenting aspects that do necessary to prevent the doses that receive the patients in order to avoid the expression of stochasticor deterministic effects with high doses of radiation applied with medical intentions. General aspects of radiological procedures related to practices in pediatric patient emphasizing the conditions of increased risk for iatrogenic effects of radiation, particularly in those premature or new borns.
