Hydatidosis is a parasite disease (of the liver, lungs, kidneys, bones and other organs) caused by larva of cystic form (cysta hydatigena) of the dog echinococcus (T. echinococcus). Its knowledge is of special diagnostic and clinic importance. The paper gives a x-ray image of the liver hydatidosis (calcified hydatid cyst, hydatid cyst with cysts-sprouts of the first order) as well as that of the lungs (hydatid cyst with the Zhebe's sign, empty pericyst) and of the kidneys (calcified hydatid cyst). In the hydatidosis diagnostics, the x-ray diagnostics is a method of choice.
