Estudou-se a situação epidemiológica da raiva bovina em Minas Gerais de 1998 a 2006. Foram avaliadas 6873 fichas de diagnóstico de raiva por imunofluorescência direta. Para análise da distribuição temporal da raiva, foram construídas tabelas e gráficos no software Excel 2003 e o mapeamento dos diagnósticos foi feito no aplicativo Tabwin 1.4. Verificou-se tendência anual decrescente do número de exames e dos diagnósticos positivos (Y= -41,133x+544,89). Os meses de maio, junho e julho apresentaram o maior percentual de diagnósticos positivos. O número de municípios com raiva bovina variou ao longo do período estudado e manteve tendência decrescente (Y= -7,0833x+166,64), com expansão da doença para os municípios da região do Triângulo Mineiro.<br>Epidemiological data of bovine rabies were evaluated after analyzing 6,873 files collected in Minas Gerais state, from 1998 to 2006.
