Scientific and educational base of the BMI department – Institute of Medical Radiology and Oncology named. S.P. Grigorieva National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine is mastering new methods of radiation diagnostics. The Philips Precedence SPECT / CT hybrid tomographic imaging system is now being installed, which will allow X-ray and radionuclide tomographic examination to be performed in one scanning session. In Kharkov, such a system is being installed for the first time, and in Ukraine there are no more than five of them. The installation and start-up of this unique tomograph is carried out with the direct participation of our students Sergey Grebenka (master’s student of the II course) and Vladimir Rogovts (4 course), who are already employees of this Institute and gain invaluable practical experience in the launch and maintenance of a unique electronic medical imaging system
