Areas of Scientific and Practical Activity:
- development of diagnostics methods of spine, extremities and joints diseases and their consequences;
- early diagnostics of malignant skeletal tumors;
- development and implementation of new methods of conservative treatment and rehabilitation in orthopedic pathology.
Scientific areas:
- spine and joints orthopedic problems;
- spine and joints arthrology and trauma;
- oncology in children and adults.
Patients who have applied for admission to the Institute Consultative Department have the opportunity to undergo a comprehensive examination in Institute laboratories and departments by modern investigation methods:
- X-ray diagnostics;
- pathophysiological examination:
- electro-neuromyographic examination of neuromuscular system in case of musculoskeletal and peripheral nervous system pathology.
- electroneuromyographic recording of spontaneous electrical activity in trunk and extremities muscles.
- ultrasound examination of soft tissues and joints in case of musculoskeletal system disease.
- ultrasound (Doppler) examination of the arteries and veins of extremities, neck.
- ultrasound examination of abdominal organs and extra-abdominal space.
- rheovasographic examination of extremities circulation function.
- electrocardiogram recording and heart rate variability.
- biomechanical investigation (determination of gravity center, functional support ability of lower extremities, stability of musculoskeletal system, change of strength and endurance of trunk muscles);
- clinical and biochemical investigation of blood and urine to determine the metabolism:
- hematological and general clinical analyses.
- biochemical investigation: indices of protein, carbohydrate, lipid and mineral metabolism.
- hemostasis system investigation.
- performing investigation of bone and cartilage tissue condition using their metabolism markers.
- immunological and immune-enzyme assays.
- bacteriological investigation to detect the sensitivity of isolated pathogens to chemotherapy.
- investigation of structural components of connective tissue; immunological studies;
- ultrasonic dopplerography.
Great importance in patients’ examination is given to the research in the laboratory of biomechanics
- technique for measuring trunk muscles strength and endurance.
- technique for measuring strength and endurance of upper extremities muscles.
- technique for measuring strength and endurance of lower extremities muscles.
- technique of correcting foot deformity and limb shortening
- determination of functional capacity of lower extremities.
- technique of investigation of musculoskeletal system stability in the transition process from standing to walking.
- technique for measuring volume of movement in the joints of upper extremities.
- technique for measuring volume of movement in the joints of lower extremities.
- method for measuring upper limb length.
- method for measuring lower limb length.
- method of investigation of foot surface (planthography).

- dysplasia of hip joints and congenital hip dislocation
- spinal and breast deformities (scoliosis, kyphosis, spondylolisthesis, etc.)
- systemic diseases (exostosis, spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, osteogenesis perfect, etc.)
- bone tumors and tumor-like deseases.
- youth osteochondrosis (Perthes disease, Scheuermann’s disease, etc.)
- consequences of skeletal and joint fractures.
Adult patients
