Head of the department is Prof. Nestayko Oleg Valentinovich and ass.head of the department is Prof. Shcondin Alexandr Nikitivich.
The Department of Radiology's goal is to provide a well-rounded background in the radiological sciences to residents, medical and graduate students. While individual training programs are conducted by separate sections (diagnosis, nuclear medicine, physics and radiobiology), integrated didactic and practical work is offered to afford satisfactory development and correlation of knowledge.

At Radiology Department, Faculty of Medicine, we provide both under-graduate and post-graduate educational programs. The Department of radiology serves a population of approximately 650,000.

Radiography may well be the fastest technically advancing field in medicine today due to computer enhancement. Radiographers are highly skilled health professionals who work closely with physicians specializing in the use of x-rays. They provide patient services using a variety of imaging modalities.

In addition to conventional x-ray procedures, the radiographer also works with computerized axial tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound. The radiographer must apply the principles of radiation protection, use and be competent in the maintenance of delicate and complicated equipment and often deal with patients who are under stress.

The Faculty of postgraduate provision is well established and recognised as being of high quality by the professional bodies and Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education.

Resident conferences are held every morning at 8:00 AM and involve either case discussion or didactic lecture by a faculty radiologist. Radiology Grand Rounds usually are a lecture by a visiting radiologist and are held every week.

In Keeping with the goals of the Lugansk state medical university (which is our university hospital affiliation), we emphasize patient care and seek to train the radiology residents to think for themselves and to act as an integral part of the medical team in patient management.

We feel that it is important to instruct our residents how to teach. This provides them with many opportunities to teach and to present, including colloquia, journal club, case conferences, intra- and interdepartmental clinical conferences and presentations to medical students rotating through radiology.

The post graduate course is offered in the medium of English. The duration of the course is 2 years. The Ph.D. degree is also available for the duration of 3 year after the Post Graduation.

Minimum Eligibility for admission : MBBS, MB ChB or MD.
