Repina Nataliia

Graduated from the pediatric faculty of the Kyiv Bohomolets Medical Institute, dip;oma with honors, continued her education in the specialty "pediatric surgery".

"My formation as a doctor took place at the "OKHMATDYT" hospital, where I had been working for more than 18 years as an endoscopic surgeon and an ultrasound doctor. There I`ve gained valuable practical experience. I consider myself as a carrier of this medical school and I am proud of it.

The new stage of my professional development I associate with "Oberig" clinic. Our diagnostic department is equipped with expert-class scanners that allow me to master innovative ultrasound techniques and develop exponentially".

I am a member of the European Association of Ultrasound Specialists in Biology and Medicine EFSUMB (individual membership).

I love studying and agree with the thesis "The eye sees only what the mind is ready for."

I constantly improve my professional level at European schools and congresses:

• 2020 - European online school "Multiparametric ultrasound diagnostics of the liver".
• 2019 - School "Ultrasound Elastography: Clinical Application" and "Ultrasound with Contrasts in Clinical Practice" at the European Center of Elastography (Romania).
• 2018 - Annual Congress of the Israel Association of Radiologists, Yale University School of Radiology.
• 2017 - annual meetings of the International Skeleton Association MUSoc (Israel),
• 2016-2013 - European congresses of the Association of Ultrasound Specialists in Biology and Medicine (EFSUMB) and practical schools within the educational programs of the congresses (Germany, Greece, Israel).

State awards:

Ultrasound techniques:

• abdominal and retroperitoneal organs,
• pelvic organs,
• thyroid and mammary glands,
• musculoskeletal system,
• central and peripheral nervous systems,
• various types of vascular studies (Doppler sonography), incl. in children (neurosonography, ultrasound of the hip joints, thymus, pyloric stomach).

I`m experinced in minimally invasive methods of treatment under ultrasound control (co-author of the patent for the invention "Method for the treatment of deeply located echinococcal cysts of the liver" in 2011), puncture biopsy of the thyroid, mammary glands, lymph nodes.

I supporter the idea of preclinical diagnostics, an integral approach to the interpretation of ultrasound results, standardization of research.

The priority areas for me are innovative technologies in ultrasound diagnostics - all types of elastography, including non-invasive assessment of liver fibrosis, ultrasound monitoring of the effectiveness of treatment in cancer patients - the Fusion study, ultrasound diapeutics.

Co-founder and active member of the International Charitable Foundation "Pediatricians Against Cancer".

The best training for me is working with patients in the clinic on a daily basis, because "ultrasound is an art that is only taught in a practical environment."

I grew up among medical students, was fascinated by biology from an early age, drew histology albums for my older sisters, and worked as a preparator at the medical department at university. I am not from a medical dynasty, but I believe that this choice of the profession was very natural and was made thanks to my family.

In addition to medicine, I have been interested in sports since childhood. I have a sports category in figure skating. The injury hindered the development of my sports career and led me to medicine.

I value people's intelligence and professionalism, depth and modesty, mercy and purity.

In the profession I follow the principle "The master goes to victory with firm and silent steps ".
