In 1977 he took part in the competition for the vacant position of associate professor at the Department of Radiology in Odessa Medical Institute named after N.I. Pirogov. In 1978 the medical life of S.K. Turnovoy dramatically changed. He was invited by Academician E.I.

In 1984 clinical studies were continued at the Institute of Cardiology named after A.L. Myasnikov of All-Union Cardiological Scientific Center of USSR Academy of Medical Sciences. In 1990 Professor S.K. Ternovoy headed this laboratory, which was transformed into a department of tomography. In 1996 S.K.

Since 1979, together with NASA and the Institute of Medical and Biological Problems of the USSR Academy of Medical Sciences, to study the effect of weightlessness on the bone tissues of astronauts, a joint project has been launched. In 1984 S.K. Ternovoi defended his doctoral dissertation on the diagnosis of volumetric abdominal cavity and retroperitoneum space by the method of X-ray computed tomography.
In 1983 S.K. Ternovoy, together with Y.N. Belenkov began to work on the possibility of magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of various pathological processes.
Professor S.K. Ternovoy together with professors O.Y. Atkov and V.N. Titov developed the medical ideology of the work of diagnostic centers and their relationship with the already existing medical and preventive institutions of the country. S.K.
