The main stages of the establishment and development of the Institute are considered. Over the years, dozens of world-famous scientists have worked in the Institute, more than 770 types of diagnostic devices and stationery equipment for all sectors of the national economy have been developed, more than 620 monographs and 3300 scientific articles have beenpublished, more than 5100 copyright certificates and patents for inventions have been registered. The Institute provided significant assistance in the establishment of Departments of Non-Destructive Testing at a number of universities in the Russia/USSR (MPEI, MIREA, etc.) for the training of high-ranking engineers in the field of non-destructive testing and introscopy. The devices and equipment invented and designed at the Institute were mass-produced at many enterprises in the Russia/USSR (Elektrotochpribor factory, Volna Production Association, Introscope JSC (Chisinau), Aktyubrentgen JSC factory (Aktobe), Tochpribor KhPO (Kharkov), Veda Production Association (Kiev), SKB Gazpriboravtomatika (Moscow), Kontrolpribor plant (Moscow),Sevkavrentgen plant (Maisky).
