간장에 공간점유성병변(암, 농양, 낭종성병변, 혈종 등)이 있을 때는 정적간이미징에서 모두 냉구로 나타난다. 따라서 진단적 특이성이 없다. 그러나 감마카메라를 적절히 잘 이용하면 간암과 간농양을 쉽게 그리고 단시간내에 진단 및 감별할 수 있다. 즉 간암이나 간농양이 의심되는 환자에게 핵제제를 이용한 간동맥기에 열구로 나타나서 정맥기에도 계속 더 강한 열구로 나타내게 되며 간섭취기에는 열구의 음영이 점점 약해져서 종말에는 선명한 냉구로 변해 버린다. 그러나 간농양은 간동맥기, 간정맥기 및 간섭취기 모두에게 계속 냉구로 나타나므로 쉽게 간암과 감별진단이 가능하다. 한편 이 검사는 정적간이미징을 위하여 핵제제를 경정맥투여시에 부담없이 시행하게 되므로 루틴화가 가능하며, 앞으로 간암의 조기진단에 크게 기여하리라 확신한다.

Purpose: We analyzed the result of autologous bone marrow stromal cell transplantation with or without cancellous chip bone allograft for benign long bone lesions. Materials and methods: Since July 1996, eight benign bone lesions treated by curettage, cancellous chip bone allograft and bone marrow or marrow stromal cell transplantation were observed for resolution of clinical symptoms, new bone formation and consolidation. There were 6 males and 2 females. Average age was 24 (range 8 to 47) years old. Histologic diagnoses were 5 fibrous dysplasia, 2 simple bone cysts and one chondroblastoma and fibrous cortical defect each. Mean follow-up period was 16.3 (range 3 to 84) months. Results: In all four symptomatic patients, the pain was subsided in two weeks after surgery. New bone formation in the lesion was observed at 4 weeks, which incorporated into surrounding normal bone around 8 weeks. There were one pathologic fracture through the lesion at 3 weeks and one recurrence of simple bone cyst at 5 months postoperatively. Conclusion: Bone marrow or marrow stromal cell transplantation for bone defects from curettage of benign bone lesions, with or without cancellous chip bone allograft revealed rapid healing. Though it was the result of short-term follow up, it supports that bone marrow stromal cell transplantation will be very useful for the treatment of benign long bone cysts or other lesions. The complete curettage of inner cystic wall is important to prevent later recurrence, and the rigid internal fixation is also needed in selected high risk lesions of fracture.

This study was carried out to investigate expression of apoptosis-related differentially expressed gene (DEG) in ovaries of Korean cattle with follicular and luteal cysts and to identify the relationship between cyst and apoptosis using microarray, real-time PCR, TUNEL staining, and Western blot analysis. Microarray data showed that PIK3R2 and AKT1 were significantly up-regulated in follicular cyst, and TNF-RAF2, PRLR, FOXL2, STK4, and COL4A3 were up-regulated whereas INHA, CIDEB, BCL10, and FASLG were down-regulated in luteal cyst. Real-time PCR was performed to validate DEGs altered in luteal cyst. Of nine DEGs, four DEGs down-regulated in luteal cyst showed a positive corelation between microarray data and real-time PCR data. In this study, we focused on INHA, among many DEGs, which was highly down-regulated in both follicular and luteal cysts. Real-time PCR and micro array data showed that INHA was down-regulated by 12.3-fold and by 1.4-fold, respectively, in the bovine follicular cyst. TUNEL assay and Western blot analysis for ERK, JNK, p38, PI3K, and Akt, which were used to detect whether apoptosis is occurred, showed no significant changes in cystic ovaries (p>0.05). In the expression and activity of caspase-3, Bax, Bel-2, and Bel-xL, there was no significant changes between follicular cystic ovary and normal ovary. Rather, the expression levels of PI3K and p-Akt were decreased in follicular cystic ovary. These results suggest that deficiency of apoptosis in cystic ovary is associated with decreased expression of apoptotic effectors.

기존의 다차원 색인 기법들이 고차원의 특징 벡터를 갖는 멀티미디어 컨텐츠 검색 분야에서 만족할 만한 성능을 보이지 못하므로, 이를 해결하기 위해 VA-File, LPC-File 등의 벡터 근사 방법이 개발 되었다. 이러한 방법들은 데이터의 접근에 소요되는 시간이 전체 검색시간의 대부분을 차지하는 경우에 효과적으로 사용할 수 있다. 그러나 고차원의 멀티미디어 데이터 검색에서 객체간의 거리 계산 시간은 데이터 접근 시간에 비해 무시할 만큼 작지 않으므로 이 방법들을 그대로 적용하기는 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 객체간의 거리 계산 시간을 줄이기 위한 새로운 색인 기법을 제안하고 실험을 통해 이 방법이 기존의 방법들에 비해 우수한 검색 성능을 가진다는 것을 보인다.

고화질의 디지털 카메라 및 스마트폰, 감시용 카메라의 보급 등으로 인해 최근 패턴 인식 및 이미지 프로세싱 분야에서 고화질의 이미지 및 비디오를 처리해야 하는 경우가 많아지고 있다. 특히 차량 번호판 감지 등과 같은 객체 인식 분야의 경우, 고화질의 이미지로 인해 그만큼 인식에 필요한 계산 비용이 증가하게 되었는데 따라서 이러한 계산 비용을 효율적으로 줄이기 위한 기법이 요구되고 있다. 또한 기존의 차량 번호판 감지의 도메인과는 다르게 도로 상에서의 실시간 차량 번호판 감지의 필요성이 대두되고 있기에 본 논문에서는 도로 상에서의 실시간 번호판 감지 시스템을 위한 차량 번호판 주변정보 기반의 효율적인 윈도우 슬라이딩(window sliding) 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문의 시스템은 총 3단계로, (1) SVM(Supported Vector Machine) 을 통한 차량 번호판 주위 정보에 대한 학습, (2) 도로 상의 번호판 위치 확률 모델링을 통한 탐색 공간의 감소, (3) $context_{plate}$분류기를 통한 OCS(operator context scanning)의 수행이다. 이와 같은 $context_{plate}$분류기와 OCS를 통해 번호판 검출을 위한 윈도우 슬라이딩의 수가 크게 줄었음을 알 수 있었으며, 또한 번호판의 정보를 건너뛰지 않고, 신뢰성 있게 접근함을 알 수 있었다.

This paper presents a design and implementation of realtime video player that operates on a tiled-display system consisting of multiple PCs to provide a very large and high resolution display. In the proposed system, the master process transmits a compressed video stream to multiple PCs using UDP multicast. All slaves(PC) receive the same video stream, decompress, clip their designated areas from the decompressed video frame, and display it to their displays while being synchronized with each other. A simple synchronization mechanism based on the H/W clock of each slave is proposed to avoid the skew between the tiles of the display, and a flow-control mechanism based on the bit-rate of the video stream and a pre-buffering scheme are proposed to prevent the jitter The proposed system is implemented with Microsoft DirectX filter technology in order to decouple the video/audio codec from the player.

Congenital hepatic fibrosis is a relatively rare disease, characterized by bile ductular proliferation and prominent fibrosis in the portal area of liver resulting in portal hypertension. It is frequently associated with other abnormalities such as polycystic kidney, Caroli syndrome, cystic dysplasia of pancreas, intestinal lymphangiectasia, pulmonary emphysema, hemangioma, and cleft palate. We report here a case of congenital hepatic fibrosis associated with renal tubular ectasia in a 3-year-old girl, whose chief complaint was abdominal distension. Her liver function test did not reveal any abnormal findings. Hepatosplenomegaly and multiple dilated bile ducts were seen in the abdominal CT scaning. Esophageal varix was not detected by an endoscopic examination. Microscopically, diffuse portal fibrosis and widening with proliferation of blie ductules in the liver specimen and tubular ectasia in renal cortex were seen.

Background: Mediastinal masses are not uncommon, and an overall incidence of one case per 100,000 population per year in individuals of all ages and with no difference in sex incidence may be a reasonable estimation. At least half of all mediastinal masses are asymptomatic and this proportion has increased in recent decades with wider use of screening chest roentgenography. Symptoms in patients with mediastinal mass lesions are usually due to compression or invasion of nearby intrathoracic structures. Most mediastinal mass lesions have characteristic predilectional locations. The basic focus of diagnostic evaluation is an orderly preparation for obtaining a tissue diagnosis but even lesions discovered to be benign must generally be removed. Seldom is this status known for certain preoperatively. In additaion, benign tumors may continue to enlarge, thus compromising vital organs; they may rupture, hemorrhage, become infected or have the possibility of various malignant degeneration. Therefore, all mediastinal masses must be surgically removed whether they are malignant or benign. Methods: We reviewed the medical records of 344 cases previously confirmed as mediastinal tumors or cysts from January, 1960 to August, 1992 and investigated the clinical findings. Results: Neurogenic tumors were the most common(24.7%) and thymomas were distinctively increased recently. Overall ratio between males and females was 1.1:1 and age distribution was relatively even among all age groups. Predilectional sites were posterior for neurogenic tumors, and anterior for teratodermoid tumors, thymomas and lymphomas. Dyspnea was the most common symptom in the patients of the mediastinal tumors and asymptomatic patients were 19.5%, Benign mediastinal mass lesions were 66.0% and malignant, 34.0%, Complete or partial resection was done in 42.4%. Conclusion: We could find the increasing incidence and the tendency of aggressive resection as possible in the mediastinal tumors. We expect the discovery of more mediastinal tumors with wider use of regular check-up and development of diagnostic methods.
