Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) occurring outside the gastrointestinal tract is uncommon. When GIST is found outside the gastrointestinal tract, it has greater possibility to be diagnosed with metastatic lesion from other primary focus. But it rarely occurs in extragastrointestinal tract primarily, and then even outside abdomen. We experienced one case of GIST occurred from right buttock area of 25 year-old man. We could not find out the primary focus in abdomen. The tumor was developed inside gluteus medius and minimus and extended to pelvic inner area destroying iliac bone and adjacent sacrum. Here, we report the case of GIST with terminology of extragastrointestinal stromal tumor (EGIST).

It is well known that hepatobiliary agent are taken up by metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) as well as primary HCC. But the reported cases of the extrahepatic metastasis of HCC diagnosed by hepatobiliary scintigraphy are for the most part hematogenous ones. The relation of the uptake pattern of hepatobiliary agent in the primary and metastatic HCC is also still remains unknown. So we undertook this study to evaluate the relation of the hepatobiliary scintigraphic patterns of primary and metastatic HCC with different metastatic routes. Nine patients with primary HCC and twelve cases of metastatic HCC including four lung metastases, one bone metastasis, one right atrial metastasis, one peritoneal wall metastasis, and five lymph node metastases were studied with $^{99m}Tc-DISIDA$ scintigraphy. The images were taken on 10, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4-6 hours. The overall detection rates of hematogenous metastases(lung and bone) is 60%(3 of 5), direct metastasis(right atrium and peritoneal wall), 100%(2 of 2) and lymphatic metastases, 0%(0 of 5). In four of five metastatic cases demonstrated with hepatobiliary scintigraphy, biliary agent is also taken up by primary HCC lesions. And the appearing time of the radioactivity in the direct metastatic HCC lesioin is same as that of primary HCC and in the cases of hematogenous metastasis, earlier than that of primary HCC. Hepatobiliary scintigraphy is more useful in the diagnosis of the metastatic HCC than primary HCC, in the cases of hematogenous and direct metastasis.

Purpose: To evaluate clinical and radiologic outcomes of transphyseal anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in patients with open physes who were selected with authors' new operative indications. Materials and Methods: We evaluated 15 patients with open physes who underwent a transtibial ACL reconstruction and were followed up for 4~6 years after surgery. Our operative indications involved 1) choronologic age of ${\geq}$ 16 in male and ${\geq}$ 14 in female, 2) open physes of ${\leq}$ 2 mm width, and 3) Risser sign and Tanner stage of ${\geq}$ 3. Tibialis anterior tendon allograft was used in all patients, and endobutton and bioscrew were used for femoral and tibial fixations, respectively. Functional outcomes were evaluated using Lysholm Knee Scoring scale, Tegner activity scale, and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) 2000 subjective score. Physical examinations to evaluate stability involved Lachman and pivot shift tests. For radiographic results, we evaluated side to side differences of anterior displacement in stress views. In addition, with use of scannograms taken at last follow-up, we examined side to side differences of femorotibial angles, anatomical and mechanical lateral distal femoral angles, mechanical medial proximal tibial angles and leg lengths. Results: The mean Lysholm Knee score was 51(40-61) points preoperatively and 97(94-100) points at last follow up. The mean Tegner activity score was 2.6 points preoperatively and 7.1 points at last follow up. The mean IKDC score was 32.6 points preoperatively and 88.3 points at last follow up. The mean anterior displacement of the tibia was improved from 6.7(${\pm}1.0$) mm to 1.9(${\pm}0.9$) mm. There were no leg length discrepancies over 5 mm and no statistically significant differences in all the radiographic variables representing growth disturbance. Conclusion: This study suggests that patients with open physes who selected by authors' new indication would safely undergo transphyseal ACL reconstruction with successful outcomes.

Malignant melanoma is a highly malignant form of cutaneous cancer derived from melanocytes. The lesion frequently metastasizes to the lymph nodes, lung, liver and bone. However, an endobronchial metastasis and a primary malignant. melanoma of the lung are quite rare. We report a case of an unknown primary malignant melanoma with a pulmonary and endobronchial metastasis in a 34 years old male. He complained of coughing and black-colored sputum. Abnormal skin and mucosal lesions were not found during a physical examination. A chest X-ray revealed multiple nodular masses in both lung fields. A flexible bronchoscopy showed two yellowish small nodules at the entry of left lower bronchus. Vimentin, the S-100 protein, and HMB-45 stain positive melanoma cells were detected at the bronchoscopic biopsy specimen.

최근 대두로 성인병을 예방하고 치유하자는 움직임이 세계적으로 활발히 진행되고 있다. 대두는 오래 전부터 중요한 단백질 식량자원으로서 이용되어 왔으며 그 조성을 살펴보면 단백질 35∼40%, 지질 20% 내외를 함유하고 영양성분이 풍부하다. 대두의 최다 성분인 단백질은 암 예방과 고혈압치료에 효과가 있으며, 콜레스테롤 강하작용을 겸하고 있으며, 대두체로 100g당 평균 213mg 정도의 칼슘이 함유 되어 있어 골다공증 치유에도 유효하다고 한다. 최근 우리나라는 골다공증인구가 점차 증가되고 있으며, 기능성식품시대에 돌입한 식품업계는 칼슘함량이 높은 기능성 신소재 발굴에 혈안이 되어 있는 실정이다.

성능향상에 관한 실험을 하였다. 화자식별 방식은 등록된 음성과 테스트 음성을 비교하여 결정논리에 의하여서 화자를 식별하는 방식이다. 이러한 시스템에서 전처리(preprocessing)를 어떻게 해 주느냐에 따라서 인식률에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 논문에서는 전처리 과정 중에서 음성구간 검출에 대한 실험을 수행하여 성능을 비교 하였다. 본 논문에서는 시간영역에서 안정구간(stationary region)과 전이구간(transition region)에서 Normalized AMDF를 적용하였을 때 피치점에서 골(valley)의 기울기가 크다는 점을 이용하여 유성을 검출하였다. 그리고 검출된 유성음 구간 앞뒤로 인접 샘플의 자기상관관계함수(Autocorrelation)의 비를 이용하여 무성음을 검출하였다. 결과적으로 처리시간은 비슷하였으나 전체 인식률은 약 2%정도 개선되었다.

Osteosarcoma is mainly developing around the knee joint. But osteosarcoma of the calcaneus is rare. A 20 year old male patient visited our clinic due to persistent pain around the calcaneus. We diagnosed it to osteosarcoma of the calcaneus and treated with below knee amputation and adjuvant chemotherapy. We experienced a case of osteosarcoma of the calcaneus and would like to report it with review of literatures.

Purpose: A 6-year-old boy with osteogenic sarcoma of the left humerus underwent bone scintigraphy. Tc-99m MDP was accumulated not only in the primary tumor but also in the osseous and extraosseous (pulmonary and pericardial) metastases. Osteogenic sarcoma directly produces osteoid, both in the primary and metastatic lesions. Tc-99m MDP is avidly taken up by tumor osteoid. At initial presentation, only 2% of cases have both pulmonary and osseous metastases. The patient had osseous, pulmonary, and pericardial metastases at presentation. This case presents that increased uptakes of Tc-99m MDP by the primary and metastatic tumor were demonstrated on bone scintigraphy at presentation.

A patient with multiple myeloma, hypercalcemia, and renal failure was found to have diffuse uptake of $^{99m}Tc-MDP$ in his both lungs and stomach. This finding appears to have been due to metastatic calcification of these organs.

평균 셀 스펙트럼 효율 및 최대 데이터 전송 속도를 극대화 하는 방향으로 진화하던 3GPP LTE 표준 기술이 셀 가장자리에 있는 단말들까지 골고루 높은 데이터 전송 속도를 지원하는 기술로 진화하면서 전송 지점 간의 간섭 제어가 표준의 새로운 중요 사안으로 대두되고 있다. 이로 인해 전송지점 간의 간섭을 제어하기 위한 주요 기술인 협력 통신(coordinated multi-point transmission; CoMP) 이 LTEA-dvanced Release 11의 study item으로 합의되었고 표준화를 통한 CoMP 기술의 지원이 현실화되고 있는 상황이다. 특히 기지국의 안테나들이 셀 전 영역에 분산 배치되어 통신 서비스를 지원하는 분산 안테나 시스템 (distributed antenna system; DAS)을 heterogeneous 네트워크를 고려한 CoMP 기술중의 하나로 분류하고 DAS의 표준지원에 대한 가능성이 논의되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 LTE-Advanced Release 11에서 논의되고 있는 CoMP기술들의 표준화 진행 상황을 살펴보고 협력 통신 방법의 특성 및 시스템 설험을 통한 성능을 분석한다.
