In chest x-ray radiography, intensifying screen is used to the exposed dose of patients. Recently, newer materials-rere earth elements-are used in intensifying screen. Authors studied the aspects of chest x-ray radiogram and obtained the results that rare earth element intensifying screen did not harm in detail and could reduce the exposed dose of patient by 1/24 and below.

In this study, it was expected that long-term stability against external mechanical external force could be secured if the phosphor layer had ductility. In this study, a bendable $Gd_2O_2S:Tb$ sensitized paper was fabricated by screen printing method and the image uniformity was evaluated through RMS analysis and histogram analysis to investigate the effect of fatigue accumulation due to long-term external force and repetitive external force. As a result, the dominant pixel area is maintained constant and the relative standard deviation is less than 10% for the long-term external force. However, for the repetitive external force, the dominant pixel area is divided into three areas and the image uniformity is adversely affected. Based on these results, it is suggested that the curved surface detector can be applied by securing the mechanical stability against the existing radiation sensitized paper. However, further studies are needed to apply it to the flexible detector. As a result, flexible radiation sensitizers can be applied to various curved surfaces, and it is expected to be applicable to various fields such as nuclear medicine, medical treatment, and industrial fields in the future.

Purpose : To valuate the usefulness of mammographic image by using phantom 1,2 to controls the enhancement of image quality. Procedure : Set up same equipments for experiment (all the qualification must be the same). Control group and 4 other experiment the developing mammographys by using the image system with film/intensifying screen and distribute marks on each test objects of phantom 1, 2. Result : The results of the experiment using phantom 1, 2 on control group and 4 others are : 1. phantom 1's valuation with 3 items. - control group received 29 out of 32 - group A received 25 - group B received 16 - group C received 11.5 - group D received 28.5 The evaluation shows that the system has proved to display excellent image quality except group B and C. 2. Phantom 2's valuation with 4 items. - control group received 38 out of 38 - group A received 30 - group B received 16 - group C received 12.5 - group D received 38 Even with phantom 2, group B and C has displayed poor image quality. Conclusion : Both experiments using phantom 1 and 2 have shown that the most strong factor that control and influence the image quality are the filming equipments. Especially, the developing system has most powerful influence above all.

The purpose of this study is to compare microleakage and penetration depths of sealants applied in carious and sound fissures. Extracted premolars(n=80) were divided into 4 groups according to caries status. 1; sound, 2; stained, 3; initial caries, 4; enamel caries. Sealants were applied to the occlusal groove as per manufacturers' instructions, and specimens were thermocycled, stained, sectioned, and examined for microleakage and penetration ability. The results of the present study are as follow: 1. It showed significantly higher microleakage scores in group I than group Two, Three, Four(p<0.05), but no significant difference was found between group Two, Three, and IV(p>0.05). 2. It showed significantly higher penetration scores in group Four (p<0.05), followed by group One, Two, Three, but no significant difference was found between group One, Two, and Three(p>0.05). Based on the results of present study, when the borders of the fissure sealant are on carious enamel, a significantly higher microleakage must be expected. It is considered that depth of enamel caries in the fissure should be taken into account when applying a fissure sealant.
