Thirty day old rice seedlings, Ilpoom and Taeback variety, grown under deficient condition of several elements in nutrition solution of sand culture were exposed to 20Gy, 40Gy, 80Gy of gamma ray $(^{60}Co)$ to study the effect of their radiosensitivity. The results obtained are summarized as follows : Plant height and fresh weight of nutrient deficient rice plants were far less than those of control. The effect was different with nutrient element and rice variety, as show increasing effect of radiosensitivity in the Ilpoom variety was high in the Fe deficient whereas that of Taeback was high in the P deficient. Growth inhibition of rice plant irradiated with 20Gy was highly occurred in the Fe and Zn deficient plot in Ilpoom variety and P and Zn deficient plot in Taeback variety. In 80Gy irradiated group, radiosensitivity of rice plant was high in the P and Ca deficient plot of both Ilpoom and Taeback variety.

This study was prepared to observe the charge of tissues weight, glutamate oxaloacetate transminase(GOT) and glutamate pyruvate transminase(GPT) activities in the liver and kidney treated with red ginseng extract injection in the gamma ray(5.0 Gy) irradiated mice groups were divied in to control, red ginseng extract injection, irradiation after saline injection and irradiation after red ginseng extract injection. The GOT activity showed earlier recovery at irradiation after red ginseng extract injection group than irradiation after saling injection group in the liver and kidney. The GPT activity showed earlier recovery at irradiation after red ginseng extract injection group than irradiation after saling injection group in the liver and kidney. The above result suggest that red ginseng extract have the protection effect on the change of GOT and GPT activity after radiation injury in the liver and kidney.

The gamma energy distributions at the major working places during refueling outage of Korean PWR nuclear power plants were measured. In order to estimate the dose reduction effect of a lead vest, Monte Carlo calculation method was used. For the simulations, the MIRD-V phantom with a lead vest was formed and exposed to the measured radiation field. The average measured gamma energy is lower than that of standard which is generally applied to radiation protection procedures. For the efficient use of a lead vest and achievement of radiation protection purpose, it is necessary to estimate the energy distribution of radiation field at working places.

In this study, we are purposed to find the educational effect of practical training using a 3D printed structure-based blind box on multidimensional radiographic image interpretation. The subjects were 83 (male: 49, female: 34) 2nd year radiological science students who participated in the digital medical imaging practice that was conducted for 3 years from 2020 to 2022. The learning method used 3D printing technology to print out the inside structure of the blind box designed by itself. After taking X-rays 3 times (x, y, z axis), the structure images in the blind box were analyzed for each small group. We made the 3D structure that was self-made with clay based on our 2D radiographic images. After taking X-rays of the 3D structure, it was compared whether it matches the structural image of the blind box. The educational effect for the practical training surveyed class faithfulness, radiographic image interpretation ability (attenuation concept, contrast concept, windowing concept, 3-dimensional reading ability), class satisfaction (interest, external recommendation, immersion) on a 5-point Likert scale as an anonymous student self-writing method. As a result, all evaluation items had high positive effects without significant differences between males and females. Practical education using blind boxes is a meaningful example of radiology education technology using 3D printing technology, and it is expected to be used as content to improve students' problem-solving skills and increase satisfaction with major subjects.

In the case of radiation workers in medical institutions, radiation exposure is made for patient protection and accurate procedures, so they have a problem of low dose exposure. Low-dose radiation exposure occurs mainly in parts of the body other than the Apron area, and the most frequent place is the skin of the back of the hand. In particular, since the medical personnel's hands require senses and fine movements during the procedure, they are defenseless in the radiation exposure area and are at risk of exposure. It can solve the problem of shielding such as lead gloves, and it is difficult to use by suggesting the activity of the hand during the procedure. To solve this problem, a shielding cream capable of obtaining a functional radiation protection effect was developed and its shielding performance was compared with lead equivalent of 0.1 mmPb. In the process of manufacturing shielding cream, the shielding performance was improved by adding a defoaming process to reduce air holes to increase the density of the cream. Therefore, the shielding cream using barium sulfate as the main material has a lower shielding rate than the lead plate, and in the realm of effective energy, it is 59%, At high effective energy, a difference of about 37% was shown, indicating that there is a functional radiation protection effect. The advantage is that it can be used directly on the skin, and it is considered that it can be used before wearing surgical gloves and has a permanent protective effect.

Cysteamine(Mercaptoethyiamine, MEA), S,2-Aminoethylisothiouronium Bromide. HBr (AET), and S-(2-Aminoethyl) Dihydrogen Phosphorothioate (WR-638) were prepared and radioprotective effects of these chemicals and their combinations against $^{60}Co$ ${\gamma}-ray$ radiation were studied ,in irradiated ICR mice. Intraperitonially administered chemicals or their combinations resulted drug deaths in cases of MEA, AET, and their combinations, whereas there were a slight or no drug death in cases of WR-638 and the combination of AET with WR-638. All tested chemicals and their combinations yielded radioprotective effects against $^{60}Co$ $\gamma-ray$ radiation. An additive radioprotection effect was observed in case of the combination of AET with WR-638.

목적 : 일반적으로 세기조절방사선치료 조사면의 작은 조각 크기에 대해, 이상적인 플루언스 지도 혹은 치료계획장치로부터의 최적화된 결과에 가까운 선량분포에서 더 좋은 leaf sequence를 얻을 수 있다. 한편, 치료중 장기의 움직임이 가장 작은 조각 크기의 선택을 방해하는 문제는 항상 존재한다. 게다가, 전통적인 정지 조사면과 달리 표적이 움직이는 동안 조사면 자체도 움직이므로 움직이는 표적에 대한 세기조절방사선치료의 경우에서 적절한 표적 마진에 관한 질문이 제기되어왔다. 따라서, 이 연구에서는 조각 크기에 대한 치료중 표적 움직임의 효과를 연구하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 세기조절방사선치료 플루언스 지도에 대해, 다양한 크기 - 0.5$\times$0.5, 1.0$\times$1.0, $1.5\times$1.5, 2.0$\times$2.0, 3.0$\times$3.0, 4.0$\times$4.0, 5.0$\times$5.0 $ extrm{cm}^2$ - 의 정사각형 패턴들을 설계하였고, Leaf sequence 는 step-and-shoot 빔 전달 방법을 이용하였다. 인접 조각들 사이의 세기 비율은 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0로 하였고, 표적 움직임은 범위가 0.5-2.0 cm인 사인곡선 형태로 가정하였다. 움직임 묘사를 위해 동적 leaf 의 움직임이 표적의 움직임 을 반영하도록 계산되었고 움직임의 효과를 분석하기 위해 필름선량측정을 수행하였다. 결과 : 인접 조각의 세기 비율은 모든 경우에서 저하되었고, 호흡 진폭의 반보다 작은 조각 크기에 대한 선량분포는 임상적으로 유의할만큼 저하된 세기 지도를 보였다. 조각에 대해 방사선 조사시간의 두 호흡주기이상에 대해서는, 표적 마진 주위의 선량분포가 통상적인 정지 조사면에서와 같았다. 결론 : 플루언스 지도에서 세기조절방사선치료 조각의 최소 크기는 치료중 장기 움직임을 고려한 후 선택되어야 한다. 조각에 대한 방사선 조사시간의 두 호흡주기이상에 대해서는, 표적 마진을 기존의 정지 조사면과 같게 정의할 수 있었다.

Recently, all the electrical parts for satellite application are required more strong against cosmic rays, because spacecraft's life time and function are depending on the their conditions. Also, a TID effect test was undertaken with units and/or subsystems which are already assembled on the PCB in past time. However, it is very hard to know and analyze that some abnormal states are appeared after launch. Moreover, it is necessary to perform a test of TID effects based on the parts level for preparing preliminary data in cosmic rays. Therefore, this paper presents a test-bed to perform a TID effect test of Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) which is a fundamental element for electronics.
