Intervention levels for protection of the public in a radiological emergency are theoretically derived by the cost-benefit approach with the concept of justification and optimization. Intervention levels on the sheltering, evacuation, temporary relocation and permanent resettlement for protection of the public are estimated with the cost to protective countermeasures and the value from dose averted which are the site specific parameters. As a result, it is confirmed that IAEA guidelines for intervention levels are applicable to the radiological emergency in Korea. Optimum ranges of 5 - 10 mSv/2days for sheltering, 25 - 130 mSv/week for evacuation, 15 - 90 mSv/month lot temporary relocation and 600 - 3,500 mSv/lifetime for permanent resettlement for intervention levels are also provided. The result can be applied as useful data to update intervention levels under the theoretical background in Korea.

방사선치료에서 결손조직의 보호를 위해 사용되는 기존의 결손조직 보상체는 체표윤곽을 얻기위해 컴퓨터단층촬영영상이나 자기공명촬영영상등의 의료영상을 이용해 왔다. 하지만 이러한 촬영을 위해서는 고가의 비용이 소요되고 방사선치료에 따른 체표윤곽의 변화에 적절히 대응하지 못하는 등의 단점이 지적되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 사용이 간편한 디지털 카메라로 환자를 촬영한 후 얻은 2차원 이미지를 이용하여 결손조직 보상체를 제작하고 이의 유용성 평가를 위해 기하학적, 선량학적 평가를 수행하였다. 그 결과, 조직결손을 보정하고 정상조직을 보호할 수 있어 임상적용의 가능성을 확인 할 수 있었다.

뉴스페이스 시대가 도래하고 양자컴퓨터로 기존 암호체계의 파훼가 수월해진 오늘날 인공위성의 보안모듈은 고성능의 상용 부품을 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 PE와 Al의 복합소재를 활용하여 내방사선 능력이 적은 상용 부품을 사용한 인공위성 탑재 보안모듈의 차폐 방안을 제시하였다. 기존의 Al 단일 소재로 제작된 차폐 하우징의 성능과 경제성을 개선하기 위해 PE와 Al의 복합소재를 연구하였다. 이를 위해 OMERE를 통해 저궤도 위성의 임무 환경을 분석하여 PE와 Al 복합소재의 우주방사선 차폐성능과 Al 단일 소재의 우주방사선 차폐성능을 PHITS와 SRIM을 이용하여 비교분석하였다. 연구 결과, PE와 Al의 복합소재를 활용한 차폐 하우징은 가볍고 경제적인 장점을 가지며, 성능도 크게 향상됨을 확인하였다. 이러한 연구 결과는 보안모듈에 한정되지 않고 위성 부품의 차폐에 새로운 가능성을 제시함으로써, 전반적인 우주산업 발전과 위성의 임무 수행 실패율 감소에 기여할 수 있다.

This study is to figure out the amount of primary X-ray generated in SID 50cm, 1m, and 2m penetrating protective aprons in X-ray radiography for hands, skull, and lumbar spine. Results are as follows: Firstly, the exposure dose of primary X-ray which is low such as that of hand X-ray may be reduced by 270 times if protective aprons are worn, but it still slightly penetrates 0.3mm thick Pb protective aprons at SID 50cm, 1m, and 2m. Secondly, the exposure dose of primary X-ray which is moderate such as that of skull X-ray may be reduced by 22 times if protective aprons are worn, but it still fairly penetrates 0.3mm thick Pb protective aprons at SID 50cm, 1m, and 2m. Thirdly, the exposure dose of primary X-ray which is very high such as that of lumbar spine X-ray may be reduced by 13 times if protective aprons are worn, but it still penetrates a lot 0.3mm thick Pb protective aprons at SID 50cm, 1m, and 2m. Therefore, people in X-ray room should not only wear protective aprons at any spaces that the primary X-ray can reach, but also need to stand behind the thick Pb shield to protect the body if it is inevitable to stay in the room.

The electronic equipment which was exposed to high level pulsed radiation is damaged as Upset, Latchup, and Burnout. Those damages has come from the instantaneous photocurrent from electron-hole pairs generated in itself. Such damages appeared as losses of power in military weapon system or of blackout in aerospace equipment and eventually caused in gross loss of national. In this paper, we have implemented a RDC(Radiation detection and control module) as part of the radiation protection technology of the electronic equipment or devices from the pulsed gamma radiation. The RDC which is composed of pulsed gamma-ray detection sensor, signal processors, and pulse generator is designed to protect the important electronic circuits from the pulse radiation. To verify the functionality of the RDC, LM118s which had damaged by the pulse radiation were tested. The test results showed that the test sample applied with a RDC was worked well in spite of the irradiation of the same pulse radiation. Through the experiments we could confirm that the radiation protection technology implemented with RDC had the functionality of radiation protection to the electronic devices.

Purpose: The cancer treatment which uses radiation from next year when the X-ray is discovered with the fact that it is started. The radiation treatment technique for a cancer treatment is developed ceaselessly without and it is come and, with advancement of the computer and electromagnetic engineering it joins in and quickly, it was made to do a many development from radiation treatment field. Accordingly, this study is examine in the radiotherapy technique which is developed that importance to therapeutic principles and methods. Materials and Methods: We had investigated record for radiotherapy technique which is developed and we had acquired information widely at clinical experience data. Results: The cancer treatment which uses the radiation of today is repeating a dazzling development. Past the treatment which is two-dimensional it does not correspond in therapeutic objective but currently 3 dimension three-dimensional moulding treatment or centurial control radiation treatment this the fourth dimension therapeutic technique which is in parallel to be introduced the complication solution in compliance with a normal organization protection and the radiation which are a difficult problem of during that time radiation treatment possibly did. Conclusion: 3-dimensional and 4-dimensional modern radiation treatment which is developen is that corresponding in objective of radiation treatment and the evaluation that again it does thick, judges in about the cancer treatment which uses radiation with the fact that the protection of normal organization is almost become accomplished.

X선은 발암성이 있는 방사선이지만 X선을 잘 다루어 셀수도 없는 인명을 구해내고 있다. 농약의 경우도 편파적인 생각으로 그 안전성을 논하는 것은 오히려 인류의 안전에 위협이 될 수 있다. 앞으로의 과학기술발전에 획기적 성과를 기대할 수도 있겠지만 지금으로서는 무농약재배로 인류 생존은 불가능하다.

Nuclear emergency planning is to plan sheltering, evacuation and iodine prophylaxis for the residents living in the area where the emergency plan is needed, the area is confirmed based on the dose assessment using the source-term through an accident analysis and the data measured from meteorological tower. In this study, the does change before and after protective measures was assessed stochastically based on the one year meteorological data in the condition of the maximum hypothetical accident which can be considered at the research reactor 'HANARO', and the optimized protective measures were derived based on the reference levels defined as a residual dose by ICRP 2007 recommendation which can be applied in a emergency exposure situation. The optimized protective measures for the HANARO in the maximum hypothetical accident were the evacuation to radius 300 m, the sheltering from 300 m to 800 m, the iodine prophylaxis only for the emergency workers under the protective measures for non emergency workers.

This study was designed to evaluate the protective effect of silkworm hemolymph against ${\gamma}-irradiation$ induced damage in the liver of mice. Female Balb/C mice (6 weeks old) were exposed to ${\gamma}-irradiation$ (6 Gy) and administered orally to silkworm hemolymph ($5ml\;kg^{-1}$ BW) for 7 days post-irradiation. The body weight, spleen index, plasma aspartate transaminase (AST), plasma alanine transaminase (ALT), and liver malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were determined. Compared with irradiated control mice, the activity of plasma AST and the level of MDA were significantly decreased in mice treated silkworm hemolymph. These results show that silkworm hemolymph is found to have a protective effect against ${\gamma}-irradiation$ induced damage in mice.
