본 논문에서는 디지털 X-ray 영상에서 자동으로 손가락의 골단판을 추출하는 알고리즘과 이를 이용한 자동 뼈 나이 측정 방법을 제안한다. 골단판은 뼈의 골화 정도 및 성장 정도에 따라 변화되기 때문에 뼈 나이 평가 시스템에 적합하여 많이 사용된다. 골단판을 자동으로 추출하는 알고리즘을 이용해 골단판을 추출하고 영상인식 분야에서 사용되는 eigen analysis를 사용하여 뼈 나이를 자동으로 측정하였다.

Osteoporosis is a disease that increases the risk of fracture. In this study, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to compare bone density according to the lumbar spine rotation and inclination. The results of the showed that the bone density decreases with the rotation of the lumbar spine, but the result was not predicted in the inclination of the lumbar spine. This is due to the change of the inclusion of lumbar spine in the area of the bone and the bone density due to the overlap between the lumbar spine 1 and 4. In other words, the Radiogical technologists needs to make efforts to prevent the rotation of lumbar spine and the overlap according to the inclusion to obtain the accurate bone density results.

A Study that Cronbach Alpha values were Significantly higher at 0.813 in the Composite AP axial Radiography Signal to Noise Ratio(SNR) for Evaluating uniform Density and Advanced Images of the Entire Foot without overlap with the legs. The Subjective Evaluation ROC also scored a high score of 18 on Foot Calcaneus bone 10° from the Foot Metatarsal bone, and 18 on the Examination by tilting the Sharpness X-ray Tube 20° from the Foot Calcaneus bone. Results show uniform Density and images at 10° rearward of Foot Metatarsal bone and 20° forward of Foot Calcaneus bone during the Composite AP axial Radiography X-ray Examination of Infants.

Radiation therapy is accompanied by adverse radiation effective. In particular, it is accompanied by disorders of the vascular system. Therefore, oxygen and nutrient deficiency occurs in the regeneration area. Eventually, osteoradionecrosis is formed in this cellular environment. According to a precedent study, bone morphogenetic protein-2 is used to overcome osteoradionecrosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the regeneration ability of osteoradionecrosis by treating bone-forming protein-2 on a fibrinogen scaffold which is a biomaterial that is frequently used for bone regeneration after irradiation of the rat head. In addition, the purpose of this study was to verify the bone regeneration effect from the eight weeks. According to the experimental results, in the calvarial defected model of the irradiated mouse, making bone-formation was obtained after 8 weeks rather than bone-formation period in the early 4 weeks. moreover, it was found that the regenerated bone formation of the fibrinogen scaffold is formed from the inside of the bone of the defect area.

In the present study, polyacetal bone mimics with circular cylindrical pores were used to investigate variations of speed of sound and attenuation coefficient with porosity and microarchitecture in bone. The speed of sound and attenuation coefficient of the 6 bone mimics with porosities from 0 % to 65.9 % were measured by a through-transmission method in water, using a pair of broadband, unfocused transducers with a diameter of 12.7 mm and a center frequency of 1.0 MHz. Independently of the structural properties of the bone mimics, the speed of sound decreased almost linearly with the increasing porosity. The attenuation coefficient measured at 1.0 MHz exhibited linear or nonlinear correlations with the porosity, depending on the structural properties of the bone mimics. These results are consistent with those previously published by other researchers using bone samples and mimics, and advances our understanding of the relationships of the ultrasonic parameters for the diagnosis of osteoporosis with the bone density and microarchitecture in human bones.

In this study, a new method that automatically segments trabecular bone for its morphological analysis using micro-computed tomography imaging was proposed. In the proposed method, the bone region was extracted using a threshold value, and the outer boundary of the bone was detected. The sphere of maximum size with the corresponding voxel as the center was obtained by applying the sphere-fitting method to each voxel of the bone region. If this sphere includes the outer boundary of the bone, the voxels included in the sphere are classified as cortical bone; otherwise, they are classified as trabecular bone. The proposed method was applied to images of the distal femurs of 15 mice, and comparative experiments, with results manually divided by a person, were performed. Four morphological parameters-BV/TV, Tb.Th, Tb.Sp, and Tb.N-for the segmented trabecular bone were measured. The results were compared by regression analysis and the Bland-Altman method; BV/TV, Tb.Th, Tb.Sp, and Tb.N were all in the credible range. In addition, not only can the sphere-fitting method be simply implemented, but trabecular bone can also be divided precisely by using the three-dimensional information.

In the present study, three types of teriyaki sauce were prepared using chicken bone and eel bone, which are commonly used as the primary ingredient of teriyaki sauce, as well as codfish bone, which has various functions. The and analyzed their quality characteristics of the different types of teriyaki sauce were then compared through physiochemical and sensory evaluation. The results of this study were as follows. The water content was lowest and the ash content was highest in teriyaki sauce that was prepared using chicken bone as the primary ingredient. In addition, the Ca, K, Mg, Na and P content were highest in the teriyaki sauce that was prepared using chicken bone as the primary ingredient. The total free amino acid content was highest in teriyaki sauce prepared using chicken bone, followed by sauces prepared using codfish bone and eel bone. The levels of free amino acids evaluated in this study occurred in the following order for all teriyaki sauces: glutamic acid > aspartic acid > leucine. When the sensory evaluation was conducted, teriyaki sauce prepared using chicken bone as the main ingredient was found to be best, followed by sauce prepared using codfish bone in terms of palatability and viscosity among descriptive scales, and smell and general preference among hedonic scales. The results of this study suggest that teriyaki sauce could be produced using codfish bone instead of chicken bone, which would enable production of a high value-added product through the use of a common byproduct. This would result in the efficient use of unused resources, prevention of environmental pollution and supply of an inexpensive that could be widely used in the food processing and food service industries.

Multiple bone metastases are common manifestation of many malignant tumors such as lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer and renal cell carcinoma. Bone metastasis is secondary cancer in the bone, and it can lead to bone pain, fracture, and instability of the weight bearing bones, all of which may profoundly reduce physical activity and life quality. Treatment for bone metastasis is determined by multiple factors including pathology, performance status, involved site, and neurologic status. Treatment strategies for bone metastasis are analgesics, surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. External beam radiotherapy has traditionally been an effective palliative treatment for localized painful bone metastasis. However, in some cases such as multiple bone metastases, especially osteoblastic bone metastasis originated from breast or prostate cancer, the radiopharmaceutical therapy using $^{89}Sr$, $^{186}Re$, $^{188}Re$, $^{153}Sm$ and $^{117m}Sn$ are also useful treatment option because of administrative simplicity (injection), few side effects, low risk of radiation exposure and high response rate. This article offers a concise explanation of the radiopharmaceutical therapy for multiple bone metastases.

본 연구는 작은 생선은 뼈째로 먹을 수 있지만 큰 생선은 생선뼈를 거의 이용하지 못하여 생선의 맥에 포함되어 있는 무기질을 유효하게 이용할 목적으로 유기산을 첨가해서 생선뼈 스프를 만들었을 때, 유기산의 종류와 가열시간이 뼈로부터 용출되는 칼슘, 인 함량의 변화에 대하여 조사하였다. 생선뼈에 함유되어 있는 수분과 무기질 함량은 생선뼈의 종류에 따라 달랐고, 큰 생선의 맥일수록 수분 함량은 감소하는 경향이었다. 유기산을 첨가하여 12시간 가열했을 때 스프에 용출된 칼슘은 잿방어뼈에 구연산, 사과산을 첨가하였을 때가 $61.34\%$와 $60.50\%$로 가장 많았고, 인의 용출도 칼슘과 같은 경향이었다. 칼슘과 인의 용출량은 참치뼈에 $4\%$의 사과산을 첨가하여 12시간 가열했을 때에 573mg, 78mg으로 가장 높았다. 참치뼈 스프의 칼슘과 인의 비율은 대조군에서는 칼슘보다 인의 용출$(0.21\~0.35)$이 많았으나, 유기산을 첨가하였을 때는 칼슘의 용출$(0.98\~10.86)$이 많았다. 단백질과 총 유리아미노산의 용출은 대조군보다 유기산을 첨가하였을 때가 증가하였다.
