3D character animation uses the various entertainment factors such as movie, advertisement, game and cyber idol and occupies an important position in video industry. Although character animation makes various productions and real expressions possible, it is difficult to make character like human body without anatomical understanding of human body. Human body anatomy is the basic knowledge which analyzes physical structure anatomically, gives a lot of helps to make character modeling and make physical movement and facial expression delicately when character animation is produced. Therefore this study examines structure and proportion of human body and focuses on character modeling and animation production based on anatomical understanding of human body.

The surgical technique of mitral valvuloplasty or transcatheter mitral valve (MV) replacement has been developed recently. Surgeons and interventionists require detailed anatomical information on the MV for the purpose of treatment planning. In this review, we discussed the anatomic features of the MV on CT and the method of evaluating the MV for treatment planning, as well as its preservation, for interventional procedures.

Shoulder MRArthrography was performed to get an accurate diagnosis about complex anatomical structure in shoulder joint. We carried out how the changes of anatomical rotations in shoulder joint could bring certain diagnosis effects on MRI images for various shoulder humerus positions; Neutral position, Internal rotation position and External rotation position. In addition, we prepared an aid tool in oder to maintain the right posture of a patient. This aid tool was made by adapting Modeling Design Program. By virtue of this aid, we obtained the following result. Shoulder MR Arthrography by the External rotation position for anatomical structure diagnosis was the most suitable in diagnostic evaluations of important anatomical structures in shoulder joint such as Biceps tendon, Supera-spiatus tendon, Sub-scapularis tendon, Labrum and Sub-acromial space.

MRI는 주로 부인과 질환의 진단에 이용되어 왔으나 뛰어난 연조직 대조도와 다면 영상 능력으로 남성 골반강의 평가에서도 그 활용이 점차 확대되고 있다. 남성 골반강 MRI는 전립선을 중심으로 발전되어 왔으나 음경과 음낭, 요도 등을 침범한 외상, 종양 등의 질환에 매우 유용하므로 이들 부위에서의 MRI 이용이 더욱 증가할 것으로 보인다. 여기서는 전립선, 음경, 음낭 등의 남성 골반강 장기를 평가하는데 필요한 검사기법, 정상 해부학, 이상 질환의 MRI 소견 등에 대해 기술하고자 한다.

Purpose : To describe normal anatomy and compare the differences of external genital organs and urethra on MR imaging in pre- and postmenopausal women. Materials and Methods : A total of 19 pre- and 18 postmenopausal healthy women underwent pelvis MR imaging at 1.5 T. Two radiologists retrospectively scored and compared the image quality of female external genitalia and urethra on axial T2-weighted images (T2WI) and axial fat-suppressed contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images (FSCE-T1WI) by using Wilcoxon signed ranks test. The radiologists compared the wall thickness or size of external genital organs and urethra on FSCE-T1WI between two groups by using Student t test. Results : Image quality was better with FSCE-T1WI than with T2WI in all subjects (p < 0.05). The vestibular bulb, clitoris and labium minor were more clearly visualized on FSCE-T1WI in premenopausal subjects rather than in postmenopausal subjects (p < 0.05). The urethra had a target-like appearance with three layers in premenopausal and postmenopausal subjects. Postmenopausal subjects were observed to have significantly smaller vaginal wall thickness, urethral wall thickness and vestibular bulb width than premenopausal subjects (p < 0.05). Conclusion : The anatomy and morphologic changes of female external genital organs and urethra were well discernible on FSCE-T1WI.

시술 중 제공되는 2D영상은 실시간으로 환자와 시술도구의 상태정보를 제공해주지만 환부의 입체적ㆍ해부학적 파악이 어렵다. 따라서 긴 촬영시간으로 시술 전 획득되는 3D영상과 시술 중 얻어지는 2D영상간 정합영상은 영상 유도술에 있어서 유용한 정보를 제공한다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 볼륨영상으로부터 혈관모델을 추출하고 이를 평면으로 투영하였다. 두 2D영상에서 정차대상이 되는 혈관골격을 추출한 후 혈관의 분기특성을 고려 한 초기정합을 수행하였다. 크기와 초기 위치를 맞춘 혈관골격을 골격간 거리가 최소가 되도록 반복적으로 혈관을 기하변환시키고 최종 변환된 혈관골격을 시술 중 제공되는 2D영상에 겹쳐 가시화 하였다. 이로써 시술시간 경감과 시술성공률 향상을 유도할 수 있는 시술경로맵을 제시하고자 하였다.

컴퓨터 하드웨어 기술과 멀티미디어 기술의 발달로 멀티미디어 입출력 장치를 이용한 고급 인터메이스의 필요성이 대두되었다. 친근감 있는 사용자 인터페이스를 제공하기 위해 실감 있는 얼굴 애니메이션에 대한 요구가 증대되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 사람의 내적 상태를 잘 표현하는 얼굴의 표정을 3차원 모델을 이용하여 애니메이션을 수행한다. 애니메이션에 실재감을 더하기 위해 실제 얼굴 영상을 사용하여 3차원의 얼굴 모델을 변형하고, 여러 방향에서 얻은 얼굴 영상을 이용하여 텍스터 매핑을 한다. 변형된 3차원 모델을 이용하여 얼굴 표정을 애니메이션 하기 위해서 해부학에 기반한 Waters의 근육 모델을 수정하여 사용한다. 그리고, Ekman이 제안한 대표적인 6가지 표정들을 합성한다.

3D histology is a imaging system for the 3D structural information of cells or tissues. The synchrotron radiation propagation phase contrast micro-CT has been used in 3D imaging methods. However, the simple phase contrast micro-CT did not give sufficient micro-structural information when the specimen contains soft elements, as is the case with many biomedical tissue samples. The purpose of this study is to develop a new technique to enhance the phase contrast effect for soft tissue imaging. Experiments were performed at the imaging beam lines of Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL). The biomedical tissue samples under frozen state was mounted on a computer-controlled precision stage and rotated in $0.18^{\circ}$ increments through $180^{\circ}$. An X-ray shadow of a specimen was converted into a visual image on the surface of a CdWO4 scintillator that was magnified using a microscopic objective lens(X5 or X20) before being captured with a digital CCD camera. 3-dimensional volume images of the specimen were obtained by applying a filtered back-projection algorithm to the projection images using a software package OCTOPUS. Surface reconstruction and volume segmentation and rendering were performed were performed using Amira software. In this study, We found that synchrotron phase contrast imaging of frozen tissue samples has higher contrast power for soft tissue than that of non-frozen samples. In conclusion, synchrotron radiation propagation phase contrast cryo-microCT imaging offers a promising tool for non-destructive high resolution 3D histology.

Current advances in CT techniques allow thorough evaluation of the beating heart. The strengths of cardiac CT relative to echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging are its high availability in most institutions, rapid production of high-quality images, and outstanding delineation of the anatomy. For many normal variants and pathologic conditions, such as thrombi, masses, and congenital abnormalities of the left atrium, CT findings are sufficient to make a presumptive diagnosis. Assessments of the left atrium and left atrial appendage are particularly important for the management of atrial fibrillation, as various catheter-based procedures are aimed at the mechanical and electrical isolation of these structures. CT offers information crucial to a successful catheter-based procedure or surgery. Therefore, a comprehensive review of the geometry (shape, size, and relative position), along with various CT imaging features of pathologic states, should be provided in radiology reports to be of clinical value.

척추의 MR촬영은 두부 다음으로 흔하게 시행되고 있는데, 척추의 해부학 적 구조물들은 일반적으로 널리 알려져 있고 이해하기가 쉽기 때문에 척추의 MR영상을 분석하는데 큰 어려움이 없을 수 있다. 관절부위를 포함한 근골격계 MR영상에서는 MR ar디facts가 병변을 관찰하는데 장애를 초래하여 위양성 혹은 위음성의 결과를 나타낼 수 있기 때문에 빈번히 언급되고 있다. 척추 MR영상을 판독하는 데는 다른 근골격계 영상에 비하여 artifact의 빈도 나 정도는 작지만, 의외로 많은 pitfall이나 ar디fact들이 관찰된다. 척추 MR 영상의 pitall과 artifact에 대한 정확한 인지와 이해가 필요한 이유는 MR영상에서 병변이 관찰되지 않거나 정상조직이 병변처럼 관찰될 수 있고, 또 병변의 특정을 잘못 판단할 수 있기 때문에 artifact를 교정하거나 최소화시키고, 방지할 수 있는 방법들을 사용하여 더욱 정확한 척추 MR영상의 결과를 얻는데 있다. 지면 관계상 모든 종류의 MR artifact를 언급하기 보다는 척추 MRI를 판독하면서 병변과 혼동을 주는 MR artifacts를 먼저 살펴보고, 진단적 오류를 범할 수 있는 pitfall들에 대하여 알아보도록 하겠다. 여기에서는 편의상 MR 촬영과 관계된 artifact들만을 artifact라고 하고 MR artifact와 직접적으로 연관이 없으면서 위양성이나 위음성을 초래할 수 있는 pitfall이나 variant를 pitfall로 묵어서 설명하겠다.
