  • 85명의 유방암 환자를 대상으로 이들의 유방영상을 검토하고 유방암 환자들의 특징을 살펴보고자 한 본 논문에서 유방암 환자들의 평균나이는 51.9세이었고, 유방암이 가장 많이 발생하는 부위는 상외측(43.5%)인 것으로 조사되었으며, 유방암이 가장 많이 발생하는 연령은 40대 인 것으로 조사되었다. 유방암 환자들의 유방조직밀도는 69.4%가 dense breast이었고, 30.6%가 fatty breast인 것으로 조사되었으며, 이 두 그룹의 평균연령은 dense breast를 가진 그룹이 유의하게 낮은 것으로 조사되었다. 유방영상의 위음성률은 27.1%, 민감도는 72.9%로 조사되었고, dense breast를 가진 환자들의 유방영상 위음성률은 32.2%, 민감도는 67.8%로 조사되었다.

  • 방사성 동위원소를 체내에 주입한 후 감마 카메라로 방출되는 방사선을 획득하여 전기적 신호로 바꾸어 영상을 구성하고 그 획득 영상을 사용하여 유방암을 진단하는 유방 신티그라피가 최근 유방암 진단에 각광을 받고 있는 영상진단 방법이다. 그러나, 일반 감마 카메라는 주로 전신 영상 획득을 얻기 위한 것으로써 커다란 검출기를 사용한다. 이는 유방암 진단용 영상 획득에는 불필요할 뿐만 아니라 비용도 많이 드는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 기존의 일반 카메라가 유방암 진단 부분에서 가지는 단점을 보완하고자 보다 정확한 유방암 진단 영상을 획득할 수 있고 저가인 PC용 소형 감마 카메라 시스템을 개발하는데 있어 필요한 신호 획득 과정과 영상 완성 과정을 설명하고 획득영상에 대한 가시적 진단을 돕기 위한 영상 표현 응용 프로그램의 확장기능들을 정의하고 구현한다.

  • Synchrotron radiation (SR) imaging enables us to observe internal structures of biologic samples without staining. In this study, we obtained X-ray microscopic images of human breast tissues with 11.1 KeV hard X-ray microscope of the Pohang light source and used zone plates and phase-contrast technique to get high resolution X-ray images. Hard X-ray microscopic images of fibrocystic change and breast cancer tissues with a spatial resolution of 60 nm were obtained and from these images, we could observe the micro-structures of human breast tissue. Also we analyzed and compared these images, which revealed distinct features of each condition. In conclusion, SR imaging with phase-contrast hard X-ray microscope for medical application, especially in breast disease can give some useful information for clinical research.

  • 최근 포항 방사광 가속기 연구소에 미세구조 X-선 영상 실험을 위한 5C1 방사광(Synchrtoron Radiation) 빔라인이 건설되었다. 광대역의 에너지 스펙트럼을 가진 방사광 X-선이 물체를 투과한 후 CdWO$_{4}$ scintillator에 의해 가시광선으로 바뀌고, 그 빛을 CCD 카메라로 받아들여 영상을 획득하게 된다. 방사광 X-선은 일반 의료진단용 X-선에 비하여 위상이 일치하고, 평행하며, 그 양이 풍부한 특성들을 갖고 있다. 방사광 영상시스템과 X-선 유방촬영 시스템에서 영상을 획득하여 영상특성들을 비교, 분석하였다. 고-분해능 X-선 시험 패턴(20 line pairs mm$^{-1}$), 유방촬영 팬텀, 파라핀에 고정한 인체 유방암조직과 포르말린에 고정한 인체 유방암조직, 그리고 capillary tube내 micro-bubbles등의 방사광 영상은 기존의 X-선 유방촬영시스템에서 얻은 영상보다 분해능이 뛰어나고 영상질도 우수하였다. 방사광 X-선 영상시스템은 micrometer 공간 분해능 영상을 획득할 수 있어 많은 기초분야의 영상연구와 의료영상분야에서도 활발하게 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

  • Male breast cancer is rare, accounting for approximately 1% of breast cancers. Metastasis from extra-mammary malignancy to the breast in men is extremely rare. The most common primary tumors that metastasize to the breast in male are prostate, lung, stomach, colorectal cancer, melanoma, and sarcoma. To our knowledge, only a few cases of bladder cancer presenting with metastasis to the male breast have been reported, and metastasis with infiltration rather than mass is extremely rare. We report imaging findings on mammography and ultrasonography in a 59-year-old male with bladder cancer metastatic to the breast.

  • Purpose : The goal of this study was to survey the quality control of mammographic phantom images in some area. Methods : Between May and June, 2005, I have got a total of 47 mammographic phantom images collected from 49 hospitals and were analized about phantom score of fibrous, speck, tumor with enlargement scope. By critic level of experimental mammographic phantom case images, classified through the pass case that fibrous score 4, speck score 3, tumor score 3 over. Result : It passed 33case (70.3%), failed 14 case (29.7%) about 47 case. Passing case images showed tube voltage $23{\sim}30\;kVp$, tube current $20{\sim}60\;mAs$, photographic density $0.48{\sim}1.77$ Conclusion : It passed case about 70.3% of mammographic phantom image in some area. Optimum range of tube voltage, tube current, photographic density have to use to get fine quality of mammographic images.

  • For the purpose of early diagnosis of the breast cancer, the attention on the screening mammography has been increasing-with supply of digital mammography day by day. Image quality is decided by target materials and filter combinations. Optimized selection by a glandular density and a thickness is needed, because these combinations change x-ray spectrum and effect to image quality. The purpose of this study is to find out optimized target and filter combinations through the evaluation of quantitative image quality and to suggest means which minimize patient dose through MCNPX. In results, spatial frequency resolution evaluation which is quantitative image quality evaluation method, MTF, NPS, DQE shows that we have to select Mo/Mo combinations or Mo/Rh combinations when compressed breast is thin. but in case of that when compressed breast is thick, we have to select Rh/Rh combinations or W /Rh combinations. In a comprehensive evaluation, W!Rh combinations which are not used in thin breasts in practice was superior to all image quality evaluation. This result is somewhat different-with clinical examination results. Secondary end point was organ dose evaluation, radiation dose of opposite breast was approximately 47 ~73% effectiveness when selecting standard breast. In conculsion, the most important point is that we have to select the optimal combinations-with considering dose evaluation and various thickness.

  • Carcinoma of the axillary tail of Spence is a rare type of breast cancer that develops at a specific anatomical position in the breast, with an incidence of approximately 0.3%. It should be differentiated from axillary soft tissue tumor, axillary ectopic breast cancer, and lymph node metastases of breast and other primary cancers. Here, we report a case of carcinoma of the axillary tail of Spence in a 47-year-old patient who visited our clinic with a lower axillary mass and was diagnosed based on mammography, US, CT, and MRI findings.

  • The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of breast cancer from mammography images and to investigate the characteristics of patients who was diagnosed as a breast cancer. The subjects for this study were 85 patients who underwent breast imaging test with screen-film method and investigated from March 2010 to October 2010. The average age of the subjects is 51.9 years old. The 43.5% of onsets were located at the upper outer quadrant (UOQ). In terms of the age group, group for 40-49 ages were highest 37.6 (32/85)%. As for breast composition, fatty and dense breast were 30.6% (26/85) and 69.4% (59/85) respectively. The average age of the patients with fatty breast is 62.4 years old, whereas those with dense breast was 46.5 years old. The false negative rate of mammography images was 27.1% (23/85) and the sensitivity of mammography was 72.9% (62/85). The false negative rate of the patients with dense breast was 32.2% (19/59). the sensitivity of them was 67.8% (40/59).

  • The most common cause of a palpable mass or asymmetry in male breast is gynecomastia; however, male breast cancer should not be overlooked as a cause, even though it is rare. It is important to know the anatomy and frequency of diseases that affect the male breast, and the differences compared to females, to make an accurate diagnosis and reduce unnecessary examinations and surgical procedures. This review aims to summarize the algorithm of breast exam in symptomatic men, gynecomastia, and breast cancer.
