The purpose of this study is to correct the error of lower weight input method as an alternative to reduce the specific absorption rate(SAR) in MRI. In order to prove that the SAR values not change according to the weight entered into the patient information, the 50kg phantom is placed in the coil and the input weight is changed from 10 to 100 in 10kg units to compare the SAR values. As a result, T1-weighted images had a SAR rate of 0.2W/kg and T2-weighted images had an average of 0.4W/kg. In conclusions, the SAR does not change according to the weight input by the technician before the scan, a lower weight when inputting patient information cannot be an alternative to reduce the SAR.

There has been an increase in the public concern about possible health risks by electromagnetic exposure from mobile phones. Recently, several SAR measurement procedures have been proposed to demonstrate the compliance of mobile phone with safety limits. To determine the maximum localized SAR of a test mobile phone, the electric field distribution is measured in the head phantom with simulated tissue liquid using the probe The important parameters in SAR measurement are the E-field probe, the shape and size of phantom, the electrical parameters of simulated tissue liquid, and test position, etc. Therefore, in order to setup the measurement standard, the studies on these factors are required. In this paper, the effects of the maximum localized SAR on the test positions of mobile phones were analyzed by the numerical computation and the SAR measurement. From the results, the worst condition of commonly used positions was determined and the touch and tilted positions were adopted as test positions of the domestic SAR measurement standard.

전파기술의 진보에 따라 일상생활 주변에서 전자파가 인체에 미치는 영향과 안전노출 허용한계에 대한 관심이 커지고 있다. 비 흡수율( Specific Absorption Rate )은 일반적으로 전자파 흡수율로 정의되고 주로 100［KHz］에서 10［㎓］ 사이의 주파수 대역에서 전자파가 생체조직에 미치는 영향을 평가할 때 쓰이는 기본한계가 된다.(중략)

본 고는 최근 이슈가 되고 있는 어린이의 휴대전화 사용에 대해, 휴대전화기에서 복사되는 전자파 에너지가 성인과 달리 작용할 가능성이 있는지에 관한 연구 또는 보고 자료를 수집하여 다양한 각도에서 조사한 것이다. 공학적 관점에서 휴대전화 사용에 있어 어린이와 성인의 전자파 흡수율에 차이를 가져올 수 있는가에 관한 연구 결과를 기술하고 있으며, 각각 형태적 측면에서 성인과 어린이를 나타내는 각기 다른 크기의 머리 형태에서 전자파 흡수율의 차이가 있는지와 생체의 재료(재질) 측면에서 연령층에 따라 조직의 전기적 특성에 변화를 알아보았다. 그 다음 휴대전화기에 가장 가까이 위치하는 인체 머리의 성장과정 상의 변화를 살펴봄으로써 생물학적 측면에서 어린이가 성인에 비해 취약할 가능성이 있는지 검토하였다 그러나 이러한 가능성을 현재로서는 명확히 판단하기 어려우며, 원인 규명을 위한 추가 연구 및 다양한 연구 분야간 협력이 요구됨을 알 수 있었다.

It becomes important to analyze the effects of electromagnetic wave on human body, as various wireless equipments are widely used in daily life. SAR (specific absorption rate) is a parameter of the effects of electromagnetic wave on human body. However, it considers only human tissues, and it is difficult to evaluate the effects of electromagnetic wave when metal artifacts are inserted such as dental implants. This paper introduces a method to simulate SAR, and gets its simulated results. Simulated SAR of human head model with dental implants in 30 GHz 5th generation mobile communications (5G) frequency band is $2.50{\times}10^{-3}W/kg$ in maximum and $8.58{\times}10^{-7}W/kg$ in average. These values are absolutely below 1.6 W/kg Korean domestic SAR limit.

In this paper, we measured specific absorption rate (SAR) using characteristic variables such as flip angle, repetition time (TR) and echo time (TE) at magnetic resonance imaging. The subject was applied to same scan technique from body weight 10 kg to 90 kg, were measured for the average SAR and the peak SAR values according to the change of parameter. SAR with different body weight levels was not seen a significant change at TE but it increased in the larger flip angle and the shorter TR. SAR value was within the limits of human head acceptable standard and SNR in segmental body weights was not proportional to the increase of body weights. In conclusion, this study can be helpful for diagnosis by using appropriate parameters which obtained the various contrast and SNR.
