  • In this proposed study, observing and analyzing contrast enhanced abdominal CT images, we segmented the liver automatically. We computed the ratio of each gray value from the estimated gray value range. With the average value of mesh image, we distinguished the liver from the noise parts. We divided the region based on immersion simulation. The threshold value is determined from the mesh image which is generated from each gray value portion of the liver and is used in dividing the liver to the noise region. To get the outline of the liver, we generated template image which represents the lump of the liver, and subtracted it from the binary image. With the results we use the proposed algorithm using 8-connectivity instead of the present opening algorithm, to reduce the processing time. We computed the volume from the segmented organ size and presented a clinical demonstration with the animal experiment

  • In this study, we tried to improve the reproducibility of signal intensity by applying DOTS method. The study was conducted on 30 patients who had undergone hepatic screening because of poor reproducibility and decreased signal intensity. The images were acquired before and after injection of contrast media and then post-processed by DOTS methods. Signal intensity was compared and evaluated. The results showed that the signal intensity of the images was 183.3% ($1038.0{\pm}70.7$ before application, $2940.7{\pm}179.6$ after application) and 1118.4% ($444.1{\pm}92.4$, $5410.5{\pm}168.4$ after application). This is a significant improvement in the fact that the reproducibility of MRI) was changed by the DOTS method, which is a post-processing method.

  • The purpose of this study, was Let's examine the exposure dose at the time of cerebral blood flow CT scan of acute ischemic stroke patients. In particular, long-term high doses of radiation sensitive organs and we Measured using phantom and a glass dosimeter. Apply the existing protocol suggested by the manufacturer (fixed time delay technique) and the proposed new convergence protocol (bolus tracking technique), reporting to measure the dose, dose reduction was to prepare the way. Results up to 39.8% as compared to the existing protocols in a new suggested convergence protocol, a minimum of 5.8% was long-term dose is reduced. Test dose of $CDTI_{vol}$ and DLP values decreased 25%, respectively, were measured at less than recommended dose. Try checking the protocol set out in the existing based on the analysis result of the above, by applying the proposed new convergence protocol by reducing the dose would have to contribute to improved public health. It is believed to be research continues to find the optimum protocol in the other tests.

  • A ten-year-old, female Yorkshire terrier dog with intermittent vomiting, weight loss, polydipsia and depression was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Konkuk University. On the radiological survey, gas and fluid-filled gastric distention was detected. No contrast medium entraneed to the small bowel, in 60 minutes after contrast medium administration. And marked fluid accumulation in gastric body and thickening of the pyloric mucosa were found with ultrasonograph. So gastric obstruction by reason of pyloric stenosis was strongly suspected. At the surgery, hypertrophied mucosa was resected adequately, and Heineke-Mikulicz pyloroplasty was applied. Microscopically the symptom was characterized by gastric mucosa hyperplasia and mild diffuse Iymphoplasmocytic gastritis. So this condition was diagnosed as chronic hypertrophic pyloric gastropathy. Intermittent vomiting and mild depression were shown for 9 days after the operation. After that, the patient was recovered gradually. One month later, the patient had normal appetite and activity without complications.

  • Glioblastoma is the most common brain malignancies arising from glial cells. Early diagnosis and treatment plan establishment are important, and cancer is diagnosed mainly through T1CE imaging through injection of a contrast agent. However, the risk of injection of gadolinium-based contrast agents is increasing recently. Region segmentation that marks cancer regions in medical images plays a key role in CAD systems, and deep neural network models for synthesizing new images are also being studied. In this study, we propose a model that simultaneously learns the generation of T1CE images and segmentation of cancer regions. The performance of the proposed model is evaluated using similarity measurements including mean square error and peak signal-to-noise ratio, and shows average result values of 21 and 39 dB.

  • DSA는 해상능(解像能)에 있어서는 일반적(一船的)인 혈관(血管) 조영술(造影術)에 비해서 다소 못미치지만 소량(小量)의 조영제(造影劑)로도 혈관구조(血管構造)를 잘 관찰(觀察)할 수 있으며 큰 차이의 조직(組織)두께차를 적절히 수용(受容)할 수 있으며 필름의 소모도 적게 되었다. DSA는 경동맥검사(頸動脈檢査)에 가장 중요한 위치를 차지하며 많이 시행(施行)되고 있다. 혈관(血管)의 모양을 변화(變化) 시키는 여러 질환에서 혈관(血管)상태나 혈류(血流)의 변화(變化), 내경(內經)도 알수 있다. 최근에는 흉부(胸部)나 후두(喉頭) 등(等)에도 적용하여 일반검사(一般檢査)와 비교(比較)하여 좋은 결과(結果)를 얻고있다. 또 확대촬영(擴大撮影)이나 입체촬영(立體撮影)까지 응용(應用)하여 좋은 성적을 얻고 있다. DSA는 보고자 하는 혈관상(血管像)만을 단시간에 볼 수 있고 유연성(柔軟性)이 있고 비침습성(非侵襲性)(noninvasive)이며 간단한 검사방법(檢査方法)이라는 점 등(等)에서 매우 유용(有用)한 검사(檢査)라 하겠다.

  • 목적: 나노 산화철 입자 및 생고분자인 PCL(Polycarprolacton)로 표면 코팅한 T2 MR 조영제를 합성하고 동물 종양 모델을 이용하여 In vivo 특성을 조사하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: $FeC1_2$.$4H_2$O와 $FeC1_3$.$6H_2$O을 무게비를 1:2로 정량하여 첨가하고 NaOH 혹은 TMAOH로 pH를 조절한후 PCL를 첨가하여 magnetite가 생성되는 동시에 고분자로서 코팅을 한후 증류수로 여러번 씻어준다. TEM, SEM, DLS 및 IR spectroscopy와 SQUID등을 측정하여 최종 반응물의 입자크기, 자성, 코팅 상태등을 평가하였다. 최소의 입자크기를 형성하는데 필요한 실험 조건을 찾기 위해 반응온도, 코팅할 고분자의 함량, 교반속도별로 실험하여서 최적의 조건을 찾으려 하였다. 토끼의 간에 VX2 암종을 이식한 동물 모델을 이용하여 PCL로 표면 코팅된 나노자성체의 in vivo 영상 특성을 알아보았다.
