A 10 months old, male Poongsan dog was referred with a history of right forelimb lameness due to hit by a car a few hours before presentation. On the physical examination, the dog showed pale mucous membrane, respiration distress, and skin abrasions. The main laboratory finding was leukocytosis, while hematocrit was normal. Abdominal radiography revealed the loss of abdominal serosal detail, which was diagnosed as peritoneal hemorrhage on ultrasonography (US) and aspiration. On computed tomography (CT), hepatic and splenic injuries were seen characterized by the discontinuity of the capsule with irregular margin and lower density lesions than parenchyma. No contrast enhancing area were shown in the laceration lesion. The accessory spleen was incidentally found by US and CT. In this case, acute intra-abdominal hemorrhage from splenic and hepatic laceration was diagnosed using CT.

Among 64 patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent coronary angiogrphy, 7 patients (10.9%) showed normal coronary artery. Six patients were men and 1 patient was female. The mean age of patients were $31.1{\pm}3.9$ years. Among the risk factors of coronary heart disease, smoking was most probable factor in patients with acute myocardial infarction with normal coronary angiography. $^{99m}Tc$-MIBI heart SPECT performed 5 of 7 patients and showed that it could be used in diagnosis, localization, extent of infarct area in patients with acute myocardial infarction with normal coronary angiograpy. But follow up $^{99m}Tc$-MIBI heart SPECT study will be needed to define the ability of myocardial viability in this patients.

Using starch gel electrophoresis, ten isozyme loci were examined in nine populations of Euphorbia ebracteolata in Korea. Populations of E. ebracteolata tend to have higher within-population levels of genetic variation (A = 2.2, P = 61.1, He = 0.165) along with low levels of genetic differentiation ($F_{ST}$ = 0.075) compared to previously reported Euphorbia species. The relatively high genetic variation in E. ebracteolata may be due to its long-lived regional distribution and to the outcrossed nature of the species. Low levels of genetic differentiation and the absence of unique alleles in E. ebracteolata populations suggest that Korean populations diverged recently. This study does not support the recognition of var. coreana and for. magna as separate taxa, and suggests that they should be combined with E. ebracteolata.

Magnetite nanoparticles, which have been extensively used in many fields, were encapsulated with a natural polymer, chitosan, to improve their biocompatibility. We have synthesized magnetite $(Fe_3C_4)$ nanoparticles using chemical coprecipitation technique with sodium oleate as surfactant. Nanoparticle size can be varied from 1.2 to 7.4nm by controlling the sodium oleate concentration. Magnetite phase nanoparticles could be observed from X-ray diffraction. Magnetic colloid suspensions containing particles with sodium oleate and chitosan have been prepared. High magnetic property chitosan-microsphere particles were prepared from oleate-coated magnetite suspension using spray method. The surftce, and tile morphology of the magnetic chitosan microsphere particles were characterized using optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. Magnetic hysteresis measurement were performed using a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer at room temperature to investigate the magnetic properties of the chitosan microspheres including magnetite nanoparticles. The SQUID measurements revealed superparamagnetism of nanoparticles.

국내 보급되고 있는 곡물건조기는 열풍형 순환식 곡물건조기가 주종을 이루고 있는데, 이건조기의 경우 곡물이 순환하면서 열풍공급과 템퍼링과정을 반복하면서 건조가 이루어지는 대류열전달 방식을 채택하고 있다. 대류열전달 방식은 복사열전달 방식에 비해 열전달률이 낮기 때문에 건조속도와 열효율이 떨어지며, 건조시 미질 향상과 건조비용 절감에 한계가 있어 왔다. 따라서 건조에너지의 절감과 동시에 고품질 쌀 생산을 할 수 있는 새로운 형식의 곡물건조기술을 확립하고자 원적외선 곡물건조기를 개발하였다. 원적외선은 0.56~l,000$\mu\textrm{m}$의 전자파로서 세라믹 도료표면에 열을 가하면 원적외선 파장대의 강한 에너지를 얻을 수 있다. 이같은 원적외선 에너지를 농산물에 조사시키면 열이 침투하게되고 동시에 농산물의 내부온도가 상승함에 따라 활발한 분자운동을 하면서 수분을 표면으로 이동시키기 때문에 열풍건조방법에 비해 열전달효율이 높고, 농산물을 보다 균일하게 건조가 가능하므로 좋은 품질의 쌀을 생산할 수 있는 특징을 가지고 있다. 시작기는 1회 3,800kg을 건조할 수 있도록 설계하였고, 템퍼링실, 건조실, 열풍실, 승강기 등으로 구성되었다. 원적외선 방사체의 형태는 실린더형이고, 방사체가 설치된 열풍실 위쪽은 타공망, 아래쪽은 방사량을 높이기 위하여 일부 개방된 구조로 제작하였다. 본 연구에서 구명된 원적외선 방사체 길이와 조사거리는 각각 1,470mm, 125mm가 적절한 것으로 나타났다. 시작기의 성능시험을 열풍건조기(대비구)와 비교한 결과 소음은 대비구에서의 94.12dB보다 13% 가량 낮게 나타났고, 건조온도를 45$^{\circ}C$로 설정하고 벼를 건조했을 때 건감률 0.58%,wb로 대비구의 0.47%,wb 보다 23% 높았고, 건조소요에너지도 470kcal/kg - water로 2%의 절감되었다. 또한 건조한 벼를 도정하여 색, 냄새, 윤기, 찰기 등에 대한 관능검사결과는 원적외선 건조방법이 종합기호도가 6.37으로 열풍건조방법 6.13보다 우수한 평가를 받았다. 건조비용은 시작기의 구입가격이 20% 비싸기 때문에 시간당 고정비가 높았으나, 건조성능이 우수하여 건조비용이 69,350원/톤으로 대비구보다 14% 절감되는 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, We has proposed two DGS(Defected Ground Structure) resonators and designed the low-pass filter using the proposed DGS types. This structure consists of two rectangular slots, a ‘II type’ slot on the ground plane, and the stub at the transmission line. It has strong advantages that can vary the return loss at the passband freely and also can easily tune the attenuation pole frequency at the stopband. For enhancing the poor skirt property at the cutoff frequency of the Single Stub ‘II Type’ DGS cell, we have obtained the steep slope attenuation characteristic by combining the rectangular slot on both sides of the DGS. This type of the LPF with the proposed structure can be made more smaller than the existing filters and be used to find the various applications for eliminating the hamonics and spurious mode at WLL and the 2.4 GHz ISM band systems.

Advances in wireless communication and hardware technology have made it possible to manufacture high-performance tiny sensor nodes. More recently, the availability of inexpensive CMOS cameras that are able to capture multimedia data from the environment has fostered the development of Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs). WMSN with the CMOS imaging sensor which is cheaper and consumes lower power than the CCD will not only enhance existing sensor network but also enable several new application such as multimedia surveillance sensor network, multimedia environment monitoring. This paper presents the design of a multimedia sensor network with the image sensor mote developed by us using the CMOS. Given new multimeida sensor network, the new image collecting protocol was tested and analyzed.

In this paper, we propose an automatic extraction algorithm of region of interest(ROI) based on medical x-ray images. The proposed algorithm uses segmentation, feature extraction, and reference image matching to detect lesion sites in the input image. The extracted region is searched for matching lesion images in the reference DB, and the matched results are automatically extracted using the Kalman filter based fitness feedback. The proposed algorithm is extracts the contour of the left hand image for extract growth plate based on the left x-ray input image. It creates a candidate region using multi scale Hessian-matrix based sessionization. As a result, the proposed algorithm was able to split rapidly in 0.02 seconds during the ROI segmentation phase, also when extracting ROI based on segmented image 0.53, the reinforcement phase was able to perform very accurate image segmentation in 0.49 seconds.

In this paper, a multicast mechanism is proposed for intermittently disconnected networks where the nodes move forward in formation or within a limited area. The proposed scheme extends the well-known tree-based multicast routing mechanism called MAODV by modifying the tree construction and data delivery scheme. Especially, an algorithm is introduced which determines the flooding hop count k estimating the degree of the movement of children in the tree. The performance evaluation was done by the simulation and the proposed scheme was compared with MAODV and two multicast routing schemes for DTN (Disruption Tolerant Network) including the Epidemic routing and ST-multicast. The evaluation results show that our scheme improves the original MAODV from the aspect of tree reconstruction events and message delivery ratio. Compared with the Epidemic routing scheme, our scheme achieves 85% message delivery ratio with less than 50% message delivery overhead.
