In this paper, the Finite-Difference Time-Domain(FDTD) modeling method of the Korean human head is introduced to calculate electromagnetic energy absorption for the human head by mobile phones. After MRI scanning data is obtained, 2 dimensional(2D) segmentation is done from the 2D MRI image data by the semi-automatic method. Then, 3D dense segmentation data with $1mm\times1mm\times1mm$ is constructed from the 2D segmentation data. Using the 3D segmentation data, coarse FDTD models of human head that is tilted arbitrarily to model the condition of tilted usage of mobile phone.

본 논문에서는 DLR(German Aerospace Center)에서 운영하는 TerraSAR-X를 이용하여 2009년 1월 19일 18:28 (Local time) 에 서해 대부도/제부도 및 대부도 남쪽 해안을 촬영한 stripmap mode (Dual-Pol: HH, VV) 화상을 취득하여 향후 고해상도 X-밴드 화상의 활용 방안 및 효용성에 대해 검토해 보았다. 함께 취득된 현장자료와의 비교를 통하여 2010 년에 발사될 예정인 아리랑 5 호의 활용방안을 찾고자 한다. 여기서는, 연안에 설치된 양식시설, 소형 선박 그리고 코너리플렉터에 대해서 해석을 수행하였다. 김 양식시설의 경우, 구조와 설치 각도에 따라 다른 후방산란특성을 보였으며, 같은 시설에 대해서도 HH 편파의 후방산란계수가 VV 보다 2.6 dB 높게 나타났다. 그 이유는 김 양식시설이 TeraSAR-X의 전파전파 방향과 수직하게 되어 후방 산란이 많이 일어나는 반면에, B 지역에 설치된 김 양식시설은 TeraSAR-X의 전파전파방향과 약 45 도 비스듬하게 설치되어 있어, 상대적으로 낮은 후방산란계수를 나타내기 때문이다. 또한 한 변의 길이가 각각 1 m, 0.6 m 인 사각면 삼각 수동 전파반사기 두 개를 제부도 북쪽의 갯벌에 설치하여 TerraSAR-X 의 화상에 나타난 후방산란특성을 분석하였다. TerraSAR-X 의 화상이 X-밴드를 사용하고, 높은 해상도로 인해 power spill이 넓게 분포하는 것을 볼 수 있다.

최근 CCTV 사용이 보편화되면서 방범 목적으로 서비스 시설이나 공공시설에 설치되는 CCTV의 수가 급격하게 증가하고 있다. 그에 따라 CCTV를 감시하는 노동력이 부족해지는 문제가 발생하여 이를 대체하기 위해 카메라 영상을 통하여 한번 인식한 사람을 다른 시간이나 장소에서 촬영된 영상에서 다시 인식하는 사람 재인식 기술이 주목받고 있다. 또한, 이러한 사람 재인식 기술은 보안 분야뿐만 아니라 영화나 드라마와 같은 영상 컨텐츠에 적용되어 불법 복제물을 찾는 일에 사용될 수도 있다. 기존의 사람 재인식에는 이미지의 유사도를 계산하는 방법이 사용되었지만, 조명이나 카메라 각도가 달라지면 성능이 급격하게 떨어지는 문제가 있었다. 최근에는 딥러닝 기술이 발달하면서 전반적인 영상처리 분야의 성능이 향상되었고, 사람 재인식 분야 역시 딥러닝을 활용하면서 성능이 향상되었다. 하지만 딥러닝을 활용한 방법의 경우 보통 두 개의 이미지를 입력으로 사용하여 같은지 다른지를 판단하게 되므로 각 이미지의 공통점이나 차이점을 동시에 고려하기는 어려운 점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 점을 해결하기 위해 세 개의 사람 이미지를 입력으로 사용하여 특징을 추출하고, 특징 맵을 재구성하여 각 이미지의 차이점과 공통점을 동시에 고려하며 학습할 수 있는 모델을 제안한다.

The urinalysis, which is universally accessible to the general public, has disadvantages of being less objective using sight and purchasing a separate portable urinalysis machine. However, due to the high penetration rate and performance improvement of smartphone created by the development of mobile communication technology, research on urinalysis services using smartphone has been conducted. In this paper, a new urinalysis screening application based on smartphone was developed by supplementing the limitations of the previously studied urinalysis services. The key technology of the application is urinalysis recognition algorithm and urinalysis pad color determination algorithm through image-processing and contour detection. In order to confirm the performance of the developed application, urinalysis strip was photographed and analyzed from various backgrounds and angles.

Image reconstruction is one of the most important processes in CT (Computed tomography) technology. For fast scanning and low dose to the objects, iterative reconstruction is becoming more and more important. In the implementation of iterative reconstruction, projection and backprojection processes are considered to be indispensable parts. However, many approaches for projection and backprojection may result severe image artifacts due to their discrete characteristics and affects the reconstructed image quality. Thus, new approaches for projection and backprojection are highly demanded these days. In this paper, distance-driven approach was evaluated and compared with other conventional methods. The numerical simulator was developed to make the phantoms, and projection and backprojection images were compared using these approaches. As a result, it turned out that there are less artifacts during projection and backprojection in parallel and fan beam geometry.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of a stereolithographic surgical guide that was made with information from intraoral digital impressions and cone beam CT (CBCT). Materials and methods: Six sets of resin maxilla and mandible models with missing teeth were used in this study. Intraoral digital impressions were made. The virtual models provided by these intraoral digital impressions and by the CBCT scan images of the resin models were used to create a surgical guide. Implant surgery was performed on the resin models using the surgical guide. After implant placement, the models were subjected to another CBCT scan to compare the planned and actual implant positions. Deviations in position, depth and axis between the planned and actual positions were measured for each implant. Results: The mean deviation of the insertion point and angulation were 0.28 mm and $0.26^{\circ}$, apex point were 0.11 mm and 0.14 mm respectively. The implants were situated at a mean of 0.44 mm coronal to the planned vertical position. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that stereolithographic surgical guides created without the use of impressions and stone models show promising accuracy in implant placement.

Objective: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the use of Head Posture Aligner (HPA) during cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan in generation of frontal cephalograms using 3D CBCT images. Methods: CBCT scans and frontal cephalograms were made in 30 adult individuals. While a couple of CBCT scan was made for one subject, one was made with conventional method, without use of HPA, the other was acquired with the use of HPA. After creation of virtual frontal cephalogram from each 3D CBCT image, it was traced and compared with the tracing of real frontal cephalogram. Results: In the comparison of the measurements, the virtual cephalograms with the use of HPA did not show statistically significant differences with the real cephalograms whereas the virtual cephalograms without the use of HPA presented significant differences with real cephalograms in many measurements. In the correlation analysis with the measurements of the real cephalograms, the virtual cephalograms with the use of HPA showed higher correlations in all measurements than the virtual cephalograms without the use of HPA. Conclusions: Measurements from CBCT-generated cephalograms become similar to those from real cephalograms with the use of HPA during CBCT scan. Thus, the use of HPA is suggested during the CBCT scan in order to construct accurate virtual frontal cephalograms using 3D CBCT images.

Purpose: Accurate clinical evaluation of the alignment of the calcaneus relative to the tibia in the coronal plane is essential in the evaluation and treatment of hindfoot pathologic condition. Previously described standard anteroposterior, lateral, and oblique radiographic methods of the foot or ankle do not demonstrate alignment of the tibia relation to the calcaneus in the coronal plane. The purpose of this study was to introduce hindfoot coronal alignment view. Material : 1) Both feet were imaged simultaneously on an elevated, radiolucent foot stand equipment. 2) Both feet stood on a radiolucent platform with equal weight on both feet. 3) Both feet are located foot axis longitudinal perpendicular to the platform. 4) Silhouette tracing around both feet are made, and line is then drawn to bisect the silhouette of the second toe and the outline of the heel. 5) The x-ray beam is angled down approximately $15^{\circ} to $20^{\circ} Result : 1) This image described tibial axis and medial, lateral tuberosity of calcaneus. 2) Calcaneus do not rotated. 3) The view is showed by talotibial joint space. Conclusion: Although computed tomographic and magnetic resonance imaging techniques are capable of demonstrating coronal hindfoot alignment, they lack usefulness in most clinical situations because the foot is imaged in a non-weight bearing position. But hindfoot coronal alignment view is obtained for evaluating position changing of inversion, eversion of the hindfoot and varus, valgus deformity of calcaneus.

Purpose : A new fiduciary plate and orientation marker have been devised to assist the quality assurance (QA) procedures for port films in radiation therapy department. The plate is used in conjunction with the film/cassette combination during weekly QA procedures, at Seoul National University Hospital (SNUH), in order to verify treatment fields in high radiation therapy. Materials and Methods : A new fiduciary plate was fabricated using an acrylic plate, cerrobend, standard blocking tray and mercury. The acrylic plate had the dimension of $1{\times}25{\times}25$ cm, with two fiduciary markers. The plate was rigidly attached onto the standard blocking tray, thus making it easier to set the fiduciary plate to the center on the radiation field on the linear accelerator. The plate had two 2-mm vertical and horizontal lines, with the minor scales in 2-cm steps. The orientation marker was a small mercury filled disk, which was inserted into the plate. Results : The geometrical structure of the lines in the plate makes it easier to correlate two different images between the simulation and port films. The marker clearly indicated the orientation of the film, for example, the anterior, posterior, left, right and various oblique orientations, without the placement of a conventional orientation marker. Also, the new orientation marker could easily be applied to the simulator by placing the small orientation marker onto the image intensifier or in front of the film/cassette holder. Conclusions : The new fiduciary plate appears to be useful in verifying the treatment fields, and the new orientation marker makes the film orientation simple, which is expected to lower the block fabrication errors.
