The use of diagnostic radiation in medical institutions is rapidly increasing. Accordingly, the collective effective dose is on the rise every year. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the radiation exposure of the person undergoing the radiation examination as low as reasonably achievable. And we must establish a legal system to perform the safe management of radiation for diagnosis efficiently. In this way, I went over the problems of the Act and Subordinate Statutes regarding radiation safety management for diagnosis. As a result, the main contents are as follows. First, in the 「Medical Service Act」, there is no basis for the Safety Inspection Institute of Radiation and Radiation Exposure Measuring Institutes. And there are no provisions concerning delegation of administrative disposition. Therefore, it is necessary to secure legal justification by providing the basis for the Safety Inspection Institute of Radiation along with Radiation Exposure Measuring Institutes and the basis for administrative dispositions against these institutions in the 「Medical Service Act」. Second, the 「Rules on the Installation and Operation of Special Medical Equipment 」 should be integrated with the 「Rules on the Safety Management of Radiation Generators for Diagnostics」 to unify administrative procedures such as reporting for radiation special medical equipment for diagnosis. Third, in the case of violating the diagnostic radiation safety management standards in the 「Rules on the Safety Management of Radiation Generators for Diagnostics」, it is necessary to supplement the insufficient sanctions such as administrative disposition. Fourth, regulating diagnostic radiation and therapeutic radiation used in medical institutions with the dual legal system of the 「Medical Act」 and the 「Nuclear Safety Act」 is not efficient in the safety management of diagnostic radiation. Therefore, it is necessary to uniformly regulate diagnostic radiation and all medical radiation, including therapeutic radiation and nuclear medicine, in the 「Medical Service Act」 system.

In order to examine how Radiological Technologists perceive the oriental doctor's use of Medical Imaging Equipment, surveys were conducted for the members of the Korean Radiological Technologists Association. The total number of respondents were 515 and 481, with 34 insincere responses removed caused of nonvalidated answer. The results of the analysis are as follows. Although there were no statistical significance in the difference in perception by location of residence, work place, and educational background, respondents with higher education showed a tendency to agree on the use of comprehensive medical imaging equipment, but tended to oppose the use of special medical imaging equipment. Differences in perception by gender showed a greater negative perception toward the oriental doctor's use of medical imaging equipment by women than men. In particular, women showed more negative tendency for oriental doctor's use of special medical imaging equipment such as MRI, CT, and ultrasound equipment compared to men, and this was statistically significant. The difference in perception by age showed that the oriental doctor's use of medical imaging equipment was negative in the 20~30s, neutral in the 40~50s, and positive in the 60s, which were statistically significant. The difference in perception by work experience showed that the longer the work experience was, the more positive it was toward oriental doctor's use of medical imaging equipment. Specifically, the most favorable tendency was found with work experience of more than 30 years, which was statistically significant. The results of this study revealed the Radiological Technologists' perceptions on the oriental doctor's use of Medical Imaging Equipment and this can contribute to the direction of public health promotion in the future.

The quality control is needed to ensure the accuracy of medical information and achieved by evaluating the performance of and maintaining the system and practicing various measurements and evaluations. The Korean Institute for Accreditation of Medical Image, therefore, have held educational program for quality control of special medical equipments. The major of programs participants, however, are radiology specialists with only small number of radiological technologists from some hospitals, furthermore, the follow-up education and the share of information between participants and non-participants are insufficient in general, thus, the knowledge level of radiological technologists, regardless of their participation, is relatively low. This study carried out the questionnaire research for the 500 radiological technologists registered in Korean Society of MRI Technology, on the basis of 2008, and performed analysis for five months from May to Oct., 2008. The questionnaires were delivered by post to each radiological technologists and the response rate was 36%(n=180). The results of this revealed that the 86.7% of respondents felt the necessity of inspection on quality management, while only the 27.8% completed the educational program for manager of special medical equipment. and only the half(53.9%) had the knowledge about inspection on quality management. The completion of educational program had no correlations with sex, age, size of occupying hospital, the number of radiological technologists in occupying site and MRI laboratory, career year of general radiologist and in MRI laboratory, and the presence of biomedical engineering department in occupying hospital. The 78.0% of participants at the educational program for quality management held by the Korean Institute for Accreditation of Medical Image had the knowledge about inspection on quality management(p<.05) whereas the 43.9% of the hospitals held such program and the 54.4% of radiological technologists from those hospitals had related knowledge, which indicated that such programs held by hospitals had not effects on the knowledge level of radiological technologists. This indicates also that the contents, methods, and other conditional factors of educational programs are important for the outcome of them.

의료사고 증대와 비효율적 업무환경의 문제를 개선하기 위해 의료분야에서는 광범위한 RFID/USN기술의 적용을 고려하고 있다. RFID수동형 태그는 수혈 안정성 향상, 수술 오류 감소 및 수술실 내 환자 위치 확인, 투약 사고 방지, 환자 확인, 소모품 관리 등에 사용되며, 능동형 태그는 의사, 환자, 이동성 장비의 실시간 위치 추적 등에 사용된다. 하지만 의료기기 전파간섭, 보안 및 표준화, 특수환경에서 인식률 저하, 단기 투자비용 증대 등의 문제로 대부분의 적용 사례가 시범서비스 형태에 머무르며 활성화되지 못하고 있다. 본고에서는 의료진 및 환자관리, 자산관리, 의약품관리, 혈액관리 분야의 적용 사례 분석, 문제점 및 활성화 방안에 관하여 알아본다.

The purpose of this study is to provide preliminary data for political measures to minimize the variations by understanding the regional variations and trends of hospital services for heart diseases, and analyzing the factors that could occur any variations. The various data collected from nation-wide inpatient services conducted separately by small region show that there have been some differences in income level, supply of medical resources, standardized rate of hospitalization by sex and age, health level in the residence, and the length of stay per head. Then it indicated that the number of special medical equipment per 10,000 people and the rate of vigorous physical activity have the highest influence over the regional variations in using hospital services. On the other hand, the number of sick-beds per 10,000 people, the number of special medical equipment, and the present smoking rate have significant degree of influence on the length of stay per head. Thus, it is imperative for the authorities to set aside health promoting policies and to distribute the medical resources equitably throughout the country and to enhance the accessibility of local residents to the health care services.

환자 진료 의뢰 과정은1차 진료기관에서 3차 진료기관으로 환자 진료를 의뢰하고 3차 진료기관에서 검사, 처방, 입원 등의 진료행위를 하고 환자가 3차 병원을 나갈 때 퇴원요약정보를 1차 진료기관으로 다시 보내준다. 이러한 퇴원 요약 시스템은 병원간 환자 정보의 공유를 통해서 환자의 회복과 질 높은 의료 서비스를 제공할 수 있게 한다. 방사선과 정보가 다른 퇴원 요약 정보와 함께 제공된다면 지속적이고 일관된 의료 서비스의 제공에 도움이 된다. 또한 방사선과의 경우 3차 진료기관에서 이미지를 획득할 수 없는 경우, 이미지 획득 장비를 갖춘 1차 진료기관으로 진료 의뢰를 해야 하는 특수한 상황도 발생하는데, 이를 역진료의뢰라고 한다. 우리는 이러한 방사선과의 특성을 함께 고려한 방사선과 정보를 지원하는 퇴원정보요약시스템을 제안한다.

This study aims to provide an important base resource for the effective medical supply system construction by figuring out the characteristics and changes of admission medical use of gastritis in 160 middle treatment areas classified by 2008 patient examination resources, and by figuring out factors affecting on changes. As a result, in terms of admission rate according to sex and age standardization per small area, there were differences as EQ was 15.1 and CV was 0.4. Top 10 variations were mainly in rural areas. It showed significant positive relations between admission and the number of bed, doctor and special medical equipment per 10,000 population. It is recommended that the government set a priority in the management of regional bed supply and the distribution of efficient medical resources.
