Variable message signs(VMS) in use are being displaying with the LED device as the luminous source, and it is a recent trend to be changed from the Lamp type to the Surface-Mount Devices(SMD) type. The LED device leads to get VMS display brightly and clearly, leading to have visibility and legibility better than the existing VMS. However, the lights which display off the road, the unnecessary energy, might have negative effect on ecosystem. This study developed the way of getting the lights be displayed only to drivers without the unnecessary energy and estimated the energy efficiency of the development by the optical testing. As a result, this study showed that the energy consumption of the developed display device appeared to decrease by about 36.1% compared to the existing device. Also the upward and downward angle of the lights changed from an angle of $24^{\circ}C$ to $0^{\circ}C$and from an angle of $-24^{\circ}C$ to $-11^{\circ}C$, respectively. Therefore, it anticipates that the developed device would benefit highway safety due to an improvement in visibility and legibility compared to the existing VMS and the energy consumption would be less lower than the existing VMS.

Purpose This study aimed to determine the incremental value of using a structured report (SR) for US examinations of the pediatric appendix. Materials and Methods Between January 2009 and June 2016, 1150 pediatric patients with suspected appendicitis who underwent US examinations of the appendix were included retrospectively. In November 2012, we developed a five-point scale SR for appendix US examinations. The patients were divided into two groups according to the form of the US report: free-text or SR. The primary clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups, including the rate of CT imaging following US examinations, the negative appendectomy rate (NAR), and the appendiceal perforation rate (PR). Results In total, 550 patients were included in the free-text group and 600 patients in the SR group. The rate of additional CT examinations decreased by 5.3% in the SR group (8.2%, p = 0.003), and the NAR decreased by 8.4% in the SR group (7.8%, p = 0.028). There was no statistical difference in the appendiceal PR (37.6% vs. 48.0%, p = 0.078). Conclusion The use of an SR to evaluate US examinations for suspected pediatric appendicitis results in lower CT use and fewer negative appendectomies without an increase in appendiceal PR.

The purpose of this study was to determine the legibility distance for traffic road sign and traffic sign, fixation duration and number of fixation during the time of recognition of traffic road signs under different vision conditions. This experiment was conducted on a closed-road circuit which has realistic driving road and environment Each participant drove the real vehicle for the experiment and specially built traffic road sign for the experiment and traffic road signs on the side of closed-road circuit were used. Different vision conditions were simulated using spectacle lenses to reach visual acuity 1.0 and 0.8 and it was 1.2 without spectacles and each participant tested under 3 vision conditions.. The result of this study demonstrated that there was a significant difference on legibility distance between visual acuity of 1.2 and 0.8 and there were also significant difference on fixation duration and number of fixations with smaller traffic signs. This study demonstrated the importance of vision correction for driving at night-time, also showed there would be difference on legibility distance and efficiency of eye movement such as fixation duration and number of fixation despite of satisfied visual acuity for driver's license requirement.

In the PACS system, the radiology image(X-ray) and its report are saved as separated parts. The exchange of the radiology image between clinics that installed this system are easily achieved by the DICOM standardization. But it is difficult to exchange the radiology report between clinics because a solution of PACS system is different according to manufacturers. The radiology report should be unified the vocabulary and the type of code for effective sharing and exchanging, and also the radiology image and its report should be integrated for the accurate analysis. In this paper, we propose the sharing system of medical information based on HL7-CDA, it defines the templates and converts the structured documents. For this purpose, we design the XML schema of the radiology report and turn the DICOM files into defined schema. The HL7-CDA documents based on XML is easily displayed on web browser and can help the diagnosis by inserting the radiology image.

The purpose of this study verify to the effect of applying the X-ray screening ability rating for security screening persons in Incheon International Airport. Data collected through a evaluation score of 1,034 security screening persons in Incheon International Airport. Data analysis performed using paired sample t-test. The research results found that it was a statistically significant difference pre-test and post-test applying the X-ray screening ability rating. In this article, we asserts that the X-ray screening ability rating is effective in improving the X-ray screening ability of security screening persons. This paper contribute to the academic expansion of motivation theory and self-determination theory. This study is valuable as a preemptive empirical research that provides practical implications about the application of X-ray screening ability rating for security screening persons.

The purpose of this study was to summarize the results of a survey for physicians with specialties other than radiology about imaging studies of patients referred from other institutions. The survey was promoted through individual contacts or social network service and physicians who voluntarily responded to the survey were the subjects of the study. The questionnaire consisted of 11 questions about basic information and referrals about medical imaging. A total of 160 physicians from 30 specialties participated in the survey and 95.6% of the respondents worked in tertiary care center or general hospital. Patients were frequently referred with outside medical images. The most frequently referred imaging modalities were computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. However, radiological reports from outside institutions were rarely referred. Most physicians thought that reinterpretation for outside imaging is necessary to acquire a secondary opinion. In conclusion, considering that outside radiological reports are frequently missing and there are high demands on reinterpretation for outside imaging, guidelines for referral of radiological reports with medical imaging, basic elements of radiological reports, and reinterpretation need to be developed.

최근 4세대(4G) 통신망으로의 전환의 가속화와 스마트 모바일 기기의 확산으로 인하여 무선 통신망에서 데이터 트래픽이 급증하고 있다. 이러한 급증하는 데이터 트래픽을 분산시키기 위하여 2개의 주파수 밴드를 사용하는 멀티 캐리어 기술이 선보이고 있다. 방송 디스크는 서버가 데이터베이스에 저장된 모든 데이터를 연속적으로 다수의 모바일 클라이언트에게 방송하고, 클라이언트는 방송 채널을 감시하여 원하는 데이터가 방송될 경우 방송 채널로부터 데이터를 수신하는 통신 구조이다. 이런 관점에서 방송 채널은 클라이언트가 데이터를 액세스할 수 있는 디스크의 역할을 담당한다. 본 논문에서는 무선 통신망이 멀티 캐리어를 지원할 경우, 클라이언트에서 실행되는 읽기 전용 트랜잭션의 정확성을 보장하기 위한 동시성 제어 기법(Dual-Channel based Concurrency Control: DCC)을 제안한다. 기존에 동시성 제어 기법들은 단일 방송채널에서 트랜잭션의 철회률을 줄이기 위하여 추가적인 제어 정보들을 방송하거나 방송 데이터의 타임스탬프 필드를 이용하고 있다. 클라이언트에서 실행되는 트랜잭션은 단일 방송 사이클이 아니라 여러 방송 사이클에 걸쳐서 실행된다. 이러한 방송 디스크 환경의 특징은 클라이언트 트랜잭션이 디스크에서 방송 인덱스를 판독하여 방송 프로그램 상에서 트랜잭션에 필요한 데이터가 방송 될 때까지 기다리게 된다. 이와는 달리 DCC는 주력 망과 보조 망에서 방송되는 방송 프로그램의 순서를 서로 다르게 하여 데이터 판독에 필요한 대기 시간을 줄일 수 있다. 보조망의 방송 프로그램의 순서는 주력망의 방송 프로그램 순서의 역순서로 방송함으로써 보조 망 또는 주력 망에서 실행되고 있는 트랜잭션이 다른 방송 채널의 방송 인덱스를 판독하지 않아도 방송 프로그램 순서를 예측할 수가 있다. 그 결과, DCC는 방송 디스크의 데이터 판독에 요구되는 대기시간을 줄여 읽기 전용 트랜잭션의 철회률을 줄일 수 있다는 장점을 갖는다.

조직학적으로 유용성이 입증된 산탈회법을 이용한 인접면 비교적 초기 치아 우식의 병소를 형성하여 진단율을 조사하였다. 산 용액을 이용하여 20개 인접면 치아우식을 20개 소구치에 형성하였고, 37개 인접면 치아우식을 30개 대구치에 형성하였다. 건전한 소구치 20개, 대구치 30개를 포함하여 총 96개 치아를 4개씩 나누어 24개의 블록을 형성하였고, 각각 2개 블록의 교합면을 교합시켜서, 교익촬영을 하였다. 촬영 결과를 36명의 치과의사들이인접면 치아우식의 유무를 기록하고, 동시에 및 ROC 분석을 위한 5 개 범주의 판독 기준으로 판독하여 기록하였다. 인접면 치아우식증 유, 무만으로 판독한 결과 진단의 sensitivity는 0.71, specificity는 0.78 이였다. ROC 분석 한 결과의 곡선도표 아래부분의 평균 면적은 약 0.806 이였다. 치아우식증 유무만으로 진단한 결과는 특정한 sensitivity와 specificity 만을 나타내지만, ROC 분석 결과는 주관적 진단 기준과 구별되는 고유의 진단 능력을 표시하는 1-specificity(False Positive)의 변화에 따른 sensitivity(True Positive)의 변화를 연속적으로 나타내어 주었다.
