We uniformly coated Eu(III)- and Tb(III)-doped yttrium oxide onto the surface of $SiO_2$ spheres and then characterized them by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction crystallography and UV-Visible absorption. 2D and 3D photoluminescence image map profiles were reported for the core-shell type structure. Red emission peaks of Eu(III) were observed between 580 to 730 nm and assigned to $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_J$ (J = 0 - 4) transitions. The green emission peaks of Tb(III) between 450 and 650 nm were attributed to the $^5D_4{\rightarrow}^7F_J$ (J = 6, 5, 4, 3) transitions. For annealed samples, Eu(III) ions were embedded at a $C_2$ symmetry site in $Y_2O_3$, which was accompanied by an increase in luminescence intensity and redness, while Tb(III) was changed to Tb(IV), which resulted in no green emission.

흉부대동맥류는 좌측 쇄골하동맥에 가까이 위치해 있어서 흉부대동맥내치료를 시행할 때 좌측 쇄골하동맥의 폐색이 불가피한 경우가 많다. 좌측 쇄골하동맥 폐색의 안전성과 좌측 쇄골하동맥 재생술의 필요성에 대해 논란이 계속되고 있음에도 불구하고, 좌측 쇄골하동맥의 폐색후 뇌혈류역학적인 변화에 대한 기존의 체계적인 연구는 없었다. 저자들은 좌측 쇄골하동맥폐색을 동반한 흉부대동맥내치료의 대상이 되는 2명의 환자에서 치료 전후의 2차원 위상차 대조 자기공명영상을 시행하였다. 좌측 쇄골하동맥의 폐색 후 좌측 쇄골하도주가 발생하였으며, 이로 인한 뇌혈류의 소실을 양측 경동맥과 주된 부행혈류인 오른쪽 추골동맥이 적절하게 보상하였다. 전체 뇌혈류는 감소하지 않았으며 이는 임상적으로 뇌졸증이나 척수마비의 증상이 나타나지 않은 것과 잘 일치하였다. 2차원 위상차 대조 자기공명영상은 좌측 쇄골하동맥 폐색을 동반한 흉부대동맥내치료의 뇌혈류역학적인 평가와 좌측 쇄골하동맥 재생술이 필요한 환자의 선별에 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

Background: In veterinary medicine, previous studies regarding the diagnostic performance of shear wave elastography (SWE) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) are not consistent with each other. Moreover, there has been no study evaluating the relationship between symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA) concentration and renal shear wave velocity (SWV) using two-dimensional SWE (2D SWE) in dogs with CKD. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic capability of 2D SWE in dogs with CKD and to assess the relationship between renal SWV and SDMA concentration. Methods: Dogs with healthy kidneys and dogs with CKD underwent 2D SWE and SDMA assay. Renal stiffness was estimated as renal SWV in m/s. Results: SDMA concentration had a weak positive correlation with the left (r = 0.338, p = 0.022) and right renal SWV (r = 0.337, p = 0.044). Renal SWV was not significantly different between healthy kidney and CKD groups in the left (p = 0.085) and right (p = 0.171) kidneys. Conclusions: 2D SWE may could not distinguish between dogs with healthy kidney and dogs with early stage of CKD, but it would be useful for assessing the serial change of renal function in dogs.

Molecular nuclear cardiac imaging has included Tc-99m Annexin imaging to visualize myocardial apoptosis, but is now usually associated with gene therapy and cell-based therapy. Cardiac gene therapy was not successful so far but cardiac reporter gene imaging was made possible using HSV-TK (herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase) and F-18 FHBG (fluoro-hydroxymethylbutyl guanine) or I-124 FIAU (fluoro-deoxyiodo-arabino-furanosyluracil). Gene delivery was performed by needic injection with or without catheter guidance. Tk expression did not last longer than 2 weeks in myocardium. Cell-based therapy of ischemic heart or failing heart looks promising, but biodistribution and differentiation of transplanted cells are not known. Reporter genes can be transfected to the stem/progenitor cells and cells containing these genes can be transplanted to the recipients using catheter-based purging or injection. Repeated imaging should be available and if promoter are varied to let express reporter transgenes, cellular (trans)differentiation can be studied. NIS (sodium iodide symporter) or D2R receptor genes are promising in this aspect.

본 논문은 세 개의 카메라로부터 얻어진 영상에서 표면 깊이 정보를 재구성하여 얼굴의 3차원 모델을 생성하는 효율적인 방법을 제안한다. 논문에서는 Trinocular 영상을 사용하여 binocular 영상 사용 시 발생하는 폐색 영역 문제와 깊이 해상도 한계를 개선하였다. 또한, MPC_MBS (Matching Pixel Count Multiple Baseline Stereo) 유사도 측정 방법을 제안하여 영상 정합 시 발생하는 Boundary overreach 현상을 줄이고 정합의 정확도와 정밀도를 개선하였다. 이 방법은 정합 때 발생하는 중복 계산을 제거함으로써 계산 시간도 줄일 수 있다. 모델 생성 시에는 추출된 변위 정보를 2차원 보간에 의해 소수점 단위까지 확장하여 연속적인 표면 깊이 정보를 추출하였고, 이로부터 일정 간격의 초기 삼각형 매쉬 모델을 생성하였다. 또한 삼각형 매쉬 모델의 데이터 크기를 줄이기 위하여 사용자가 지정하는 오차 이내에서 같은 평면으로 근사화 되는 꼭지점을 병합하는 알고리듬을 제안하여 효율적인 얼굴 모델 생성이 이루어지도록 하였다.

The conventional machine vision system which has uniform rectangular grid requires tremendous amount of computation for processing and analysing an image especially in 2-D image transfermations such as scaling, rotation and 3-D reconvery problem typical in robot application environment. In this study, the imaging system with nonuiformly distributed image sensors simulating human visual system, referred to as Ploar Exponential Grid(PEG), is compared with the existing conventional uniform rectangular grid system in terms of image resolution and computational complexity. By mimicking the geometric structure of the PEG sensor cell, we obtained PEG-like images using computer simulation. With the images obtained from the simulation, image resolution of the two systems are compared and some basic image processing tasks such as image scaling and rotation are implemented based on the PEG sensor system to examine its performance. Furthermore Fourier transform of PEG image is described and implemented in image analysis point of view. Also, the range and heading-angle measurement errors usually encountered in 3-D coordinates recovery with stereo camera system are claculated based on the PEG sensor system and compared with those obtained from the uniform rectangular grid system. In fact, the PEC imaging system not only reduces the computational requirements but also has scale and rotational invariance property in Fourier spectrum. Hence the PEG system has more suitable image coordinate system for image scaling, rotation, and image recognition problem. The range and heading-angle measurement errors with PEG system are less than those of uniform rectangular rectangular grid system in practical measurement range.

Primary purpose of the system developed in this study is 3-D seismic data processing system for subsurface structure imaging and this system is developed in PC based on Linux for lower-cost computer. Basic data processing modules are originated from SU (Seismic Unix) which is widely used in 2-D seismic data processing and auxilious modules are developed for 3-D data processing. The system which is constructed by using these data processing modules is designed to GUI (Graphic User Interface) in order that one can easily control and for this purpose, GTK (Gimp Tool KiT) conventionally adapted in producing Linux application.

Purpose : To describe how a robust implementation of a radial 3D gradient-echo sequence with stack-of-stars sampling can be achieved, to review the imaging properties of radial acquisitions, and to share the experience from more than 5000 clinical patient scans. Materials and Methods: A radial stack-of-stars sequence was implemented and installed on 9 clinical MR systems operating at 1.5 and 3 Tesla. Protocols were designed for various applications in which motion artifacts frequently pose a problem with conventional Cartesian techniques. Radial scans were added to routine examinations without selection of specific patient cohorts. Results: Radial acquisitions show significantly lower sensitivity to motion and allow examinations during free breathing. Elimination of breath-holding reduces failure rates for non-compliant patients and enables imaging at higher resolution. Residual artifacts appear as streaks, which are easy to identify and rarely obscure diagnostic information. The improved robustness comes at the expense of longer scan durations, the requirement for fat suppression, and the nonexistence of a time-to-center value. Care needs to be taken during the configuration of receive coils. Conclusion: Routine clinical use of radial stack-of-stars sequences is feasible with current MR systems and may serve as substitute for conventional fat-suppressed T1-weighted protocols in applications where motion is likely to degrade the image quality.
