Purpose : Three-dimensional radiation dosimetry using magnetic resonance imaging of polymer gel was recently introduced. This dosimetry system is based on radiation induced chain polymerization of acrylic monomers in a muscle equivalent gel and provide accurate 3 dimensional dose distribution. We planned this study to evaluate the clinical value of this 3-dimensional dosimetry. Materials and Methods: The polymer gel poured into a cylindrical glass flask and a spherical glass flask. The cylindrical test tubes were for dose response evaluation and the spherical flasks, which is comparable to the human head, were for isodose curves. T2 maps from MR images were calculated using software, IDL. Dose distributions have been displayed for dosimetry. The same spherical flask of gel and the same irradiation technique was used for film and TLD dosimetry and compared with each other. Results : The R2 of the gel respond linearly with radiation doses in the range of 2 to 15 Gy. The repeated dosimetry of spherical gel showed the same isodose curves. These isodose curves were identical to dose distributions from treatment planning system especially high dose range. In addition, the gel dosimetry system showed comparable or superior results with the film and TLD dosimetry. Conclusion : The 3-dimensional dosimetry for conformal radiation therapy using MRI of polymer gal showed stable and accurate results. Although more studies are needed for convenient clinical application, it appears to be a useful tool for conformal radiation therapy.

Multi-view video system provides both realistic 3D feelings and free-view navigation. But it is hard to transmit too huge data, so we send only two or three view images and generate intermediate view image using depth information. In this paper, we propose high quality multi-view image generation method from stereoscopic images. Since the stereo matching method does not provide accurate disparity values for all the pixels, especially at the occlusion area, we propose an occlusion handling method using the background pixels at first. We also apply a joint bilateral filtering to enhance the disparity map at the object boundary since it can affect the quality of synthesized images significantly. Finally, we can generate virtual view images at intermediate view positions using confidence map to reduce bad pixel and hole's error. Experimental results show the proposed method performs better than the conventional method.

Purpose : To explore a 3D conformal radiotherapy technique for a posterior fossa boost, and the potential advantages of a prone position for such radiotherapy. Materials and Methods :A CT simulator and 3D conformal radiotherapy Planning system was used for the posterior fossa boost treatment on a 13-year-old medulloblastoma patient. He was placed In the prone position and Immobilized with an aquaplast mask and immobilization mold. CT scans were obtained of the brain from the top of the skull to the lower neck, with IV contrast enhancement. The target volume and normal structures were delineated on each slice, with treatment planning peformed using non-coplanar conformal beams. Results : The CT scans, and treatment In the prone position, were peformed successfully. In the prone position, the definition of the target volume was made easier due to the well enhanced tentorium, In audition, the posterior fossa was located anteriorly, and with the greater choice of beam arrangements, more accurate treatment planning was possible as the primary beams were not obstructed by the treatment table. Conclusion : .A posterior fossa boost, in the prone position, Is feasible in cooperating patients, but further evaluation is needed to define the optimal and most comfortable treatment positions.

This paper proposes a 3D structure recovery and registration method that uses four or more common points. For each frame of a given video, a partial structure is recovered using tracked points. The 3D coordinates, camera positions and camera directions are computed at once by our improved scaled orthographic factorization method. The partially recovered point sets are parts of a whole model. A registration of point sets makes the complete shape. The recovered subsets are integrated by transforming each coordinate system of the local point subset into a common basis coordinate system. The process of shape recovery and integration is performed uniformly and linearly without any nonlinear iterative process and without loss of accuracy. The execution time for the integration is significantly reduced relative to the conventional ICP method. Due to the fast recovery and registration framework, our shape recovery scheme is applicable to various interactive video applications. The processing time per frame is under 0.01 seconds in most cases and the integration error is under 0.1mm on average.

In this paper, we implemented a three dimensional image display system using stereogram and holographic optical memory techniques which can store many images and reconstruct them automatically. In this system, to store and reconstruct stereo images, incident angle of reference beam must be controlled in real time, so we used BPH(binary phase hologram) and LCD(liquid crystal display) for controlling reference beam. The reference beams are acquired by Fourier transform of BPHs which designed with SA(simulated annealing)algorithm, and the BPHs are represented on the LCD with the 0.05 seconds time interval using application software for reconstructing the stereo images. And input images are represented on the LCD without polarizer/analyzer for maintaining uniform beam intensities regardless of the brightness of input images. The input images and BPHs are edited using application software(Photoshop) with having the same recording scheduled time interval in storing. The reconstructed stereo images are acquired by capturing the output images with CCD camera at the behind of the analyzer which transforms phase information into brightness information of images. In output plane, we used a LCD shutter that is synchronized to a monitor that display alternate left and right eye images for depth perception. We demonstrated optical experiment which store and reconstruct four stereo images in BaTiO$_3$ repeatedly using the proposed holographic optical memory techniques.

목적 : 환자의 호흡에 의한 움직임 및 부정확한 환자 자세 setup 때문에 3 차원 전신 정위 방사선치료,3 차원 입체조형 방사선치료 IMRT와 같은 방사선 치료기술에서 병소에 대한 정확한 표적 위치측정은 매우 어려운 실정이다. 그러므로 본 연구는 방사선 치료시 환자의 움직임을 최대한 고정시켜 줄 수 있으며 환자 자세에 대한 setup 오차를 감소시키고 환자 전신에 산재한 병소의 위치를 좌표화할 수 있는 전신 정위 프레임 제작과 제작한 프레임에 대한 고정효과 및 재현성을 나타내는 환자 자세의 setup 오차를 평가하는데 있다. 재료 및 방법 : 자체 제작한 전신 정위 프레임 구조는 CT 영상 촬영 가능성에 중점을 두고 병소 표적의 좌표실현 및 환자체형에 따른 다양성 그리고 프레임에 대한 견고성 및 안정성 확인에 초점화하여 제작하였다. 이렇게 제작된 전신 정위 프레임에 대한 방사선 투과율 측정 실험과 CCTV 카메라와 DVR(Digital Video Recorder)를 이용해 환자 자세 변화에 대한 영상을 획득하여 matlab으로 구현한 오차분석용 프로그램으로 환자 외부자세에 대한 오차 비교 평가하고 CT 촬영에 의한 가상표적 위치측정 실험을 수행하였다. 또 한 고정벨트 추가 사용으로 인한 환자의 고정효과 정도를 살펴보았다. 결과 : 제작된 전신 정위 프레임에 대한 방사선 투과율은 마그네트론 10, 21 MeV의 에너지에서 95, 96% 의 투과율이 측정되었고 30 $^{\circ}$. 60 。각도의 경사로 빔이 전달될 때는 90.3, 94.4% 가 측정되었다. CCTV 카메라를 이용하여 흉부 및 복부의 움직임을 촬영한 영상을 Matlab프로그램으로 구현한 오차분석 프로그램을 적용한 결과, 환자 자세에 대한 오차의 평균값은 흉부의 lateral 방향에서는 3.63$\pm$1.4 mm, AP 방향에서는 2.1$\pm$0.82 mm이었다. 그리고 복부의 later의 방향에서는 7.0$\pm$2.1 mm, AP 방향에서는 6.5$\pm$2.2 mm 이었다. 또한 표적 위치측정을 위해서 환자의 피부에 임의의 가상표적을 부착하고 CT 촬영한 영상결과, 프레임으로 가상표 적에 대한 위치를 정확히 파악할 수 있었다. 결론 : 제작된 프레임을 적용하여 방사선투과율 측정실험, 환자 외부자세에 대한 오차 측정실험, 가상표적 위치측정 실험 등을 수행하였다. 환자 외부자세에 대한 오차 측정실험 경우, 더 많은 Volunteer를 적용하여 보다 정확한 오차 측정실험이 수행되어야 할 것이며 정확한 표적 위치 측정실험을 위해서 내부 마커를 삽입한 환자를 적용한 임상실험이 수행되어야 할 것이다. 또한 위치결정에서 획득한 좌표값의 정확성을 알아보기 위해서 팬톰을 이용한 방사선조사 실험이 추후에 실행되어져야 할 것이다. 그리고 제작된 프레임에 Rotating X선 시스템과 내부 장기의 움직임을 계량화하고 PTV에서의 최적 여유폭을 설정함으로써 정위 방사선수술 및 3 차원 업체 방사선치료에 대한 병소 위치측정과 환자의 자세에 대한 setup 오차측정 결정에 도움이 될 수 있을 것이라고 사료된다.
