To develop and evaluate formaldehyde measurement method using 2,4-dinitro-phenylhydrazine (2,4-DNPH) coated sampler and gas chromatography, laboratory test and field test were conducted. Results of this study are as follows. Limit of detection(LOD) of measurement methods, HPLC-UVD, GC-NPD and GC-FID, is $0.008{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ $0.060{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $0.472{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ respectively. Coefficiency of measurement methods, HPLC-UVD, GC-NPD and GC-FID, is 0.008, 0.009, 0.020 respectively. Desorption efficiency of sep-pak xposure aldehyde sampler and sorbent sample tube is 1.05(range : 0.99 - 1.12), 1.02(range : 0.99 - 1.06) respectively. Samples of sorbent sample tube and sep-pak xposure aldehyde sampler turned out to be stored at refrigerator, according to storage test results. Measurement methods of HPLC-UVD, GC-NPD, GC-FID, according to results of precision for the combined sampling and analytical procedure, became acceptable to OSHA evaluation standard. Field test using exposure chamber met the NIOSH overall uncertainty recommendation(less than 25%). Overall uncertainty of Sepak-HPLC(UVD), Tube-GC(NPD), Tube-GC(FID) is 11.0% - 17.0%. Consequently gas chromatography(GC-NPD, GC-FID) and high performance liquid chromatography(EPA TO-11) using 2,4-DNPH coated sampler for formaldehyde measurement turned out to be suitable to measure personal formaldehyde exposure at workplaces.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to verify the concordance of the measurement values when the same cephalometric analysis method was used for two-dimensional (2D) cephalometric radiography and three-dimensional computed tomography (3D CT), and to identify which 3D Frankfort horizontal (FH) plane was the most concordant with FH plane used for cephalometric radiography. Materials and Methods: Reference horizontal plane was FH plane. Palatal angle and occlusal plane angle was evaluated with FH plane. Gonial angle (GA), palatal angle, upper occlusal plane angle (UOPA), mandibular plane angle (MPA), U1 to occlusal plane angle, U1 to FH plane angle, SNA and SNB were obtained on 2D cephalmetries and reconstructed 3D CT. The values measured eight angles in 2D lateral cephalometry and reconstructed 3D CT were evaluated by intraclass correlation coefficiency (ICC). It also was evaluated to identify 3D FH plane with high degree of concordance to 2D one by studying which one in four FH planes shows the highest degree of concordance with 2D FH plane. Results: ICCs of MPA (0.752), UOPA (0.745), SNA (0.798) and SNB (0.869) were high. On the other hand, ICCs of gonial angle (0.583), palatal angle (0.287), U1 to occlusal plane (0.404), U1 to FH plane (0.617) were low respectively. Additionally GA and MPA acquired from 2D were bigger than those on 3D in all 20 patients included in this study. Concordance between one UOPA from 2D and four UOPAs from 3D CT were evaluated by ICC values. Results showed no significant difference among four FH planes defined on 3D CT. Conclusion: FH plane that can be set on 3D CT does not have difference in concordance from FH plane on lateral cephalometry. However, it is desirable to define FH plane on 3D CT with two orbitales and one porion considering the reproduction of orbitale itself.

목 적:신생아, 특히 미숙아에서 재태기간의 정확한 측정은 환자의 상태와 질병을 이해하여 치료하고 예후를 예상하는데 필수적이다. 이에 저자들은 신생아 뇌 초음파 검사시 최소한의 시간과 기구의 추가 사용으로 간편하게 정확한 재태기간을 추정할 수 있는 방법을 연구하였다. 방 법:일반적인 뇌 초음파 검사를 시행한 후 5-12 Mhz의 고해상도 선형 탐촉자를 사용하여 대천문을 통하여 관상면의 영상을 얻었고 여기에서 대뇌반구의 깊이와 뇌량의 두께 및 대상고랑의 깊이를 측정하여 재태기간과의 상관관계을 구하였다. 결 과:대뇌반구의 깊이, 뇌량의 두께 및 대상고랑의 깊이 중 재태기간과 가장 상관관계가 높은 측정치는 대상고랑의 깊이로 Pearson 상관계수 0.878을 보였다(P=0.000). 또한 대상고랑의 깊이가 0.55 cm 이상인 경우 단 두 례를 제외하고 모두 재태기간이 37주 이상이었고 대상고랑의 깊이가 0.35 cm 미만인 경우는 모두 34주 미만이었다. 결 론:고해상도 뇌 초음파 검사를 통해 측정된 대상고랑의 깊이는 신생아의 정확한 재태기간 측정에 유용하게 이용될 수 있다. 그러나 보다 더 많은 수의 신생아를 대상으로 한 대규모 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
