Deep learning is another field of artificial intelligence (AI) utilized for computer aided diagnosis (CAD) and image processing in scientific research. Considering numerous mechanical repetitive tasks, reading image slices need time and improper with geographical limits, so the counting of image information is hard due to its strong subjectivity that raise the error ratio in misdiagnosis. Regarding the highest mortality rate of Lung cancer, there is a need for biopsy for determining its class for additional treatment. Deep learning has recently given strong tools in diagnose of lung cancer and making therapeutic regimen. However, identifying the pathological lung cancer's class by CT images in beginning phase because of the absence of powerful AI models and public training data set is difficult. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) was proposed with its essential function in recognizing the pathological CT images. 472 patients subjected to staging FDG-PET/CT were selected in 2 months prior to surgery or biopsy. CNN was developed and showed the accuracy of 87%, 69%, and 69% in training, validation, and test sets, respectively, for T1-T2 and T3-T4 lung cancer classification. Subsequently, CNN (or deep learning) could improve the CT images' data set, indicating that the application of classifiers is adequate to accomplish better exactness in distinguishing pathological CT images that performs better than few deep learning models, such as ResNet-34, Alex Net, and Dense Net with or without Soft max weights.

Recently, many studies have introduced artificial intelligence systems in the surgical process to reduce the incidence and mortality of complications in patients. Bleeding is a major cause of operative mortality and complications. However, there have been few studies conducted on detecting bleeding in surgical videos. To advance the development of deep learning models for detecting intraoperative hemorrhage, three models have been trained and compared; such as, YOLOv5, RetinaNet50, and RetinaNet101. We collected 1,016 bleeding images extracted from five surgical videos. The ground truths were labeled based on agreement from two specialists. To train and evaluate models, we divided the datasets into training data, validation data, and test data. For training, 812 images (80%) were selected from the dataset. Another 102 images (10%) were used for evaluation and the remaining 102 images (10%) were used as the evaluation data. The three main metrics used to evaluate performance are precision, recall, and false positive per image (FPPI). Based on the evaluation metrics, RetinaNet101 achieved the best detection results out of the three models (Precision rate of 0.99±0.01, Recall rate of 0.93±0.02, and FPPI of 0.01±0.01). The information on the bleeding detected in surgical videos can be quickly transmitted to the operating room, improving patient outcomes.

최근 삼차원적 안면 스캔 (facial scan) 및 악운동 (jaw motion) 등의 데이터를 통합하여 동적 교합을 나타내는 가상 환자를 형성함으로써 심미적인 전치부 고정성 보철물을 제작하는 방법이 소개되고 있다. 이를 통해 진단과정에서 환자와의 원활한 소통이 가능하며, 심미적인 보철 치료의 예지성을 높일 수 있고, 교합조정의 가능성을 낮출 수 있다. 본 증례에서는 상악 전치부 심미 보철 수복이 필요한 환자에서 구강 스캔 데이터와 삼차원 (3D) 안면 스캔데이터, 환자의 악운동 기록을 computer-aided design (CAD) 소프트웨어 상에서 통합하여 동적 교합을 나타내는 가상 환자를 형성하였다. 이를 통해 치료의 결과를 시뮬레이션하고 심미적인 상악 전치부 고정성 보철물을 제작 및 수복하였다. 또한, 안정적인 교합관계를 회복하고 적절한 전방유도가 형성되었는지 확인하기 위하여 각각 치료 단계별로 환자의 교합을 비교 평가하였으며 심미적, 기능적으로 만족스러운 결과를 보였기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.

유방 촬영술(Digital mammography)은 유방암의 조기 진단에서 매우 중요한 진단 방법으로서 비촉지성 유방암의 조기 발견율을 높여 유방암에 따른 여성의 사망률을 감소시키고 있다. 그 중에서도 유방 병변의 미세석회화(Microcalcification)는 조기 유방암의 진단에 있어서 중요한 병변으로 보고 되고 있으며, 선별 검사로 임상적 유용성이 확립된 상태이다. 유방 촬영술에서 미세석회화 소견은 영상의학과 전문의가 판독하여 조직 검사에서 양성 및 악성 병변에 대하여 각각 군집의 개수, 군집 당 석회화 수, 미세석회화 크기와 범위, 미세석회화 형태, 동반 종괴의 유무 등을 분석하여 최종적으로 진단을 확정한다. 그러므로 군집화된 미세석회화의 정보는 유방암 예측에 있어 임상적인 실질 정보를 가지고 있으며, 의사에게 진단을 위한 검사의 기본적인 가이드라인을 제시한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유방 촬영술의 디지털 영상에 나타난 미세석회화의 정량적인 계산을 위해서 DoG filter, Adaptive thresholding, Expectation Maximization의 3단계를 제안한다. 제안한 알고리듬을 실험을 통하여 군집화 및 각 클러스터 내의 미세석회화의 분포 개수, 길이를 측정하였으며, 임상의 사에게 디지털 유방영상의 분석을 통하여 초기 유방암 진단의 지표를 제시할 것으로 사료된다. 그리고 이는 객관적인 유방암 컴퓨터자동검출(CAD)에 사용될 수 있는 병변의 정보로서 가능성을 보였다.

Purpose: To report on the current practices in breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in Korea. Materials and Methods: We invited the 68 members of the Korean Society of Breast Imaging who were working in hospitals with available breast MRI to participate in a survey on how they performed and interpreted breast MRI. We asked one member from each hospital to respond to the survey. A total of 22 surveys from 22 hospitals were analyzed. Results: Out of 22 hospitals, 13 (59.1%) performed at least 300 breast MRI examinations per year, and 5 out of 22 (22.7%) performed > 1200 per year. Out of 31 machines, 14 (45.2%) machines were 1.5-T scanners and 17 (54.8%) were 3.0-T scanners. All hospitals did contrast-enhanced breast MRI. Full-time breast radiologists supervised the performance and interpreted breast MRI in 19 of 22 (86.4%) of hospitals. All hospitals used BI-RADS for MRI interpretation. For computer-aided detection (CAD), 13 (59.1%) hospitals sometimes or always use it and 9 (40.9%) hospitals did not use CAD. Two (9.1%) and twelve (54.5%) hospitals never and rarely interpreted breast MRI without correlating the mammography or ultrasound, respectively. The majority of respondents rarely (13/21, 61.9%) or never (5/21, 23.8%) interpreted breast MRI performed at an outside facility. Of the hospitals performing contrast-enhanced examinations, 15 of 22 (68.2%) did not perform MRI-guided interventional procedures. Conclusion: Breast MRI is extensively performed in Korea. The indication and practical patterns are diverse. The information from this survey would provide the basis for the development of Korean breast MRI practice guidelines.
