Although the number of computed tomography(CT) is increasing every year, it is insufficient to establish appropriate workload calculation standards of radiologic technologist to provide optimal medical services to patients, such as patient safety management and infection management. The purpose of this study is to present guidelines for calculating the appropriate workload of radiologic technologist by analyzing the work flow of CT procedures and the time required for CT examination in major hospitals. As for the study subjects and methods, the appropriate process for each step of CT examination was investigated to systematically present the process and time required for the actual examination, and the CT procedure time of 104,105 adult patients and 465 pediatric patients under the age of 6 were analyzed. For the time required, data according to the use of contrast medium, procedure type, and adult/child were collected and compared. The test time of CT examination using contrast medium took about 13 minutes when one radiologic technologist worked and about 9 minutes when two radiologic technologists worked. The time required for the procedures were statistically significant depending on the presence or absence of contrast medium, multi-phase procedure, and patient age (considering pediatric patients). As a result, in order to thoroughly perform patient safety and infection management, the appropriate workload increased by about 40% when there were two radiologic technologists. The limit workload was an average of 32 people per day with one radiologic technologist per 15 minutes, and 48 people per day with two radiologic technologist per 10 minutes. This is a marginal workload, and in the case of procedures that require more time to acquire radiographic images, the interval between reservations should be widened.

Purpose : To compare the diagnostic performance of clinical and radiologic examination for the interproximal caries on intraoral periapical radiographs and to evaluate the value of periapical radiographs. Methods: One hundred seven dental patients were examined clinically, with a mouth mirror and an explorer, by a dentist at the department of oral medicine, and the presence or absence of interproximal caries lesion was recorded. The patients were prescribed one or more dental periapical radiographs. Radiographs were assessed for the presence of interproximal caries by three oral and maxillofacial radiologists independantly. Two thousand sixty interproximal surfaces were included in this study. The diagnostic accuracies of clinical and radiologic examinations for interproximal caries were calculated. To assess the degree of agreement between clinical and radiologic examinations, Cohen's coefficient of agreement was computed. Results: The specificity of clinical and radiologic examination was 0.991, 0.997 and the sensitivity was 0.279, 0.985 respectively. The diagnostic accuracy of radiologic examination was statistically significantly higher than that of clinical examination (P<0.05). Cohen's kappa value of clinical and radiologic examination was 0.335, 0.942 respectively. These results suggested that clinical examination show only fair agreement, whereas radiologic examination show perfect agreement. Conclusion: The diagnositic performance of the dental periapical radiographs on interproximal caries were higher than that of clinical examination, thus this study showed the validity of periapical radiographs for detecting interproximal caries lesion without bitewing radiograph.

The purpose of this study was to apply a concept map to the first-year students of radiologic science and report its effects. The concept map is a visual representation of a major concept and related linking statements. Concept maps are useful tools for students to construct and organize content they have learned. The subjects of this study were first-year grade and at one university in Chungbuk, Korea. They were divided into active and passive participant groups in the class. And they were evaluated the educational effects such as satisfaction, fidelity, learning achievement, and interest before and after using the concept map. As a result, the passive participant group significantly increased the educational effect except for satisfaction, and the active participant group significantly increased the educational effect in all variables (p<0.05). These results showed that concept mapping, which induces first-year grade students to participate in class, could be helpful in radiologic education. It is expected to be used as basic data in various radiologic educational methodology studies in the future.

Digital Radiography(DR) 시스템은 임상현장에서 아날로그 시스템을 대체하고 널리 이용되고 있다. DR을 이용하여 얻어진 X선 영상의 해상력을 결정짓는 요소에는 이용되는 검출기의 고유 해상력, 피사체의 대조도 및 특성, X선 선질, X선원의 산란, DR 검출기의 성능, X선 변환효율 및 초점의 크기, 피사체의 움직임 등이 있다. DR 검출기를 구성하는 요소에는 X선 포획 요소, 커플링 요소, 정보수집 요소가 있는데 이들은 시스템의 성능에 영향을 미치며, 그 성능은 해상력으로 평가된다. 의료영상 시스템의 해상력은 촬영대상물의 조직 간의 해부학적 영상을 구분하는 능력을 나타낸다. 해상력 평가를 위해 Modulation Transfer Function(MTF)이 보편적으로 이용되고, MTF는 입력 공간주파수 성분에 대한 출력 공간주파수 성분의 비를 나타내는데, 수학적으로 MTF는 Point Spread Function(PSF) 입력에 대한 시스템의 주파수 응답이며 Edge Phantom을 이용한 결과 영상에서 추출된 Line Spread Function(LSF)을 Fourier Transform하면 얻을 수 있다. 일반적으로 임상현장에서 의료영상시스템의 이용 및 관리의 책임은 방사선사가 맡고 있지만, MTF를 측정하기 위해서는 공학적, 수학적 기초 및 C, Fortran, Matlab등의 프로그램 작성 능력이 필요하기 때문에 비 공학도는 정확한 측정이 불가능하다. 의료영상 시스템의 성능 관리 및 최상의 상태를 유지하기 위해 시스템의 성능평가가 이뤄져야 하는데, 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 비공학도가 해상력 성능평가를 할수 있도록 ImageJ 및 Excel을 이용하여 해상력 평가를 할 수 있도록 방법을 제시하고, 제안된 방법을 이용해 계산된 결과와 프로그래밍을 이용해 계산된 결과의 비교를 통해 본 논문에서 제시하는 방법의 유용성을 확인하였다.
