Retrospective review of 26 patients undergoing open lung biopsy at the Yonsei University during 10 years period was conducted to evaluate open lung biopsy for DILD. From January 1980 to August 1990, open lung biopsy was performed in 26 patients through a limited thoracotomy incision[a limited anterior or a posterolateral thoracotomy]. Open lung biopsy was indicated for diffuse interstitial pulmonary diseases undiagnosed by indirect clinical and radiological diagnostic methods. The types of incision were limited anterior[11] and limited posterolateral[15]. Preoperative evaluation of the lung disease included sputum culture[26], sputum cytology [19], bronchoscopy[9] and TBLB[7]. In 23 patients the histologic appearances after open lung biopsy were sufficiently specific histologic pictures to confirm diagnosis. The results of the biopsies changed usual therapeutic plan in 17 patients among them. The complications were resp. insufficiency[3], pulmonary ed6ma[3], sepsis[2], and others[3] in 6 patients. Diagnosis from the open lung biopsy was included respiratory pneumonia[7], fibrosis[7], infection[5], malignancy[2], others[5]. 4 patients died of respiratory insufficiency. The causes of the other three death were not due to direct result of the biopsy itself. Open lung biopsy in the patient with a diffuse infiltrative lung disease is an one of the accurate diagnostic method and frequently leads to change of the therapeutic plans. So we conclude that open lung biopsy remains our diagnostic method of choice in diffuse infiltrative lung disease undetermined etiology.

We are creating all-sky diffuse maps from the AKARI mid-infrared survey data with the two photometric bands centered at wavelengths of 9 and $18{\mu}m$. The AKARI mid-infrared diffuse maps achieve higher spatial resolution and higher sensitivity than the IRAS maps. In particular, the $9{\mu}m$ data are unique resources as an all-sky tracer of the emission of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). However, the original data suffer many artifacts. Thus, we have been developing correction methods. Among them, we have recently improved correction methods for the non-linearity and the reset anomaly of the detector response. These corrections successfully reduce the artifact level down to $0.1MJy\;sr^{-1}$ on average, which is essential for discussion on faint extended emission (e.g., the Galactic PAH emission). We have also made progress in the subtraction of the scattered light caused in the camera optics. We plan to release the improved diffuse maps to the public within a year.

Direct and diffuse components of solar radiation were measured inside and outside a single-span plastic greenhouse. To analyze the direct solar radiation inside the plastic greenhouse, the cross-section of the greenhouse was assumed to be circular. Then the direct solar radiation transmitted into the greenhouse was calculated theoretically, and compared with the experimental measurements. The results are summarized as follows: (1) The transmissivities of total solar radiation were about 65% on cloudy days and 50% on clear days. For cloudy days, the transmissivity of the total solar radiation was regarded as the transmissivity of sky diffuse radiation. (2) The ratio of the inside effective scattered component of direct solar radiation to the diffuse radiation was 60-65%. (3) It appeared that the seasonal variation of the transmissivity of total solar radiation was adversely affected by the transmissivity of direct solar radiation and the effective scattered coefficient. But the effect of the transmissivity of direct solar radiation was dominant factor. (4) Computer simulation showed that the inside direct solar radiation was decreased as the floor of the plastic greenhouse was higher. (5) The predicted value of the inside direct solar radiation was 3.3% to 29.0% higher than the measured value.

We report a case of pyogenic spondylitis on L2 and L3 with diffuse epidural abscess up to T4 to L3 and large psoas abscess. A forty-nine-year old male was presented with progressive back pain, left flank pain and ab-dominal distention, weakness of the both legs and voiding and defecation difficulty during last 2 months. Initially multiple coronal hemilaminectomies from T4 to T12 were done for the treatment of diffuse thoracic epidural ab-scess. Then second operation via left retroperitoneal approach was performed for lumbar spondylitis and psoas abscess on third day after initial operation. After removal and curettage of pyogenic psoas and epidural abscess and spondylitis (L2-L3), iliac bone grafting with Keneda instrumentation from L1 to L4 was done simultaneously. Postoperative course has been unevenful without recurrent infection. The literature on diffuse epidural and large psoas abscess with pyogenic spondylitis are reviewed and instrumentation for stabilization of pyogenic spondylitis is also discussed.

Romania aims to adopt and implement the European Union's legislation, also including that for the field of water management. Like other countries, groundwater in Romania is locally polluted from point sources, such as leaking landfills, as well as from diffuse pollution sources, include fertilizers, pesticides and leakages from sewers, in urbanized areas. Diffuse pollution can also occur indirectly, by over-exploitation of groundwater wells, resulting in salt water intrusion, as well as from mining and exploitation of mineral aggregates. Romania has quite an intensive monitoring scheme to measure groundwater quality in phreatic and confined aquifers. The purpose of the work resumed in this paper was to derive natural background levels (NBL) for groundwater in order to distinguish the natural elevated concentrations of some substances (natural phenomena) from point and diffuse pollution (anthropogenic phenomena). Based on these NBLs, threshold values (TV) for groundwater will be set according to the requirements of the European Water Framework Directive and the related Groundwater Directive. This paper describes the results of a study for the derivation of NBL and TV in a pilot Groundwater Body. Also, the process and draft results for extrapolating this work for all Romanian groundwater bodies is explained, as well as points for future consideration with respect to monitoring and management.

The diffuse attenuation coefficient for down-welling irradiance ($K_d$) is an important parameter for ocean studies including remote sensing applications. For the vast ocean, ocean color remote sensing is the only possible means to get the fine-scale measurements of $K_d$. To develop a technique of estimating $K_d$ from remotely sensed data, the following underwater optical parameters (absorption coefficient (a), attenuation coefficient (c), scattering coefficient (b), diffuse attenuation coefficient ($K_d$), etc.) have been studied. For this research we conducted the field campaign around the Yellow Sea at $8{\sim}9$ June, 2006. We obtained a set of underwater optical parameter data: down-welling irradiance ($E_d$), up-welling irradiance ($E_u$) and up-welling radiance ($L_u$) using TriOS optical sensors and a, c coefficient using Spectral Absorption and Attenuation Meter (AC-S). We then derived $K_d$ values from $E_d$ for each depth.

수중에서의 하향 방향의 감쇠 계수 (Diffuse attenuation coefficient of down-welling irradiance, $K_d$)에 대한 연구는 상충 해양에 대한 열전달 수중에서의 광합성 및 다른 생물학적 과정에 대한 연구，해양 일차 생산력 추정, 대양 및 연안에서의 탁도 추정 등에 대한 연구의 보조 자료로서 해양원격탐사를 포함한 해양에 대한 연구에 매우 중요한 요소이다. 우리나라는 세계 최초의 정지궤도 해색 센서인 Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI)를 2008년 말에 통신해양기상위성 (COMS, Communication Ocean and Meteorological Satellite)에 탑재하여 쏘아 올릴 계획에 있다. 이 센서는 매일 한 시간 간격으로 한반도 주변 해역을 8회 이상 관측할 계획에 었다. 따라서 기존의 해색 센서들에 비해서 시간 해상도가 향상되기 때문에 해양 환경 모니터링에 있어서 많은 도움이 될 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구에서는 앞으로 운영될 GOCI 센서에 대한 수중에서의 하향 방향의 감쇠계수 (The diffuse attenuation coefficient of down-welling irradiance, $K_d$) 알고리즘을 현장 관측 값을 이용하여 미리 만들어 보고 이를 현재의 대표적인 해색 센서인 SeaWiFS 영상의$K_d$(490) product와 비교하여 보았다.
