헬스케어 산업은 제4차 산업혁명 기반 기술과 접목된 디지털 헬스케어로 개인의 건강과 의료에 관한 정보 등을 다루는 분야로 건강관리 서비스와 의료 과학기술이 융합된 형태이다. 패러다임 변화에 따른 디지털 헬스케어는 기존 「의료법」상의 의료행위 개념에 포섭되어 논의가 가능한 것인지 의문이 생긴다. 「의료법」상 의료행위의 개념에 관한 명확한 정의 규정은 없지만, 판례를 통해서 그 개념을 정립하고 있다. 그리고 「의료법」상 의료행위의 주체는 의료인으로 한정하고 있다. 그러나 디지털 헬스케어는 의료인에 의 한 디지털 기술을 이용한 질병 진단과 치료행위를 하는 경우가 있다. 이와는 달리 비의료인에 의해서 가능한 것이 디지털 헬스케어이다. 왜냐하면 디지털 헬스케어는 운동, 식습관 그리고 체중조절 등과 같은 건강관리를 포함하는 개념으로 이해되기 때문이다. 이로 인하여 디지털 헬스케어에 대한 「의료법」상 의료행위 개념에 포섭하는 경우 「의료법」 제27조에 규정된 '무면허의료행위'로 형사처벌의 대상이 된다. 보건의료산업은 디지털 전환과 정보통신기술과의 융복합이 빠르게 진행되고 있다. 이로 인하여 기존의 의료행위와 구분하여 '디지털화된 의료행위' 또는 '정보통신기술(ICT) 기반 의료행위'로 새롭게 규정할 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 의료행위 개념은 고정불변한 개념이 아닌 가변성을 가진다. 그렇다고 이러한 요구에 따라 의료행위 개념의 무한 확장이 아닌 그 범위의 재설정을 요청하는 것이다. 따라서 의료서비스체계에 대한 수요자의 요구를 반영하여 의료행위 개념을 법제화하여야 할 것이다.

We developed a digital x-ray medical imaging system using commercially available amorphous silicon image sensor plate. The image readout could be accomplished within 3.5 sec after radiation exposure and be displayed on a monitor through computer interface. This system needs not the conventional x-ray films and film processors, and also provides digital radiographic images. This system is the fastest digital radiography system developed so far, and expected to replace many of the conventional x-ray film systems or digital radiography systems.

Addressing challenges posed by an aging society, this study explores inclusive design orientations for digital medical interfaces catering to the elderly. The aim is to enhance inclusiveness and optimize interactive experiences within the medical system for senior users. Employing inclusive design concepts, the study analyzes characteristics through literature, focusing on functional purpose, interactive behavior, and emotional expression in digital medical interface design for the elderly. User research methods, including in-depth interviews and field research, generate user personas and behavioral analysis diagrams, organizing and categorizing pain points for elderly patients with chronic diseases. The study proposes principles for improving service touchpoints based on inclusiveness, optimizing pain point types and design processes in age-friendly services. These enhancements aim to help the elderly adapt to and integrate into a digital lifestyle.Incorporating inclusive design principles enhances the inclusiveness of service design, improving the service experience for the elderly. Age-friendly service design with inclusiveness serves as a valuable entry point for research targeting elderly populations and provides practical strategies for age-friendly medical service process design.

The purpose of this report is recommending a standard indicator which reflects the radiation exposure that is incident on a detector after every exposure event and that reflects the noise levels present in the image data. The experiment was performed with mobile digital X-ray unit and used a acrylic phantom for exposure index measurement. Exposure modality was kVp, mAs, SID. After every exposure, make a data sheet for characteristic curve of detector response. The equipment performed Mobile digital X-ray unit provide the user with values ralated to the incident exposure(air kerma)to the digital detector. They are showed as a logarithmic function shaped. As a result, DEI means a relative measure of exposure to the detector, as compared to the expected exposure for a particular anatomical view. Radiographic technique is the combination of factors used to exposure an anatomical part to produce a high quality radiography and technique charts used most commonly by radiographers to produce consistently exposure level which patient dose can be kept acceptably low.

Variations in the course and distribution of common palmar digital nerves and arteries are rare. A classic common palmar digital nerves and arteries are defined as concomitant. During routine dissection classes to undergraduate medical students we observed formation of each common palmar digital nerve divided into 2 or 3 branches and formed a ring enclosing the corresponding common palmar digital artery. Knowledge of the anatomical variations of the common palmar digital nerves and arteries is crucial for safe and successful hand surgery.

Purpose: The objective is to extract insights that can contribute to the formulation of harmonized international policies and support measures for innovative medical devices and management systems. This study aims to propose effective strategies for future medical device innovation and healthcare delivery. Results: It investigates technological advancements, regulatory approval systems, insurance policies, and successful commercialization cases in South Korea, the United States, and the European Union. In 2018, the FDA implemented insurance coverage for Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) and recognized insurance coverage for Digital Therapeutics (DTx). Germany is a country that ensures permanent reimbursement for healthcare applications since 2020, making it the first country to provide legal health insurance coverage for fostering a digital ecosystem. Conclusion: The findings of this research highlight the importance of cultivating a supportive regulatory and environmental framework to facilitate the adoption of innovative medical devices. Continuous support for research and development (R&D) efforts by companies, along with the validation of clinical effectiveness, is crucial.

Many radiological modalities has been applied to medicine as a basic fundamental diagnosis and therapy recently. The prevalence of computer systems affect most images to be digitized. However conventional X-ray film images are not digital images eventhough they covers 70% of all radiologica images. This is the hinderacne of building PACS. In this paper all radiological digital imaging parts such as DSA. CR. MRI. SPECT. PET and ultrasonography were briefly introduced and the applications were described. In brief digital radiography contribute to enhance the medical service quality. And the digital substituition of conventional X-ray film image is inevitable.

Heart related special images are classified as Cardiac US, XA, CT, MRI. Several Problem is caused by image compression, control and medical support point, so most big hospitals have created a Cadiac PACS differentially in past years. For this reason, create a conflict in inner colleague and patient, protector that result from 2 data processing server operating independently in 1 medical center area. For this reason, we sugges an alternative model of best medical control process together with understand the current situation on medical facility.

PURPOSE. The maximum width between the mesial and distal labial transitional line angles, described as "esthetic width" herein, could significantly influence the visual perception of the teeth and smile. This study aimed to conduct biometric research on esthetic width and to explore whether regular distribution exists in the esthetic width of human teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS. A total of 4,264 maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth were measured using the Geomagic studio software program. The proportions of maxillary to mandibular homonymous teeth and proportions between the adjacent teeth were calculated. Bilateral symmetry and the correlation between the esthetic and mesiodistal widths were both accounted for during the measurement procedures. RESULTS. The mean esthetic widths were 6.773 ± 0.518 mm and 4.329 ± 0.331 mm for maxillary and mandibular central incisors, respectively, 5.451 ± 0.487 mm and 5.008 ± 0.351 mm for maxillary and mandibular lateral incisors, respectively, and 3.340 ± 0.353 mm and 5.958 ± 0.415 mm for maxillary and mandibular canines, respectively. Except for the mandibular canines, no significant difference in esthetic width was found among homonymous teeth from the same jaw. A high linear correlation was found between the esthetic and mesiodistal widths of the same tooth, except for the maxillary canines. Esthetic width proportions among different tooth categories showed some regular patterns, which were similar to those of the mesiodistal width. CONCLUSION. Esthetic width is regularly distributed among the teeth in the Chinese population. This could provide an important reference for anterior dental restorations and dimension recovery in esthetic reconstruction of anterior teeth.
