The purpose of this study was to evaluate effect of platelet rich plasma on the treatment of Grade II furcation involvement, with and without porous resorbable calcium carbonate($Biocoral^{(R)}$)in humans by digital subtraction radiography. 15 teeth(control group) were treated with porous resorbable calcium carbonate($Biocoral^{\(R)}$), and 15 teeth(test group) were treated with porous resorbable calcium carbonate($Biocoral^{(R)}$) and Platelet Rich Plasma. The change of bone density was assessed by digital subtraction radiography in this study. The change of mineral content by as much as 5%(vol) could be perceived in the subtracted images. The change of mineral content was assessed in the method that two radiographs are put into computer program to be overlapped and the previous image is subtracted by the later one. Both groups were statistically analyzed by Wilcoxon signed Ranks Test and Mann-whitney Test using SPSS program(5% significance level). The results were as follows: 1. In test group, the radiolucency in 3 months after surgry were significantly increased than 1 month after surgery(p<0.05). 2. In test group, there were no significant difference between 1 month after surgery and 6 months after surgery(p>0.05). 3. In test group, the radiopacity in 6 months after surgery were significantly increased than 3 months after surgery(p<0.05). 4. In control group, the radiolucency in 3 months and 6 months after surgery were significantly increased than 1 month after surgery(p<0.05). 5. In control group, the radiopacity in 6 months after surgery were significantly increased than 3 months after surgery(p<0.05). 6. There were no significant difference between test group and control group at 1 month, 3 months after surgery, but radiopacity in test group were significantly increased than control group at 6 months after surgery(p<0.05). In conclusion, Platelet Rich Plasma can enhance bone density.

The following conclusions were obtained from the non-reconstructed and reconstructed subtraction images of the standard intraoral radiographs which were taken with paralleling technique with Rinn XCP only and with occlusal bite registration for geometric standardization using bilateral mandibular premolar and molar regions of two dry human skulls. 1. The SD of the overall subtraction images of the premolars and molars of the non-reconstructed, that is, the manual superimposition showed statistically significant difference between the non-registered and registered groups. 2. In non-reconstructed and non-registered cases, the quality of the subtraction images were improved when superimposition was focally done and this was more evident in areas where the radiographic images tend to be distorted due to anatomic reasons. 3. In non-reconstructed and registered cases, the subtraction images were consistent regardless of the anatomic site or the focus of superimposition. This means that the geometric standardization with only occlusal bite registration could produce serial radiographs which is suitable for subtraction. 4. The SD of the overall subtraction images of the premolars and molars of the reconstructed, that is, the automatic superimposition showed statistically insignificant difference between the non-registered and registered groups. This means that using reconstruction, subtraction radiography is possible without occlusal bite registration. 5. In reconstructed and non-registered cases, compatible quality of the subtraction images were obtained regardless of the anatomic site or area of the corresponding points. 6. In reconstructed and registered cases, best subtraction images whose quality showed sensitivity to the areas of corresponding points were obtained.

듀얼 에너지 디지털 촬영법 (dual-energy digital radiography, DEDR)은 에너지 감산법을 이용하여 신체 내 병변을 감지하는 데 사용 되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 DEDR을 이용하여 관전압과 부가필터와 같은 물리적 인자를 변화시킴으로써 최적의 뼈와 조직 영상을 획득하고, SRS-78 프로그램으로 예측한 값과 비교하고자 한다. 에너지 감산법을 이용하여 뼈와 조직의 분리된 영상을 획득하기 위하여 다양한 물질의 물리적 인자의 변화에 따른 영상을 구하였다. 연구에 사용된 팬텀은 알루미늄과 polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)로 구성되었으며, 영상의 최적화는 대조도 대 잡음비 (contrast-to-noise ratio, CNR)로 측정하였다. 실험 결과 50 kVp와 120 kVp 두 영상의 감산 영상이 최적의 뼈와 조직의 분리 영상임을 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 고 에너지에 10 mm 알루미늄 부가필터를 추가하였을 때, 최적의 뼈와 조직의 분리 효과를 기대 할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 실험 전에 SRS-78 프로그램으로 예측한 최적화 조건과 일치함을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 관전압이나 부가필터 두께와 같은 물리적 인자를 적절하게 조절한다면 최적의 영상을 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였고, DEDR을 이용하여 원하는 부분만을 표현함으로써 의료영상분야에 기여하고 응용분야를 확장 할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

본 연구에서는 치과용 디지털 X-ray 영상의 기하학적인 분석을 통한 자연치아 주위염 분리에 관한 방안을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 치아의 기하학적인 분석을 통하여 예상되는 환부를 분리하고, 분리된 환부를 중심으로 다중 템플릿의 에지 기반 정합을 수행함으로써 환부 이외 지역에서 발생되는 오류 정보를 최소화 하였으며, 차정보 생성시 수치적인 근거를 제시함으로써 결과의 일관성 및 객관성을 갖도록 하였다. 실험 결과, 인간의 시각으로 판별하기 어려운 미세한 차이의 표시 및 환부의 이상 발생 여부를 확연히 구분할 수 있었고, 실용 시스템으로의 이용이 가능함을 확인하였다.

Purpose : To assess the methods for the clinical evaluation of the longitudinal bone changes after implantation of tooth ash-plaster mixture into the defect area of human jaws. Materials and methods : Tooth ash-plaster mixtures were implanted into the defects of 8 human jaws. 48 intraoral radiograms taken with copper step wedge as reference at soon, 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 6th week after implantation of mixture were used. X-ray taking was standardized by using Rinn XCP device customized directly to the individual dentition with resin bite block. The images inputted by Quick scanner were digitized and analyzed by NIH image program. Cu­equivalent values were measured at the implanted sites from the periodic digital images. Analysis was performed by the bidirectional subtraction with color enhancement and the surface plot of resliced contiguous image. The obtained results by the two methods were compared with Cu­equivalent value changes. Results : The average determination coefficient of Cu-equivalent equations was 0.9988 and the coefficient of variation of measured Cu values ranged from 0.08~0.10. The coefficient of variation of Cu-equivalent values measured at the areas of the mixture and the bone by the conversion equation ranged from 0.06 ~0.09. The analyzed results by the bidirectional subtraction with color enhancement were coincident with the changes of Cu-equivalent values. The surface plot of the resliced contiguous image showed the three dimensional view of the longitudinal bone changes on one image and also coincident with Cu-equivalent value changes after implantation. Conclusion : The bidirectional subtraction with color enhancement and the surface plot of the resliced contiguous image was very effective and reasonable to analyze clinically and qualitatively the longitudinal bone change. These methods are expected to be applicable to the non-destructive test in other fields.
