세기조절방사선치료(IMRT)는 복잡하고 정교한 방사선치료 기법을 이용한 환자 치료 시 치료계획의 정확성을 평가하기 위해 첫 치료 시작 전 품질관리를 권고하고 있다. 이 목적 실현을 위해 최근 상용화된 품질관리 소프트웨어를 이용하면 치료 전후의 정확한 방사선량의 전달을 확인할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 품질관리 시스템 내에 MLC의 선량학적엽간격(DLG)의 변화에 따른 IMRT 치료계획 경우별 계산 결과의 분석을 통해 그 효용성을 평가하고자 한다. MobiusFx에 입력할 MLC 다이나로그 파일(Dynamic MLC Log File)을 획득하기 위하여 HD120 MLC가 장착된 Novalis Tx를 이용하였다. IMRT 치료계획을 수립하기 위해 Eclipse 치료계획시스템을 사용하였으며, IBA사의 I'mRT 팬톰영상에 표적 및 장기 윤곽(다중표적, 전립선, 두경부, C-모양)을 묘사하였다. DLG에 따른 선량분포의 변화를 확인하기 위해서 MLC 다이나로그 파일을 MobiusFX 시스템에 입력하고 각 경우마다 0.5, 0.7, 1.0, 1.3, 1.6 mm로 DLG를 변화시켜 선량계산의 차이를 평가하였다. 선량평가는 허용범위가 3%/3 mm인 3차원 감마지표의 통과율과 DVH 그리고 CC13 전리함에 대한 점선량을 통해 분석하였다. MobiusFx에서 4가지의 경우에 대해 각 DLG 마다의 선량분포를 비교 분석한 결과, 다중표적과 두경부는 DLG가 0.5와 0.7 mm에서 3~5%, 1.0~1.6 mm에서 3% 미만의 선량차이를 보였다. 감마 지수 통과율에서도 0.7 mm 이하의 DLG에서 다중표적 경우의 중앙표적과 상위표적은 30% 미만, PTV와 척수는 81% 미만이었으며, 다른 DLG에서는 95% 이상의 통과율을 보였다. 하위표적과 귀밑샘은 모든 DLG에서 100.0%이었다. 전립선에서 점선량은 모든 DLG에서 3% 미만의 차이를 보였으나 PTV에서 DLG 0.7 mm 이하와 1.0 mm 이상에서는 각각 95% 미만과 98% 이상의 통과율을 보였다. 직장과 방광은 모든 DLG에서 100.0%로 나타났다. C-모양에서 점선량은 1.3 mm를 제외한 모든 DLG에서 3~9%의 차이를 보이며 PTV는 1.0과 1.3 mm의 DLG에서 각각 96.7, 93.0%의 통과율을 보였으나 다른 DLG에서는 86% 미만이었다. 코어에서는 모든 DLG에서 100.0%였다. 본 연구에서는 치료계획 품질관리 시스템에서 DLG 적용 값의 차이에 따라 품질관리의 정확성에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 그러므로 IMRT, VMAT 등 MLC의 움직임을 이용한 방사선치료법의 경우 정확한 품질관리를 위해서는 사용하고 있는 치료장비 및 치료계획시스템에 맞는 적합한 DLG 값을 상호 일치시켜 사용해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

There is nothing more important than the form and function in design, because every design product can be done on the basis of them. Form and Function are already existed before the word of design has been appeared and all the natural and man-made things' basic organization is based on their organic relations. The organic relations is the source of vitality which identifies the subsistance of all the objects and the evolution of living creatures has been changed their appearances by the natural law and order. Design is no exception. Design is a man-made organic thing which is developed its own way according to the purposed aim and given situations. If so, what is the ultimate goal of design. It is without saying that the goal is to make every effort to contribute to the -human beings most desirable life by the designer who is devoting himself to their convenience and well-being. Therefore, the designer can be called the man of rich life practitioner. This word implies a lot of meanings since the essence of design is improving the guality of life by the man-made things which are created by the designer. Also, the things are existed through the relations between form and function, and the things can keep their value when they are answered to the right purpose. In design, thus, it is to be a main concern how to create valuable things and to use them in the right way, and the subject of study is focused on the designer's outlook of value and uk relations between form and function. Christopher Alexander mentioned the importance of form as follows. The ultimate object of design is form. Every design problem begins with an effort to achieve fittness between the form and its context. The form is the solution to the problem: the context defmes the problem. In other words, when we speak of design, the real object of discussion is not form alone, but the ensemble comprising the form and its context. Good fit is a desirable property of this ensemble which relates to some particular division of the ensemble into form and context. Max Bill mainatined how important form is in design. Form represents a self-contained concept, and its embodiment in an object results in that object becoming a work of art. Futhermore, this explains why we use form so freguently in a comparative sense for determining whether one thing is less or more beautiful than another, and why the ideal of absolute beauty is always the standard by which we appraise form, and through form, art itself. Hence form has became synonymous with beauty. On the other hand, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy stated the importance of function as follows. Function means the task an object is designed to fulfill the task instrument is shaping the form. Unfortunately, this principle was not appreciated at the same time but through the endeavors of Frank Lloyd Wright and of the Bauhaus group and its many collegues in Europe, the idea of functionalism became the keynote of the twenites. Functionalism soon became a cheap slogan, however, and its original meaning blurred. It is neccessary to reexamine it in the light of present circumstances. Charles William Eliot expressed his idea on the relations between function and beauty. Beauty often results chiefly from fittness: indeed it is easy to manitain that nothing is fair except what is fit its uses or functions. If the function of the product of a machine be useful and valuable, an the machine be eminently fit for its function, it conspicuously has the beauty of fittness. A locomotive or a steamship has the same sort of beauty, derived from the supreme fittness for its function. As functions vary, so will those beauty..vary. However, it is impossible to study form and function in separate beings. Function can't be existed without form, and without function, form is nothing. In other words, form is a function's container, and function is content in form. It can be said that, therefore, the form and function are indispensable and commensal individuals which have coetemal relations. From the different point of view, sometimes, one is more emphasized than the other, but in this case, the logic is only accepted on the assumption of recognizing the importance of the other's entity. The fact can be proved what Frank Hoyd wright said that form and function are one. In spite of that, the form and function should be considered as independent indivisuals, because they are too important to be treated just as the simple single one. Form and function have flexible properties to the context. In other words, the context plays a role as the barometer to define the form and function, also which implies every meaning of surroun'||'&'||'not;dings. Thus, design is formed under the influence of situations. Situations are dynamic, like the design process itself, in which fixed focus can be cripping. Moreover, situations control over making the good design. Judging from the respect, I defined the good design in my thesis An Analytic Research on Desigh Ethic, "good design is to solve the problem by the most proper way in the situations." Situations are changeable, and so is design. There is no progress without change, but change is not neccessarily progress. It is highly desirable that there changes be beneficial to mankind. Our main problem is to be able to discriminate between that which should be discarded and that which should be kept, built upon, and improved. Form and Function are no exception. The practical function gives birth to the inevitable form and the $$\mu$ti-classified function is delivered to the varieties of form. All of these are depended upon changeable situations. That is precisely the situations of "situation de'||'&'||'not;sign", the concept of moving from the design of things to the design of the circumstances in which things are used. From this point of view, the core of form and function is depended upon how the designer can manage it efficiently in given situations. That is to say that the creativity designer plays an important role to fulfill the purpose. Generally speaking, creativity is the organization of a concept in response to a human need-a solution that is both satisfying and innovative. In order to meet human needs, creative design activities require a special intuitive insight which is set into motion by purposeful imagination. Therefore, creativity is the most essential quality of every designer. In addition, designers share with other creative people a compulsive ingenuity and a passion for imaginative solutions which will meet their criteria for excellence. Ultimately, it is said that the form and function is the matter which belongs to the desire of creative designers who constantly try to bring new thing into being to create new things. In accordance with that the main puppose of this thesis is to catch every meaning of the form and function and to close analyze their relations for the promotion of understanding and devising practical application to gradual progression in design. The thesis is composed of four parts: Introduction, Form, Function and Conclusion. Introduction, the purpose and background of the research are presented. In Chapter I, orgin of form, perception of form, and classification of form are studied. In Chapter II, generation of function, development of function, and diversification of function are considered. Conclusion, some concluding words are mentioned.ioned.
