목적 : 전신피부의 수 mm 깊이에 한정된 피부 종양의 전신전자선조사에서 균등선량을 얻기위해, 원거리 전자선조사면에 대한 선량특성을 얻고 상하6방향조사에 의한 전신피부선량분포를 조사하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 전신조사를 위한 실험적 선량분포는 전자선 타켓-피부간 거리 300 cm에서, 크기가 105*105 $cm^2$ (콜리메-터 35*35 $m^2$, TSD 100 cm) 인 조사면으로 4 MeV 전자선의 심부선량률, 공간선량분포, 에너지감쇠에 의한 선량률 변화 등의 선량특성이 정해졌다. 환자는 상하 6방향조사가 이루어지는 동안 안정된 위치를 유지하기 위하여 양손을 치켜들고 기둥막대를 잡을 수 있는 발판에 위에 표시해둔 위치에 서게 하였다. 4 MeV 전자선 에너지를 감쇠 시켜 산란선고 피부선량을 높이기 위해 전자선 통로상 환자 전면의 20 cm 거리에 0.5 cm 두께의 산란체인 아크릴판을 설치하였다. 전신피부의 흡수선량은 테프론혼합 CaSO4:Dy 열형광소자 (1 mm 직경 * 6 mm 길이)를 전신 74 곳에 부착하여 분할조사면에 의한 합성선량을 평가하였다. 결과 : 전자선 타켓-피부간 거리 300 cm에서 얻어진 105*105 $cm^2$ 의 큰 조사면의 선량 반치폭은 130 cm 였으며, 80$\%$ 폭은 86 cm 로 나타났으며, 두 조사면을 FWHM 만큼 이동하여 두 조사면을 25 cm 띄워 조사한 합성선량분포에서 선량률이 $100\pm10\%$ 인 균등조사면의 폭은 186 cm 로 확장되었다. 인체전면 20 cm 위체에 0.5 cm 아크릴판을 삽입한 결과, 4 MeV 전자선은 최대선량점 5 mm, 80$\%$ 깊이가 7 mm, 50$\%$ 깊이는 10.7 mm를 보여 감쇠된 전자선의 평균에너지는 2.5 MeV 였다. 큰 조사면의 선속 중심에서 50 cm 떨어진 위치의 심부선량률은 중심선속의 심부선량과 거의 동일 값을 보였다. 전신피부조사에 의한 환자의 선량분포는 인체의 돌출부와 굴곡부분을 제외하고는 비교적 균등한 선량이 도달되었으며, 돌출부와 분할조사면이 잘 이루어지지 않는 중첩조사부위는 각각 30$\%$ 와 60-100$\%$ 의 과다선량이 도달되어 치료중 차폐가 불가피한 반면, 인체구조상 전자선이 가리워지는 두정부, 회음부 및 대퇴부 내측은 선량이 거의 도달 되지 않는 곳이 생겨지므로 부가적 조사가 필요함을 알 수 있었다. 결론 : 전신피부조사는 2-3 MeV의 저에너지 전자선빔에 의해 피하 수 mm 깊이에 80$\%$ 의 선량을 도달시킬 수 있으며, 높은 에너지에서는 흡수체를 이용하여 적정에너지를 얻을 수 있다. 전신피부조사에서 전신균등선량은 전자선을 상하 각각 6문조사로 고정분할 조사하는 경우 전자선이 가리워지는 부위를 제외하고 대개 $\pm10\%$ 의 선량오차범위에 들었으나, 돌출부위의 선량과다부위에는 차폐가 필요하였으며, 전자선이 가리워지는 부위는 부가치료를 통해 임상에 적합한 균등선량분포를 얻을 수 있다.

본 연구는 전라북도 정읍시와 김제시의 경계에 위치해 있는 상두산 일대 바위글씨의 형식과 내용을 검토하고, 바위글씨가 새겨진 공간의 특성을 파악함으로써 바위글씨의 경관적 의미와 가치를 구명하고자 하였다. 상두산(象頭山, 575.3m)은 석가모니가 수행하던 인도의 동명(同名)산에서 유래한 명칭이며, 이때, '상두(象頭)'는 상서로움을 의미한다. 조선시대의 고지도와 문헌에서는 풍수도참과 관련된 다수의 명당개념이 전해지고 있어 상두산의 상서로운 이미지를 견고히 하는 요인이 되고 있다. 상두산에는 총 4개 수계에 한자로 새겨진 41개의 바위글씨가 존재하는데 바위글씨의 입지는 주로 계곡상 평석 형태의 너럭바위 또는 낙폭이 1m미만인 소폭(小瀑)과 와폭(臥瀑)주변에 새겨져 있는 특징을 보인다. 서체는 전서(篆書)를 비롯한 행서(行書)와 초서(草書)등 다양한 형태를 보이고 있는데, 일부는 각자인(刻字人)의 성명과 집자(集子)한 바위글씨의 서체가 하나의 작품처럼 인식될 정도로 높은 완성도와 예술성을 갖춘 것으로 파악된다. 바위글씨를 새기는데 주도적인 역할을 한 인물은 동초(東樵) 김석곤(金晳坤)을 비롯한 청계시회(淸溪詩會) 회원과 후암(厚庵) 김창석(金昌碩), 월계(月溪) 송영조(宋榮祚) 등으로 이들이 새긴 바위글씨는 조선시대 선비의 덕목인 수신(修身)과 관련된 내용이 25건으로, 비록 일제강점기이나 선비로서의 자존(自存)을 지키고자 하였음을 보여주며 또 일부는 '물외(物外)에서 노니는 탈속(脫俗)의 경지'를 보여주는 내용으로 일제강점기하 선비와 식민지인으로서의 갈등을 표상(表象)한다. 이처럼 상두산 바위글씨는 단지 물리적인 형태뿐만 아니라 민족성을 고취시키는 내용이자 경관상징성을 배가시키는 문화경관 요소로써의 보존적 가치가 크다고 사료된다.

우리나라에서 식물생장(植物生長)이 가장 나쁜 니암지대(泥岩地帶) 황폐림지(荒廢林地)에 지피식생(地被植生)을 조성(造成)시키기 위하여 지피식생(地被植生) 조성시험(造成試驗)을 실시(實施)한 결과(結果)는 다음과 같다. 1. 객토량시험(客土量試驗)에 있어서 객토(客土)는 두께 15cm이상을 하여야만 객토(客土)의 효과(効果)를 인정(認定)할 수있었고, 10cm의 객토(客土)를 하고서도 시비(施肥)를 하지 않으면 생장(生長)이 불량(不良)하여 1cm 객토후(客土後) 비료(肥料)를 충분(充分)히 사용(使用)한 구(區)보다 못하였다. 또 파종혈(播種穴)의 깊이에 있어서 30cm구(區)와 40cm구(區)와는 그 성적차(成績差)를 인정(認定)할 수가 없었다. 식생대피복구(植生袋被覆區)와 무피복구(無被覆區)는 식물(植物)이 발아당시(發芽當時)에는 종자(種子)의 유실여부(流失如否)와 유시(幼時) 생장상(生長上)의 차(差)가 다소(多少)있었으나 가을 성적(成績) 결과(結果)는 차(差)를 인정(認定)할 수 없어서, 이것을 종합(綜合)하여 보면 객토(客土)는 10cm이상(以上)이고 파종혈(播種穴)($30cm{\times}30cm$)당(當) 30g(22:22:11 복비(複肥) 55g)의 시비(施肥)를 하여야 한다. 2. 객토파종별(客土播種別) 시험(試驗)에 있어서 화강암풍화토(花崗巖風化土), 응회암풍화토(凝灰岩風化土), 니암풍화토별(泥岩風化土別) 성적(成績)은 고도(高度)의 유의차(有意差)가 없어고, 각종녹화자재별(各種綠化資材別) 처리(處理)에서도 모연공구(毛筵工區)에서만 1%의 유의차(有意差)를 나타내었다. 이것을 종합(綜合)하면 본 바닥 산록(山麓)의 성취(成就)된 니암풍화토(泥岩風化土)를 객토(客土)로 사용(使用)하는 것이 효과적(効果的)이며 모연공구(毛筵工區)가 좋았다. 3. 니암지대(泥岩地帶)의 임지비암(林地肥岩)임지에는 기존임목(旣存林木)(소나무, 해송)이 1ha당(當) 2,000~3,000본(本) 산재(散在)되어 있으므로 1ah당(當) 22:22:11 복합비료(複合肥料)를 성분량(成分量)으로 110kg을 시용(施用)한 결과(結果) 시비당년(施肥當年)에는 차(差)를 인정(認定)할수 없었으나 다만 엽색(葉色)이 농록색(濃綠色)을 정(呈)하고 엽장(葉長)이 30~40% 더 신장(伸張)하였고 사방오리나무에 있어서 14:37:12 및 9:12:3 복비(複肥)를 본당성분량(本當成分量)으로 20g 구(區)와 40g 구(區)로 나누어 시비(施肥)한 결과(結果) 40g구(區)가 월등(越等)히 생장(生長)이 양호(良好)하였으며 비종간(肥種間)에는 차(差)이를 인정(認定)할수 없었다. 4. 임목(林木)의 근계신장상황(根系伸張狀況)은 소나무는 40년(年)을 자라도 니암(泥岩)을 뚫고 생장(生長)하는 직근신장(直根伸張)은 15cm에 불과(不過)하나 곰솔은 23cm까지 주근(主根)이 신장(伸張)할 수가 있으므로 소나무보다 해송의 직근(直根) 신장력(伸張力)이 강(强)하다. 측근전장(側根全長)은 소나무에서 20m 해송에서 13m이였고, 아까시아나무는 식재당시(植栽當時)에 길이에서 더밑으로 암석을 뚫지 못하고 측근(側根)만 발달(發達)하여 비교적(比較的) 수분(水分)이 보지(保持)되는 소나무밑으로 신장(伸張)하는 것이 통례(通例)이였으며, 니암잔적토(泥岩殘積土)에서는 8~10년(年)만에 고사(枯死)되고 만다. 한편 소나무의 수형(樹型)은 편편상(偏偏狀)인데 해송은 삼각형(三角形)에 수형(樹型)을 이루고 있는 것이 특이하다. 이상(以上)의 사실(事實)을 종합(綜合)하면 인공(人工) 조림시(造林時) 충분(充分)한 식혈(植穴)을 파주지 않으면 임목(林木) 생육(生育)이 어려우므로 충분(充分)한 식혈(植穴)과 비료(肥料)를 시용(施用)하여야만 니암지대(泥岩地帶) 황폐림지(荒廢林地)를 복구(復舊)할수 있을것이다.

목적: 각막곡률계(keratometer) 측정값을 기준으로 분류된 난시량에 의해 피팅(fitting)하였을 때 RGP 렌즈의 중심 안정위치가 각막 지형도 검사(corneal topography) 측정값을 기준으로 각막 난시를 분류하여 전체 각막 난시를 고려하였을 때 어떻게 달라지는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 직난시를 가진 20~30대 남녀 19명 38안에게 각막곡률계 측정값으로 분류한 각막 난시량에 따라 9.9 mm 직경의 비구면 RGP 렌즈를 피팅한 후 초고속 촬영장치를 이용하여 각막에서 렌즈의 중심안정위치를 측정하였다. 또한 각막 지형도 검사에 의해 측정된 전체 각막 난시량을 기준으로 하였을 때와 각막의 가장 가파른 부분의 위치와 렌즈의 중심안정위치 관계를 비교하였다. 결과: 직난시안에서는 중심부 각막 난시값과 각막 전체 난시값의 차이가 있을 때에 RGP 렌즈의 중심 안정 위치에는 변화가 없었다. 각막지형도 검사를 이용하여 각막에서 가장 가파른(steep) 위치와 RGP 렌즈의 중심안정위치와의 관계를 알아보았을 때 각막에서 가장 가파른 위치와 RGP 렌즈의 수직방향에서의 중심안정위치가 일치하는 경우는 52.3%였으며, 두 위치가 일치하지 않는 경우의 대부분은 각막의 가파른 부분이 윗방향인데 반하여 렌즈의 중심안정위치는 아랫방향인 경우였다. 각막의 가장 가파른 위치와 렌즈의 수평방향에서의 중심안정위치가 일치하는 경우는 65.6%였으며, 이들 두 위치가 일치하지 않는 경우의 76.9%는 각막의 가장 가파른 부분의 곡률반경과 플랫(flat)한 부분의 곡률반경 차이가 0.05 mm 이하로 작았다. 결론: 본 연구에서는 RGP 렌즈의 중심안정위치는 중심부 각막 난시와 전체 각막 난시의 차이에 의해 영향을 받지 않으며 오히려 각막의 지형이 더 중요할 수 있다는 것을 밝혔다.

A comprehensive numerical study is carried out to investigate for the understanding of the flow evolution and flame development in a supersonic combustor with normal injection of ncumally injecting hydrogen in airsupersonic flows. The formulation treats the complete conservation equations of mass, momentum, energy, and species concentration for a multi-component chemically reacting system. For the numerical simulation of supersonic combustion, multi-species Navier-Stokes equations and detailed chemistry of H2-Air is considered. It also accommodates a finite-rate chemical kinetics mechanism of hydrogen-air combustion GRI-Mech. 2.11[1], which consists of nine species and twenty-five reaction steps. Turbulence closure is achieved by means of a k-two-equation model (2). The governing equations are spatially discretized using a finite-volume approach, and temporally integrated by means of a second-order accurate implicit scheme (3-5).The supersonic combustor consists of a flat channel of 10 cm height and a fuel-injection slit of 0.1 cm width located at 10 cm downstream of the inlet. A cavity of 5 cm height and 20 cm width is installed at 15 cm downstream of the injection slit. A total of 936160 grids are used for the main-combustor flow passage, and 159161 grids for the cavity. The grids are clustered in the flow direction near the fuel injector and cavity, as well as in the vertical direction near the bottom wall. The no-slip and adiabatic conditions are assumed throughout the entire wall boundary. As a specific example, the inflow Mach number is assumed to be 3, and the temperature and pressure are 600 K and 0.1 MPa, respectively. Gaseous hydrogen at a temperature of 151.5 K is injected normal to the wall from a choked injector.A series of calculations were carried out by varying the fuel injection pressure from 0.5 to 1.5MPa. This amounts to changing the fuel mass flow rate or the overall equivalence ratio for different operating regimes. Figure 1 shows the instantaneous temperature fields in the supersonic combustor at four different conditions. The dark blue region represents the hot burned gases. At the fuel injection pressure of 0.5 MPa, the flame is stably anchored, but the flow field exhibits a high-amplitude oscillation. At the fuel injection pressure of 1.0 MPa, the Mach reflection occurs ahead of the injector. The interaction between the incoming air and the injection flow becomes much more complex, and the fuel/air mixing is strongly enhanced. The Mach reflection oscillates and results in a strong fluctuation in the combustor wall pressure. At the fuel injection pressure of 1.5MPa, the flow inside the combustor becomes nearly choked and the Mach reflection is displaced forward. The leading shock wave moves slowly toward the inlet, and eventually causes the combustor-upstart due to the thermal choking. The cavity appears to play a secondary role in driving the flow unsteadiness, in spite of its influence on the fuel/air mixing and flame evolution. Further investigation is necessary on this issue. The present study features detailed resolution of the flow and flame dynamics in the combustor, which was not typically available in most of the previous works. In particular, the oscillatory flow characteristics are captured at a scale sufficient to identify the underlying physical mechanisms. Much of the flow unsteadiness is not related to the cavity, but rather to the intrinsic unsteadiness in the flowfield, as also shown experimentally by Ben-Yakar et al. [6], The interactions between the unsteady flow and flame evolution may cause a large excursion of flow oscillation. The work appears to be the first of its kind in the numerical study of combustion oscillations in a supersonic combustor, although a similar phenomenon was previously reported experimentally. A more comprehensive discussion will be given in the final paper presented at the colloquium.

최근 국립중앙박물관이 기증을 받아 "우리 강산을 그리다: 화가의 시선, 조선시대 실경산수화" 특별전(2019년)에서 처음으로 공개한 작품인 <경포대도>와 <총석정도>는 조선시대 회화사 이해에 있어 시사하는 바가 매우 지대하다. 두 작품이 1557년의 관동 유람을 계기로 그려진 병풍의 일부였음을 알 수 있어서 16세기 산수화에 대한 이해의 폭을 넓히는 데 획기적인 자료가 되기 때문이다. 이러한 중요성을 밝히기 위해서 본고에서는 <경포대도>와 <총석정도>에 담긴 경물의 내용을 살펴보고 제작시기와 양식상의 특징을 분석한 후, 다른 작품과의 비교를 통해서 이 작품에 담긴 회화사적인 의미에 대해서 살펴보았다. 이 작품의 제작 배경은 <총석정도>의 발문으로 알 수 있다. 본고에서 박충간(朴忠侃)(?~1601)으로 비정한 정상일로(商山逸老)가 1557년 봄에 홍연(洪淵)(?~?)과 함께 금강산(풍악산)과 관동 지역을 유람하고 유산록(遊山錄)을 작성하였으며 시간이 흐른 뒤 그중 몇몇 명승지를 그려 병풍을 만든 것을 알 수 있었다. 홍연은 자가 덕원(德遠)으로 1551년에 별시문과에 급제하고 1584년까지는 생존했던 인물이다. 박충간은 호가 남애(南崖)로서 1589년 정여립(鄭汝立)의 모역을 고변하여, 그 공으로 형조참판으로 승진되고 평난공신(平難功臣) 1등에 책록된 후 상산군(商山君)에 봉해진 인물이다. 이 글로 작품의 제작 시기를 1557년의 유람 후이자, 발문을 쓴 박충간이 50대 이상이 되는, 1571년 이후 곧 16세기 후반경으로 보았다. 산수나 나무 표현 등의 화풍을 기준으로도 16세기 후반의 시대 양식과 부합한다. 전술한 발문의 내용으로 <경포대도>와 <총석정도>가 병풍의 일부였던 것을 알수 있으며, 발문이 써 있는 <총석정도>가 마지막 폭이었을 것으로 생각된다. <경포대도>를 보면 구도면에서 조선 초기 안견파(安堅派) 산수화에서 볼 수 있는 편파(偏頗) 3단 구도의 요소를 찾을 수 있으나 실경(實景)을 대상으로 하여 그 배치와 화법이 현실화된 양상을 볼 수 있다. 시점(視點)에 있어서도 여러 경물간의 관계나 경관의 특징이 효과적으로 표현되도록 사선각(斜線角)의 부감시(俯瞰視), 정면시(正面視) 등을 활용하여 경포대의 넓은 영역을 효과적으로 표현하는 다각적(多角的)인 관점(觀點)을 보여준다. 산의 형태나 태점(苔點)의 사용은 1557년작 <의순관영조도(義順館迎詔圖)>(서울대학교 규장각한국학연구원 소장)와 매우 유사하다. 16세기 안견파의 특징인 짧은 선이나 점으로 질감을 내는 단선점준(短線點皴)과 구름 모양 운두준(雲頭皴)은 현장감 있게 변모되었다. 조선 초기 산수화의 전통적인 구도와 연결성을 찾을 수 있는 <경포대도>와 달리 <총석정도>는 그 구도가 매우 파격적이다. 화면에 중심축을 두고 돌기둥들이 첩첩이 도열하여 삼각형을 이루고 있는 데 근경(近景)의 돌기둥, 중앙의 사선봉(四仙峯), 절벽 위의 사선정(四仙亭)을 삼단계 정도의 깊이감으로 배치하여 화면에 공간감을 조성하였다. 중앙의 사선봉이 화면의 대부분을 차지하며 압도적인 비중을 점하고 있으나 수직적인 돌기둥들이 유기적인 관계를 형성하지 못하고 분질적(分節的), 평면적(平面的)인 양상으로 그려져 아직 입체적이고 자연스러운 공간감을 조성하는 데에는 이르지 못하고 있다. 기둥의 아랫부분은 희게 하고 윗부분은 어둡게 하여 고원(高遠)의 상승감을 고조시키는 효과가 있는데 각 기둥을 묘사하는 준법을 보면 기둥으로 설정된 면에 담묵을 바르고 그 위에 농묵의 가는 선들을 그어 총석의 질감과 쪼개짐을 묘사하였다. 붓끝을 사선으로 누르며 수직으로 내려 긋고 있어서 부벽준(斧劈皴)의 초기적 양상을 보인다. 일관되게 보이는 이러한 흑백의 대조, 수직적 준법의 구사는 앞으로 전개될 절파계(浙派係) 화풍의 유행을 예시해준다. 한편 기둥의 윤곽 및 균열문이 각각 다 달라서 실제의 특징을 살리려고 한 것을 알 수 있다. 기둥 위에 올라앉은 새들의 묘사, 파도와 흰 거품의 표현 등에서 반복적인 붓질을 찾을 수가 없고 매우 생생한 묘사력을 볼 수 있다. 이러한 <경포대도>와 <총석정도>의 경물 배치는 이후 변화를 보인다. <경포대도>는 아래쪽에 죽도(竹島)를 두고 경포호를 넘어 위쪽에 위치한 경포대 건물과 오대산 일대를 올려보는 구도였다. 이러한 배치는 경포대를 화면 아래쪽에 두고 위쪽의 바다를 향하는 18세기 이래의 전형적인 구성과 차이를 보인다. 바다 쪽에서 총석을 바라보며 그린 <총석정도> 역시 이후의 작품에서는 내륙에서 바다를 향하는 것으로 관점의 변화를 보인다. 이러한 변화는 정선(鄭敾)(1676~1759)과 김홍도(金弘道)(1745~1806 이후)의 작품이 제작된 이후, 두 사람의 구도를 따라 관동도의 유형이 정착되는 것과 관련이 있다. 하지만 사라진 듯 했던 16세기 <경포대도>의 구도가 조선 말기 <강릉 경포대도>에서와 같이 민간 회화에서 전승된 것도 확인해 볼 수 있다. 관동 지역의 명승도는 이른 시기부터 그려져 고려 김생(金生)(711~?)의 관동도(關東圖), 조선 초 안견(安堅)(15세기 활동)의 낙산사도(洛山寺圖) 등 여러 화가가 단폭이거나 여러 폭의 관동도를 병풍이나 첩 형태로 그렸던 것을 문헌으로 확인할 수 있다. 이처럼 기록은 많으나 이를 증명할 수 있는 작품이 없었는데 본고에서 고찰하는 이 두 점은 현존하는 관동도 중 연대가 가장 올라가는 예로 기록으로만 남아 있는 관동도(關東圖) 병풍(屛風)의 제작 양상을 알게 해주어 회화사적인 의미가 크다. 특히 발문의 내용에 따라 8폭 병풍일 것으로 생각되어 16세기 후반에 이미 관동팔경도(關東八景圖) 형식이 형성되었음을 알 수 있다. 그 성격에 있어서 현존하는 16세기 실경산수화의 예로 거론되는 작품들이 모두 실용적, 공적인 목적의 계회도나 기록화로 제작되어 실경산수화적 요소가 부분적으로 나타난 것과 달리 이 작품은 실제 경관을 대상으로 자연의 변화무쌍함과 아름다움을 담고자 하는 것이 일차적인 목적이었다는 점이 주목된다. 발문을 쓴 박충간은 유람할 때 지었던 감상시를 곁들여 자연의 진면목을 반추하는 태도를 보인다. 이 점은 기존에 알려진 실경산수화의 성격과 그 양상을 달리하는 것으로 순수 감상을 목적으로 한 본격적인 실경산수화의 예라는 점에서 그 중요성이 높다. 이처럼 <경포대도>와 <총석정도>의 두 작품은 유람의 결과를 시화(詩畫)로 제작하였다는 역사적 사실을 현존 작품으로 확인할 수 있는 가장 이른 예라는 점에서 그 의미가 지대하다. 또한 그간 확인할 수 없었던 16세기 실경 산수화의 다양한 형태와 구도 및 시점의 면모를 보여주어 한국 실경산수화에 대한 이해의 폭을 확장한 점에서도 그 중요성이 매우 크다.

치근활택술만 시행한 군과 치근활택술후 테트라사이클린 25, 50, 75, 100, 150mg/ml 농도로 5분간 처리한 군 사이에 치근면에서의 치주인대세포에 대한 증식 및 전개에 미치는 효과를 비교하기 위해 심한 치주질환으로 이환된 치아를 발치하여 철저한 치근활택술을 시행한 후 치주질환에 이환된 치근면만을 이용하여 치근절편을 제작하였다. 5분간 절편을 각 농도별로 침수시킨 후 세포증식률을 알아보기 위해 각 절편을 24 well 조직배양기에 넣고 $1{\times}10^5$개의 치주인대세포를 가진 배양액 1ml씩을 넣어 6시간동안 배양 후, 새로운 배양기에 옮기고 24, 48, 72시간동안 배양하여 0.05% trypsin/0.02% EDTA로 처리하고 세포를 분리하여 광학위상차현미경을 이용하여 세포수를 측정하고 단위치근면적당 세포수를 계산하였다, 세포증식률의 실험에서는 24, 48, 72시간 모두에서 치근활택술군, 테트라사이클린 25, 150, 50, 75, 100mg/ml 처리군 순으로 세포 수가 증가함을 보였으며 각 군 모두에서도 시간경과에 따라 부착세포수도 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 24시간에서는 치근활택술군과 테트라사이클린 75mg/ml, 100mg/ml 처리군 사이, 48시간에서는 치근활택술군과 테트라사이클린 100mg/ml 처리군 사이, 72시간에서는 치근활택술군과 테트라사이클린 50, 75, 100mg/ml와 테트라사이클린 25mg/ml와 100mg/ml 사이에 통계학적으로 유의성을 보였다(p<0.05). 전반적으로 치근활택술군보다 테트라사이클린으로 처리한 치근면 특히 농도 100mg/ml 처리군에서 좋은 세포증식률을 보였으며 150mg/ml에서는 100mg/ml 처리군에 비해 세포 증식률이 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 주사전자현미경 관찰에서는 세포배양 30분 후에는 치근활택술군에서는 세포외형이 전반적으로 구형을 보이면서 부착된 양상을 보였고 테트라사이클린 처리군에서는 세포질이 방사형으로 약간 확장되고 중간부는 소기포로 덮히고 둥글게 보였다. 세포수에 있어서도 테트라사이클린 처리군이 더 많이 부착되어 있는 양상을 나타내었고 상아세관의 노출도 관찰할 수 있었다. 세포배양 6시간이 경과한 후 세포는 치근활택술군에서는 세포질이 방사형으로 확장되어 보이고, 테트라사이클린 처리군에서는 세포의 변연일부가 함몰되어 극성을 나타내기 시작했다. 세포배양 24시간이 경과한 후 치근활택술군에서는 세포가 뚜렷한 극성을 보이고 테트라사이클린 처리군에서는 조금 더 신장된 방추형을 보였다. 이상의 연구 결과, 치주인대세포의 전개는 치근면을 테트라사이클린으로 처리시 테트라사이클린 l00mg/ml 처리군이 50mg/ml 처리군보다 초기에는 약간 더 진전된 양상을 보였으나 시간이 경과함에 따라 거의 유사하게 나타났으며, 치근활택술군보다는 우수하게 진행되었고, 세포증식률에서는 테트라사이클린 100mg/ml 처리군이 가장 많은 세포수를 보였으므로 임상적용시에는 테트라사이클린 100mg/ml가 적절할 것으로 사료된다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert.

To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed.
