  • Purpose: This study is to evaluate the efficacy of the CBCT and EXACTRAC the image on the spine stereotactic body radiation treatment. Materials and Methods: The study compared the accuracy of the dose distribution for changes in the real QA phantom for The shape of the body of the phantom was performed. Novalis treatment artificially set up at the center and to the right, on the Plan 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm in front 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm and upwards 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm and $0.5^{\circ}$ by moving side to side Exactrac error correction and error values of CBCT and plan changes on the dose distribution were recorded and analyzed. Results: Cubic Phantom of the experimental error, the error correction Exactrac X-ray 6D Translation in the direction of the 0.18 mm, Rotation direction was $0.07^{\circ}$. Translation in the direction of the 3D CBCT 0.15 mm Rotation direction was $0.04^{\circ}$. DVH dose distribution using the results of the AP evaluate the change in the direction of change was greatest when moving. Conclusion: ExacTrac image-guided radiation therapy with a common easy and fast to get pictures from all angles, from the advantage of CBCT showed a potential alternative. But every accurate information compared with CT treatment planning and treatment of patients with more accurate than the CBCT ExacTrac the location provided. Changes in the dose distribution in the experiment results show that the treatment of spinal SBRT set up some image correction due to errors at the target and enter the spinal cord dose showed that significant differences appear.

  • According to Edwin Gordon(1987, 1997, 2003), music aptitude is a product of interaction of innate potential and early environmental experiences. He referred to music aptitude of children up to nine years of age as developmental music aptitude which fluctuates due to musical environment. Music aptitude stabilizes at age nine, and the music aptitude after age nine is called "stabilized music aptitude". This research is to examine Gorden's hypothesis that the younger a child receives music education, the higher music aptitude. Also, this research is to experiment the effect of Audiation activities developed in Audie Music Curriculum on music aptitude. The researcher and another Audie teacher as a co-teacher guided children together for 30 minutes once a week. The pedagogy guidelines for informal guidance in music learning theory were kept throughout the classes. Also, Audie's teaching method which had been developed for Korean Kindergarten educational environment was also applied. Five-year-old subjects in Experimental group 1 experienced the Audie Music Curriculum of one year; five-year-old subjects in Experimental group 2 experienced it for two years. Primary Measures of Music Audiation was administered three times during their last year of Kindergarten. Subjects in the Control groups, one examined at the beginning and the other at the end of their last year in Kindergarten, received no Audie instruction. There was no significant difference in tonal aptitude, but there was significant difference in rhythmic aptitude(p< .05) among the experiemental groups. Because both Experimental groups showed statistical significance (p< .001) in the music aptitude increase during their academic years, the significant differences of the year-end music aptitude between control group and experimental groups were the expected result.

  • The ultimate goal of periodontal therapy is the regeneration of the periodontium that have been destroyed as a result of periodontal disease. This study were done in order to determine the healing status of periodontium under Polytetrafluoroethylene and millipore fillter combined with fibrin and the effect of the guided tissue regeneration procedures were performed as follows : 1) flap operation using PTFE membrane(control group) 2) flap operation using PTFE membrane which was fixed with fibrin(experimental group 1) 3) flap operation using millipore filter which was fixed with suture(experimental group II) 4) flap operation using millipore filter which was fixed with fibrin(experimental group II) After 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 weeks, dogs were sacrificed by perfusion technique and tissue block was excised including the tooth and prepared for light microscope with H-E & Masson’s trichrome staining. The result were as follows : In control and experimental group, there is no siginificant difference on epithelial cell down growth within 1st week, but more epithelial cell downgrowth in millipore or millipore combined with fibrin group. In this experiment, there were no significant difference in new cementum and alveolar bone formation whether PTFE membrane was fixed with suture or fibrin. In control and each experimental group, bone maturation appeared in 4 weeks, bone width increased bucco-lingually in control and experimental 1 group especially. Both control group and experimental group showed mild mew cementum formation on root surface and irregular arrangement of collagen fiber at 4 weeks, that showed obvious increased cementum formation at 8 weeks, and that was observed the functional arrangement of collagen fiber between new cementum and new alveolar bone at 12 weeks.

  • The purpose of this study was to design a teaching and learning method conductive to the development of creative thinking skills and investigate its effects. It has been developed integrated mind map with feature of visualizing the divergent thinking to the aspects of Science (S), Technology (T) & Engineering (E), Arts (A), Mathematics (M). Integrated mind map can be divided into four types of STEAM type, STEA type, STEM type, STE type depending on the category of key words in the first branch. And Integrated mind map can be divided into three levels of guided, intermediate, open depending on the teacher's guide degree. And also integrated mind map activities were carried out in the form of group, class share as well as individual. This study was implemented during a semester and students in experiment group experienced individual-integrated mind map activity 10 times, group-integrated mind map activity 10 times, class share-integrated mind map activity 3 times. The results indicated that the experimental group presented statistically meaningful improvement in creative thinking skills (p<.05). And there was a statistically meaningful improvement in fluency, flexibility, originality as a sub-category of creative thinking skills(p <.05). Also creative thinking skills are not affected by the level of cognitive, academic performance, gender (p<.05). In conclusion, it was found that 'integrated mind map activity' improved student's creative thinking skills. There was no interaction effect about creative thinking skills between the teaching strategy and cognitive level, achivement, gender of those students.
