  • 몬테칼로 모사를 이용하여 베타선으로부터 발생되는 제동복사선과 이로 인해 받는 선량을 비교 분석 하고자 하였으며, 방사선 차폐에 이용하는 납치마를 이용하여 실제 I-131 치료병실에서 발생되는 방사선의 감쇠정도를 비교하고자 하였다. 몬테칼로 모사를 이용하여 납 또는 물로 구성된 차폐체를 설정하여 베타선의 상호작용에 대한 스펙트럼을 분석하였으며, 납치마를 기준으로 0.25 mm 와 0.5 mm의 납 설정과 물 0.1 mm 와 0.2 mm를 설정하여 납만을 이용한 차폐방법과 물과 납을 두 가지를 이용한 차폐실험을 진행하였다. 실험 결과 납 두께 0.5 mm로 차폐 시 선량이 물과 납을 이용한 2차 차폐 방법을 사용했을 때와 유사하게 나타났으며, 납 0.25 mm 만을 사용했을 때 차폐효과가 다소 낮았지만, 납 차폐체가 없는 때의 선량에 비해 약 60% 감소효과를 나타냈다.

  • 국내 의료기관의 방사성옥소(I-131) 사용과 관련하여 배수 중 방사능농도가 원자력안전법의 허용치를 초과한 사례가 발견되어, 원인 분석 및 배수 중 방사능농도 분석을 통해 주변 환경 공공수역에 대한 관계를 평가하여 유용성에 대해 알아보고자 한다. 2014년 11월 1일부터 2015년 4월 30일까지 6개월에 걸쳐 국내 20개 병원을 대상으로 하였다. 장비는 HpGe 감마선 분광 측정기(Canberra DSA1000)를 사용하였으며, 분석방법으로는 GENIE-2000 Analysis을 이용하여 방사성옥소의 배수 중 방사능농도를 측정하여 비교 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 7개 기관이 I-131 배수 중 배출관리 기준을 초과하였음을 확인하였으며, 20개 병원의 평균 배수 중 방사능 농도는 $4.21E+4 Bq/m^3$로 나타났다. 방사능농도가 높은 병원의 특징으로는 I-131을 이용한 다수의 외래환자 진료 건수, 외래전용 화장실의 부재로 확인되었다. I-131 whole body scan 전 반드시 소변을 보게 하는 과정에서 체내에 잔류한 I-131이 배출되는 것으로 판단된다. 공공수역 내 배수 중 방사능 농도가 초과 검출되는 원인으로는 진료용 방사성옥소라 판단되며, 저용량 투여환자 외래전용 화장실 설치와 안전관리 지침서 제공 및 교육 강화의 중요성을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 배수 중 배출관리기준과 관련하여 법적, 제도적 관리 체계 구축이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

  • To clarify the hematologic effects of the radioiodine ($^{131}I$) in therapeutic doses ($5{\sim}10$ mCi) on the various thyroid patients, authors studied the peripheral blood pictures of 396 goitrous patients before and after radioiodine ($^{131}I$) administrations in the Isotope Clinic of Seoul National University Hospital. Among these 396 cases of goiters, we gave 5 to 10 mCi of radioiodine ($^{131}I$) with single or fractionated administrations. The blood pictures of peripheral blood were repeated after 3 months in 40 cases of 65 cases who had been treated with $^{131}I$. The blood pictures of non-treated thyroid patients were compared with that of normal Korean values to clarify any difference between normal and goiter. The blood pictures of hyperthyroid patients treated with $^{131}I$ therapy were compared with the blood pictures of non-treated thyroid patients. The results were as following: 1) The incidence according to type: Toxic diffuse goiter: 35.4% Nontoxic nodular goiter: 29.7% Euthyroid: 13.8% Nontoxic diffuse goiter: 12.6% Hypothyroidism: 4.3% Thyroiditis($\bar{s}$ subacute form): 1.8% Toxic nodular goiter: 1.4% Malignancy: 1.0% 2) Age incidence: The range of distribution was 11 to 71 years. The peak incidence was found in the 4th decade of life. $80.6{\sim}82.6%$ of those 396 cases were found among the 3rd, 4th and the 5th decades of life. 3) Sex incidence: Sex ratio of male:female was 1:7.8. 4) The most outstanding findings in peripheral blood before treatment were decreased erythrocyte count and hemoglobin value in all types of thyroid diseases, especially in. the cases of hypothyroidism and thyroiditis. Hook worm-infested patients showed no significant difference in erythrocytes and hemoglobin values from those of other hook worm free patients. 5) Total leukocytes count was within normal range. Differential count of W.B.C. showed increased percentile of lymphocyte in diffuse toxic goiter and thyroiditis. 6) 39 cases of diffuse goiter treated with $^{131}I$ toxic showed amelioration in the anemia and restoration to normal range of lymphocyte count in association with increased percentile of neutrophiles 3 months after administration, except a case of toxic nodular goiter. One can observe anemia in slight degree, and increased lymphocytes count in hypothyroidism. Therapeutic dose of radioiodine ($^{131}I$) does not result any residual effect on the hematopoietic function. Radioiodine ($^{131}I$) therapy resulted in improvement of thyroid function in association of amelioration of pevious abnormal blood pictures. 7) Authors did not observe any myxedema resulted from radioiodine therapy during the 3 months period in this study.

  • Radioactive iodine treatment has been widely used for nearly 50 years in the treatment of thyroid cancer to ablate residual thyroid tissue after thyroidectomy and to treat metastatic disease. Leukemia is a rare complication associated with the radioactive iodine therapy. The occurrence of leukemia is known to be related to the cumulative dosage of I-131 more than 37 GBq (1 Ci) and also associated with the intervals of less than 12 months between the repeated doses. We report a case of a 52 year-old female patient with papillary cancer of thyroid who developed acute myelogenous leukemia after the total 20.4 GBq (550 mCi) of I-131 therapy over 3.2 years and palliative radiation therapy (3000 cGy) due to multiple bone metastasis of papillary cancer.

  • The effects of iodocasein, tapazole, and diethylstilbestrol in the thyroidal activity of chicken were tested. Iodocasein and tapazole were mixed with basal ration at the levels of 0.17 and 0.01 per cent respectively and were fed to one-weeks-old chicken for two months. Six milligrams of diethylstilbestrol were implanted in the subcutaneous tissue. Subsequently 10 uci of radioactive iodine $I^{131}$ were injected intramuscularly into each of the chicken to measure the thyroidal activities of the chicken one month after the treatment was started. The results obtained were as follows: 1) The thyroidal uptake of $I^{131}$ was not observed in the iodocasein group 2) The highest thyroidal uptake rates of I were shown twelve hours after the injection in the all groups except the iodocasein group. 3) The higher thyroidal uptake rates of I were observed in the female chicken than in the male chicken(P<0.01) of the control and the tapazole groups. However, the significant difference between the two sexes was not found in the diethylstilbestrol group. 4) Tapazole at the level of 0.01 per cent of the basal ration of the chicken increased the thyroidal activity slightly.

  • The object of this research is to estimate the hardenability of quenched carbon steels AISI 1050. The equation of transient heat conduction was analyzed to derive cooling curve by finite element method. The effects of temperature on physical properties, metallic structures and the latent heat by phase transformation were considered. A good agreement was found between analytical and experimental results to show that the proposed numerical procedure was reliable. This procedure could be used as the detabase for optimal condition of heat treatment cycle.
