Purpose: This study was done to know the usefulness of fractal analysis when evaluating the radiologic changes after decompression on jaw bone cystic lesions using fractal analysis. Materials and methods: 30cases of cystic lesions were followed up after decompression. Panoramic image was used to observe radiologic changes around the cystic lesion. The part of the panoramic image which showed radiologic change was defined as region of interest(ROI); The fractal dimension of the ROI was calculated using box-counting method. Results: Using sign-rank test, there was a statistically significant difference in fractal dimensions after decompression therapy(P<0.0001). The fractal dimensions statistically increased after decompression(the median of D:0.12). Conclusions: The ROI after decompression showed higher fractal dimensions which offer the objective proof of the bone healing around cystic lesions after decompression treatment.

In this paper, MIlS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemnted 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.

많은 의료영상 시스템에서 의료 볼륨 데이터는 압축된 형태로 저장되어 있으며, 압축된 데이터는 가시화 이전에 압축 복원을 수행해야 한다. 압축 복원은 상당한 시간이 소모되기 때문에 본 연구는 삼차원 의료영상의 고속 복원 방식을 제안한다. 제안 방법은 의료영상의 특수성에 대한 사용자 요구를 감안하여, 손실과 무손실 압축을 모두 제공하며 점진적 개선(progressive refinement) 복원 속성을 갖는다. 그리고 그래픽스처리장치(GPU)를 이용한 병렬화를 수행하여 매우 짧은 시간 내에 압축 복원이 수행된다. 마지막으로 압축 복원과 볼륨 가시화를 연계하여 선택적 압축 복원 방법이 가능하며, 이를 통하여 볼륨 압축 복원의 추가적 성능 향상을 얻었다.

A multimedia remote ultrasound image transfer system for tole-medical services was implemented. The image data of the ultrasound scanner system of the slave is compressed using image compression system. It is transferred to the master PC via ISDN UNI(User-Network Interface) and decompressd by image decompression system. The total system is composed of three parts; first, the image capture card which transfers bidirection- al data between ultrasound scanner system and PC, second, image compression and decompression card, finally, ISDN TA(Terminal Adaptor) card for transferring the image. This system has a easy user interface because it is executed on the basis of MS-WINDOWS. So it is capable of serving medical services at a remote place.

For the effective management of medical images, it becomes popular to use computing machines in medical practice, namely PACS. However, the amount of image data is so large that there is a lack of storage space. We usually use data compression techniques to save storage, but the process speed of machines is not fast enough to meet surgical requirement. So a special hardware system processing medical images faster is more important than ever. To meet the demand for high speed image processing, especially image compression and decompression, we designed and implemented the medical image CODEC (COder/DECoder) based on MISD (Multiple Instruction Single Data stream) architecture to adopt parallelism in it. Considering not being a standard scheme of medical image compression/decompression, the CODEC is designed programable and general. In this paper, we use JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) algorithm to process images and evalutate the CODEC.

JPEG은 가장 널리 사용되는 이미지 압축 표준 기술이다. 본 논문에서는 JPEG 이미지 압축 알고리즘을 소개하고 압축 및 압축 해제의 각 단계를 서술하고자 한다. 이미지 압축은 디지털 이미지를 데이터 압축을 적용하는 과정이다. 이산코사인변환은 시간 도메인에서 주파수 도메인으로 변환하는 기술이다. 먼저, 이미지는 8 by 8 픽셀 블록으로 분할하게 된다. 둘째, 위에서 아래로 왼쪽에서 오른쪽으로 진행하면서 DCT가 각각의 블록에 적용하게 된다. 셋째, 각 블록은 양자화를 통해 압축을 진행한다. 넷째, 이미지를 구성하는 압축된 블록의 행렬은 크게 줄어든 공간에 저장된다. 끝으로, 원하는 경우 이미지는 역이산코사인변환(IDCT)을 사용하는 프로세스인 압축 해제를 통해 재구성하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이산코사인변환 기법을 이용해 이미지 압축/복원 및 재구성하는 것에 목적을 두고 있다.

Microvascular decompression is a very effective and relatively safe surgical modality in the treatment of hemifacial spasm. But rare debilitating complications have been reported such as cranial nerve dysfunctions. We have experienced a very rare case of unilateral soft palate palsy without the involvement of vocal cord following microvascular decompression. A 33-year-old female presented to our out-patient clinic with a history of left hemifacial spasm for 5 years. On postoperative 5th day, patient started to exhibit hoarsness with swallowing difficulty. Symptoms persisted despite rehabilitation. Various laboratory work up with magnetic resonance image showed no abnormal lesions. Two years after surgery patient showed complete recovery of unitaleral soft palate palsy. Various etiologies of unilateral soft palate palsy are reviewed as the treatment and prognosis differs greatly on the cause. Although rare, it is important to keep in mind that such complication could occur after microvascular decompression.

In this paper, we describe implementation of efficient wavelet image compression and decompression system for DVR(Digital Video Recoder). We used various methods to remove time redundancy, spatial redundancy and statistical redundancy of video camera inputs. Motion detection, wavelet transform, RLC(Run Length Coding) and huffman coding techniques are combined for efficient compression / decompression.

Due to development of internet network environments and data compression techniques, the size and amount of multimedia data has greatly increased. They are compressed before transmission or storage. Dealing with these compressed data such as video retrieval or indexing requires decompression procedure in most cases. This causes additional computations and increases the processing time. In various applications a histogram is one of the most frequently used tools. Efficiency of extracting such histograms will drop down if decompression is involved. We propose a novel scheme for extracting histograms from images that are transformed into the compressed domain by 8x8 DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform). In this scheme an averaged version of original image is obtained by a simple linear combination of DCT coefficients with the sets of coefficients we designed.
