DUPIC (Direct use of spent PWR fuel in CANDU reactors) nuclear fuel is a CANDU fuel fabricated remotely from spent PWR fuel materials in a hot cell. The soundness of the end closure welds of nuclear fuel elements is an important factor for the safety and performance of nuclear fuel. To evaluate the soundness of the end closure welds of DUPIC fuel element, a precise X-ray inspection system is developed using a micro-focus X-ray generator with an image intensifier and a real time camera system. The fuel elements made of Zircaloy-4 and stainless steel by an Nd:YAG laser welding and a TIG welding aye inspected by the developed inspection system. The soundness of the welds of the fuel elements was confirmed by the X-ray inspection process, and the irradiation test of DUPIC fuel elements has been successfully completed at the HANARO research reactor.

신경 외과적 수술의 한분야인 정위적 방사선 수술은 두 개강 내의 병변의 위치 계산 후, 고선량의 방사선을 조사하여 병변을 치료하는 방법이기 때문에, 효과적인 수술을 위해서는 병변의 정확한 위치 정보가 무엇보다도 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 DSA(Digital Subtraction Angiography) 영상이 내재적으로 이미지 왜곡이라는 문제점을 가지고 있기 때문에, 이것의 보정을 통하여 더욱 정확한 target 위치를 계산하였다 이미지 왜곡을 보정하기 위하여 grid 팬텀을 제작하였고, localization 알고리즘의 정확도를 평가하기 위하여, target 팬텀을 제작하였다. Image Intensifier의 앞쪽에 grid 팬텀을 부착하고, target 팬텀을 Leksell Frame에 고정시킨 후, DSA 영상을 얻었다. 본 실험을 위하여 개발된 프로그램을 이용하여, Anterior and Posterior, Left and Right 영상에서 bilinear transform을 적용하여 왜곡을 보정한 후, target 위치를 계산하였다. 그리고, 이와 같은 방법을 통하여 계산된 target 위치 좌표와 target 팬텀의 절대 좌표의 비교를 통하여 localization 오차가 계산되었다. 이번 실험의 결과는 왜곡을 보정하지 않은 경우, localization 오차는 $\pm$0.41mm, 왜곡 보정을 한 경우는 $\pm$0.34mm이었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 개발된 알고리즘 정밀도가 인정되며, 환자의 치료에 적합한 것으로 사료된다.

Amount of radiation exposure by seeing through fluoroscopy examination while is many patient exposure administration and unprepared misgovernment be. In this study, abdominal fluoroscopy during the scan, the dose and image quality change according to the use of grid and added filter optimized by measuring the test condition is proposed. Uses seeing through fluoroscopy examination equipment of Image Intensifier of Easy Diagnost Eleva (Philips), under tube type and uses Human phantom and measures average area dose according to grid insertion existence and nonexistence and added filter kind change. Measure sum of 29 organ dose and effective dose through PCXMC imagination simulation program and image J program through noise, SNR, image distortion was measured. Resolution, sharpness, and analyzed using the MTF curves. Fluorography the grid to insert the filter thickness and thickening and increased the average area dose and organ doses and effective dose. In the case of spot examination, when inserted grid, average area dose and organ dose and effective dose increased. Filter thickens the average area dose decreased, but the organ doses and effective dose were increased when use 0.2mmCu+1mmAl filter, decreased slightly. Noise and SNR measurements without inserting the gird, if you do not use the added filter was the lowest and when measure the distortion, 0.1mmCu+1mmAl filter was no difference of image quality in case insert grid was judged that when did not use occasion added filter that do not use grid, difference of image quality does not exist. Did not show a big difference, according to the grid and uses of the added filter sharpness, and resolution. Patient dose increases with factors that reduce the quality of the image so reckless grid and the use of the added filter when abdominal fluoroscopy examination should be cautious in using.

The use of diesel engines has recently increased due to the need for internal combustion engines with a high thermal efficiency and low harmful exhaust gas. The PCCI(premixed charged compression ignition) technology has been studied specifically to simultaneously reduce NOx and PM. While the PCCI means has the merit of reducing NOx and PM, control of the combustion phase is difficult. In this study, Flame visualization was then performed with an endoscope system in order to compare combustion flame characteristics in an commercial diesel engine.

Nuclear fuel elements containing dry recycling nuclear fuel pellets for the irradiation test in a reactor were remotely fabricated from spent PWR fuel materials in a hot cell. End closure welding as well as seal tube welding for thermal sensor of the elements was performed by Nd:YAG laser. The soundness of the end closure welds and seal tube welds for the elements were evaluated by a precise X-ray inspection system composed of a micro-focus X-ray generator with an image intensifier and a real time camera system. Then, helium leak test was performed for the elements. The soundness of the welds of the fuel elements was confirmed by the X-ray inspection and helium leak test. The irradiation test for the fuel elements were successfully completed at the HANARO research reactor.

The characteristics of leader development in rod -to- plane air gap (20cm gap length) under positive impulse potentials have been studied by means of 2-photomultiplier technique and image intensifier camera. It was shown that the streamers radiate relatively short wavelength light (${\sim}340nm$) while the leaders radiate a plenty of long wave length light ($400{\sim}800nm$). It was also known that the streamers propagate very fast with a velocity of $6{\times}l0^7cm/sec$ but the leaders have average velocity of $5{\times}10^6cm/sec$ and they proceed gradually fast by step-wise development.

Splanchnic nerve block is effective in relief of upper abdominal cancer pain. But we often get confused at the unexpected complaints of pain accompanying a metastatic of referred origin in spite of the precise block under image intensifier. We could found aut a thermographic change from the diffuse hyperemission state of abdomen before the block to the localized state after the block. It may be helpful in differentiating objectively the accuracy of the block at the unexpected complaints of pain by using thermography before and after the block.

Complete understanding of the exterior and interior structure of the tooth would be prerequisite to the successful clinical results, especially in the restorative and endodontic treatment. Although three-dimensional reconstruction method using x-ray microtomography could not be used in clinical cases, it may be the best way to reconstruct the morphologic characteristics of the tooth structure in detail without destructing the tooth itself. This study was done to three dimensionally reconstruct every teeth in the arch in order to increase the understanding about the endodontic treatment and to promote the effective restorative treatment by upgrading the knowledge of the tooth morphology. After placing tooth between the microfocus x-ray tube and the image intensifier to obtain two-dimensional images of each level. scanning was done under the condition of 80 keV, $100{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$, 16.8 magnification with the spot size of $8{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$. Cross-section pixel size of $16.28{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$ and 48.83 cross-section to cross-section distance were also used. From the results of this study, precise three dimensional reconstructed images of every teeth could be obtained. Furthermore, it was possible to see image that showed interested area only, for example. enamel portion only, pulp and dentin area without enamel structure, pulp only, combination image of enamel and pulp, etc. It was also possible to see transparent image without some part of tooth structure. This image might be used as a guide when restoring and preparing the full and partial crown by showing the positional and morphological relationship between the pulp and the outer tooth structure. Another profit may be related with the fact that it would promote the understanding of the interior structure by making observation of the auto-rotating image of AVI file from the various direction possible.
