Most interdigital neuroma can be diagnosed clinically. But, diagnostic local injection method, sonography and magnetic resonance image(MRI) have been used as secondary tests for clinical confirmation or surgery. Recently, there have been active discussions on the method of interdigital neuroma diagnosis for which sonography or MRI is used. For finding out the location or the number of interdigital neuroma particularly in non-typical clinical manifestation or surgery, MRIs, which are exellent in tissue contrast, may be quite helpful. This case had an interdigital neuroma showing non-typical manifestation. MRIs were used for clinical diagnostic confirmation and finding out the location and the number of interdigital neuroma. Thus, the validity along with literary consideration is being reported.

Purpose: We examined the relationship of interdigital neuroma occurring site and the surrounding structures, including the deep transverse metatarsal ligament (DTML) by cadaver study and clinical results. Materials and Methods: Seventeen fresh frozen cadavers study were done to evaluate the relationship of interdigital neuroma occuring site and the DTML at two phase of the gait cycle with 60 degree of metatarsophalangeal dorsiflexion and with 15 degrees of ankle dorsiflexion. We measured the distance from interdigital nerve bifurcation of the common digital nerve to anterior margin of the DTML and longitudinal length of DTML itself. Clinically, we checked the location of interdigital neuroma and DTML length during surgery in 32 feet. Results: In the second and third web space, the mean distance from bifurcation of the common digital nerve of foot to the anterior margin of DTML was 16.7 mm, 15.1 mm in the mid-stance position, and 15.9 mm. 14.6 mm in heel-off position. Second, Third web space ligament itself length were average 12.8 mm, 10.6 mm. Clinically, all of the cases of interdigital neuroma started at the bifurcation area of the common digital nerve and interdigital neuroma was average 7.5 mm (range; 6-11 mm). Conclusion: Interdigital neuroma were located more distally than DTML in both the mid-stance and heel off stage. The main lesion was located between metatarsal head and metatarsophalangeal joint and more distal than the DTML anterior margin.

Morton's neuroma has been treated with resection of the enlarged interdigital nerve by most of surgeons, but the numbness after resection could bother the patients. We reported the experiences of the good results after treatment of Morton's neuroma with the decompression of the interdigital nerve. Three patients, 4 feet were diagnosed to Morton's neuroma and taken the surgery, decompression of the interdigital nerve after the conservative treatments. The decompression can be considered first as another choice of treatment for interdigital neuroma before resection of the nerve.

본 논문에서는 complementary 나선형 공진 구조와 인터디지털 구조 기반의 메타물질 전송 선로가 전압 제어 발진기의 위상 잡음을 줄이기 위해서 제안되었다. 이와 같은 메타물질 전송 선로는 접지 면에 식각된 complementary 나선형 공진 구조의 배열과 신호 면의 인터디지털 전송 선로를 적용하여 구현되었다. 신호 면의 인터디지털 전송 선로는 인터디지털 구조가 없는 일반적인 전송 선로보다 더 높은 공진 Q 특성을 얻기 위해서 사용되었다. 제안된 메타물질 전송 선로의 공진 특성과 Q 특성의 고유 포화 특성이 신호 면의 전송 선로의 폭, complementary 나선형 공진 구조의 크기, complementary 나선형 공진 구조 사이의 전류 방향, complementary 나선형 공진 구조의 단위 셀 쌍의 수를 변화시킴으로써, 그리고 인터디지털 구조의 유무에 의해서 분석되어졌다. 제안된 전압 제어 발진기의 위상 잡음과 주파수 조절 범위는 -127.50~-125.33 dBc/Hz @ 100 kHz와 5.744~5.852 GHz이다.

Interdigital tissue regression is one of the most well-known examples of embryonic programmed cell death, providing the mechanism behind separation of developing digits. Caspases have been shown to play a key part in this process, with activated caspase-3 localized between the developing digits. In caspase-3 knock-out adult mice, however, the digits are completely separated with no webbing. In other mutants with defects in the apoptotic machinery, such as Apaf1 deficient mice, interdigital tissue regression is initially inhibited but the webbing eventually disappears as alternative/additional cell death mechanisms step in. In order to investigate whether a similar temporal effect occurs after loss of caspase-3, we have used an in vitro approach to inhibit caspase-3 at specific times during digit separation. Previous limb explant culture approaches have encountered problems with proper limb development in culture, and thus a modified technique was used. The new approach enables detailed observation of the effects of caspase-3 inhibition on interdigital regression. Using these methods, we show that caspase-3 inhibition caused a delay in the loss of interdigital tissue compared with control explants, similar to that observed in Apaf1 mutant mice. Along with immunohistochemistry, active caspase-3 positive cells of the interdigital vs. digital regions were measured by flow cytometry. Notably, activated caspase-3 in vivo was found not only in the interdigital mesenchyme but also in the TUNEL negative digit region, supporting a role for caspase-3 in nonapoptotic events.

For the purpose of developing capacitive humidity sensor having interdigital electrodes, interdigital electrode was modeled and simulated to obtain capacitance and sensitivity as a function of geometric parameters like the structural gap and thickness. For the development of ASIC, switched capacitor signal processing circuits for capacitive humidity sensor were designed and simulated by Cadence using $0.25{\mu}m$ CMOS process parameters. The signal processing circuits are composed of amplifier for voltage gain control, and clock generator for sensor driving and switch control. The characteristics of the fabricated sensors are; 1) sensitivity is 9fF/%R.H., 2) temperature coefficient of offset(TCO) is $0.4%R.H./^{\circ}C$, 3) nonlinearity is 1.2%FS, 4) hysteresis is 1.5%FS in humidity range of $3%R.H.{\sim}98%R.H.$. The response time is 50 seconds in adsorption and 70 seconds in desorption. Fabricated process used in this capacitive humidity sensor having interdigital electrode are just as similar as conventional IC process technology. Therefore this can be easily mass produced with low cost, simple circuit and utilized in many applications for both industrial and environmental measurement and control system, such as monitoring system of environment, automobile, displayer, IC process room, and laboratory etc.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a microstrip directional coupler that has high directivity at 2.14 GHz. To design coupler that has high directivity, we used interdigital capacitors instead of lumped elements. The measured results show the diretivity is higher than 30 dB at 2.14 GHz.
