본 연구에서는 황철석 암버럭으로 시공된 성토체를 대상으로 산성배수 발생을 억제하기 위하여 중화제를 주입할 경우 최적의 주입방안을 제시하고자 한다. 성토체 내에 중화제 주입으로 인한 침투효과를 수치해석으로 검토하기 위하여 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 수치해석을 위하여 중화제 주입관의 직경을 50mm로 선정하고 주입관의 간격을 1-4m, 주입압을 100-220kPa로 변화시키면서 침투해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과에 따르면 중화제의 주입관 간격 1.0m 및 주입압 130kPa인 경우와 주입관 간격 2.0m 및 주입압 160kPa인 경우가 상대적으로 낮은 주입압에서 성토체 전체의 포화 도달시간이 빠른 것으로 나타났다. 그리고, 성토체 전체의 포화를 위한 중화제 주입관의 간격은 3m인 경우 130kPa에서 190kPa까지 다양한 주입압을 적용할 수 있으며, 성토체의 포화 도달시간은 주입압에 상관없이 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 경제성을 고려한 최적의 중화제 주입조건으로 주입관의 간격은 3.0m, 주입압은 130kPa로 선정하였다.

Background: Shoulder joint injection is currently performed under fluoroscopic or computed tomography scan guidance. We performed this study to determine if an ultrasound guided shoulder joint injection through rotator cuff interval would have clinical usefulness. Methods: A total of 17 volunteers [12 women, 5 men; mean age 28 yr (23-32 yr)] received shoulder joint injection under multilinear ultrasound (5-10 MHz). Volunteers were positioned supinely on a table with their arm in a neutral position. The anterior shoulder region of the patient was sterilized using povidone iodine. A 24 gauge needle was introduced and directly visualized in real time as it passed obliquely from the skin surface to the inferior space of the biceps tendon. If there was little or no resistance to the injection, a contrast media (omnipaque) was injected and checked fluoroscopically. Results: Ultrasound guided shoulder joint injection through rotator cuff interval was successful in all cases. The average time taken for the procedure was $27.5{\pm}16.5sec$. The vertical distance from skin to the inferior space of the biceps tendon was $1.6{\pm}0.4cm$ and the distance of needle from the skin to the inferior space of biceps tendon was $2.8{\pm}0.6cm$. The procedure was well tolerated by all volunteers. Conclusions: Ultrasound guided shoulder joint injection through rotator cuff interval is an effective, rapid, and easy-to-perform injection technique. Ultrasound guided injection enables exact needle placement and avoids the use of both ionizing radiation and iodinated contrast material.

Objective : Percutaneous vertebroplasty has recently been introduced as an interesting therapeutic alternative for the treatment of thoracolumbar vertebral body fractures in elderly persons with osteoporosis. The authors present the early results of this method. Method and Material : From July 1999 to April 2000, percutaneous transpedicular technique was used in 20 patients (2 men and 18 women) whose mean age was 67.5 years old(range 59-79) with painful vertebral compression(22) and burst(2) fractures. The interval between fracture and vertebroplasty ranged 1 day to 4 months. The procedure involved percutaneous puncture of the injured vertebra via transpedicular approach under fluoroscopic guidance, followed by injection of polymethylmetacrylate(PMMA) into the vertebral body through a disposable 11-guage Jamshidi needle. Result : The most common cause of fracture was slip down and the most frequent injured level was the twelfth thoracic spine. The procedure was technically successful bilaterally in 18 patients(9 thoracic and 15 lumbar spines) with an average injection amount of 7.7ml PMMA in each level. Seventeen(94.4%) patients reported significant pain relief immediately after treatment. Two leaks of PMMA were detected with postoperative CT in spinal epidural space and extravertebral soft tissue without clinical symptoms. Conclusion : Although this study represents the early results, percutaneous vertebroplasty seems to be valuable tool in the treatment of painful osteoporotic vertebral body fractures in elderly, providing acute pain relief and early mobilization.

To evaluate remodeling of infarcted myocardium with contrast-enhanced MRI (co-MRI) at true end-diastole (ED) MRI was performed with a Gyroscan Intera (1.5 Tesla, Philips, Netherlands) in 13 patients with acute subendocardial myocardial infarction. The First exam was done 0-15 days (mean 5.2days) after symptom onset and the second exam 28-88days (mean 49 days) after the first exam. Ce-MRI encompassing the entire left ventricle was performed with a multi-shot, turbo-field-echo, breath-hold sequence and a non-selective, inversion prepulse 10 minutes after the intravenous injection of Gd-DTPA at a dose of 0.2 mmol/kg body weight. To allow the long TD, ECG synchronization should use two RR-intervals for one acquisition of a segment of k-space by setting the heart rate to half that of the true heart rate. Trigger delay time (TD) was adjusted to the RR-interval for true end-diastolic imaging. The other typical parameters were TR=5.4ms, TE=1.6ms, voxel size=1.37${\times}$1.37${\times}$10mm, k-space data segmented into 8 segments with 32 lines of segment per two cycles over 16 cardiac circles. The thickness of hyperenhanced myocardium and epicardially nonenhanced myocardium were followed.

상복부 수술후 진통을 위하여 경막외 narcotics 주입시 임상에서 경막외강 천자가 가장 많이 시술되고 있는 부위 안 요부 경막외강에 morphine과 demerol을 각각 주입하여 진통 효과를 관찰하였다. 전신 마취하에서 상복부 수술을 받은 환자 20명을 대상으로 하여서 morphine 1 mg을 주입한 10명의 I군, demerol 10mg을 주입한 10명의 II군에서의 진통 효과를 관찰하였던 바 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. Morphine 을 주입한 I군에서는 평균 진통 시간이 29.4시간이었다. 2. Demerol을 주입한 II군에서는 평균 진통 시간이 4.0시간이었다. 3. Morphine을 주입한 I군이 Demerol을 주입한 II군보다 진통 시간이 훨씬 길었으며 통계학적으로 유의하였다. (P<0.05) 이상의 결과로 보아 상복부 수술후 진통 목적으로 마약제를 경막외강에 투여시 시술이 안전한 요부 경막외강내로 투여하여도 우수한 진통효과를 얻을 수 있으며 마약제로는 morphine의 투여가 demerol의 투여보다 더욱 진통 효과가 우수한 것으로 사료된다.

Cyclotron-accelerated ion beams are used for various researches, such as nuclear physics, nuclear chemistry, biotechnology, and material sciences including radio-isotope production. Recently considerable applications are asked to the cyclotron development undertaken to meet user requirements of various ions'energies, intensities, and their pulsed beams. For instance, a cocktail beam acceleration technique rapidly changing the ion species and energies was developed to irradiating integrated circuit chips. Also a chopping system in a cyclotron injection line is considered for producing a pulsed ion beam with a relatively long period compared with that generated by the resonance frequency. For the research in neutron time-of-flight measurement, a single-pulsed beam with a repetition interval of the order of mili-seconds or longer is necessary to have a good resolution and to remove background events. In this paper a feasibility of pulsed beam with an external ion source is simulated by adopting a combination system of a chopper accompanying with a bunching stage in the injection line and an additional chopper after the exit of the cyclotron in order to produce beam pulses with a range of $1{\mu}s{\sim}1ms$ periods from a resonance RF cycle. The pulseperiod will be adjusted by chopping the number of beam bunches from the injected pulses in the injection line. However, the longer pulses will have reduced number of beam pulses and sacrificed beam currents. Because the beam users need an intense single pulsed beam, a careful tuning of the acceleration phase and a high-intense external ion source are necessary to achieve an intense single-pulsed beam from the cyclotron. It is essential to strictly match the acceleration phase of injected beams in the central region of the cyclotron to improve its efficiency. An effect of space charge at each pulse from the ion source will be also considered.

Posterior neck pain is a common complaint of patients in the pain clinic. The atlas (C1) burst fracture is known to be a cause of posterior neck pain and instability. Although the atlas burst fracture and instability can be discovered by plain X-rays which show lateral mass displacement or widening of the atlantodental interval, assessment of an atlas burst fracture can be difficult if there is no instability in the imaging study. Here we report a case of a 46-year-old female patient who had complained of sustained posterior neck pain for 6 months. Plain X-rays showed only disc space narrowing at C4/5 and C5/6, without any cervical instability. However, an unrecognized C1 lateral mass fracture was detected by CT and MRI. The patient's pain was then successfully treated after atlantoaxial joint injection with a C2 DRG block.

지하구조를 영상화하기 위한 물리탐사자료의 역산에서 가장 기본적인 가정 중의 하나는 자료측정 시간 동안에 지하구조가 변화하지 않는다는 정적인 지하구조 모형에 있으며, 시간의 흐름에 따른 지하구조 변화를 이해하기 위한 지구물리 모니터링 탐사자료의 역산에서도 통상적으로 받아 드려지고 있다. 그러나 투수성이 매우 높은 지하 매질에서 수행하는 염수 주입 실험의 경우에는 전도성 유체가 매우 빠른 속도로 이동하게 되므로, 측정시간 동안에 지하구조가 변화하지 않는다는 정적인 지하구조 모형의 가정은 성립되지 않은 경우가 많다. 또한 역산 결과 얻어지는 지하 영상에도 심한 왜곡이 게재될 가능성이 높음은 자명한 일이다. 이 연구에서는 이와 같은 문제를 해결하기 위하여 지하구조가 시간에 대해 연속적으로 변화하는 시공간 모델에 입각한 새로운 최소자승 역산법을 개발하였다. 지하 시공간 모델을 수많은 공간 모델로 일정한 시간간격으로 샘플링하는 대신에, 미리 설정한 수개의 기준 시각의 공간 모델로 정의하는 방법을 제안하였으며, 이를 위해 동일한 공간좌표에서의 물성은 시간에 대해 선형적으로 변화한다는 가정을 채택하였다. 이에 의해 시간에 따라 연속적으로 변화하는 지하의 시공간 모델을 구하는 문제는 수 개의 기준 공간 모델을 구하는 문제로 단순화될 수 있다. 역산의 안정성을 기하고 신뢰도가 높은 지하구조를 계산하기 위해, 인접한 시간대의 지하구조의 변화는 크지 않다는 시간축을 따른 제한 또한 도입하였다. 전기비저항 시추공간 토모그래피 탐사의 수치 실험을 수행하였으며 이를 통해 제안한 알고리듬의 효용성을 입증하였다.

In this paper, we review recent studies on the magnetic helicity changes of solar active regions by photospheric horizontal motions. Recently, Chae(200l) developed a methodology to determine the magnetic helicity change rate via photospheric horizontal motions. We have applied this methodology to four cases: (1) NOAA AR 8100 which has a series of homologous X-ray flares, (2) three active regions which have four eruptive major X-ray flares, (3) NOAA AR 9236 which has three eruptive X-class flares, and (4) NOAA AR 8668 in which a large filament was under formation. As a result, we have found several interesting results. First, the rate of magnetic helicity injection strongly depends on an active region and its evolution. Its mean rate ranges from 4 to $17 {\times} 10^{40}\;Mx^2\;h^{-1}$. Especially when the homologous flares occurred and when the filament was formed, significant rates of magnetic helicity were continuously deposited in the corona via photospheric shear flows. Second, there is a strong positive correlation between the magnetic helicity accumulated during the flaring time interval of the homologous flares in AR 8100 and the GOES X-ray flux integrated over the flaring time. This indicates that the occurrence of a series of homologous flares is physically related to the accumulation of magnetic helicity in the corona by photospheric shearing motions. Third, impulsive helicity variations took place near the flaring times of some strong flares. These impulsive variations whose time scales are less than one hour are attributed to localized velocity kernels around the polarity inversion line. Fourth, considering the filament eruption associated with an X1.8 flare started about 10 minutes before the impulsive variation of the helicity change rate, we suggest that the impulsive helicity variation is not a cause of the eruptive solar flare but its result. Finally, we discuss the physical implications on these results and our future plans.
