Objectives : To get to know the effects of placental extract and laser theraphy for Temporomandibular Joint Disorder, we have tried a injection of placental extract and laser theraphy into 聽宮(SI19), 聽會(GB02) for patient with Temporomandibular Joint Disorder. Methods : In this case clinical assessment of temporomandibular joint dysfunction is assessed by the VAS score and the Korean Version of Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders(RDC/TMD). Results : The VAS score was significantly decreased after Placental extract herbal acupuncture and laser theraphy Conclusion : Placental extract herbal acupuncture and laser theraphy effectively resolved pain for Temporomandibular Disorders.

In this paper, the circuit of AC Choppers for $CO_2$laser Power Supply are proposed and investigated. IGBT-controlled ac voltage regulators, operating at high frequency chopping mode. Chopping-to-supply duty ratio plays an important role in terms of laser output. Laser input energy is varied by controlling the leakage transfomer used with the proposed system. This improved circuit employs a 3 electrode-type and Ring Blower. This improved circuit system has many advantages compared with the conventional SMPS such as simple design requirment, easy implementation, high reliability, low switching loss, and consequently high efficiency. As a result, the maximun output was 16W at duty-ratio of 92%, total gas mixture of $CO_2$: $N_2$: He = 1 : 9 : 15, total pressure of 15torr.

Objectives The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Low Level Laser Therapy on Atopic dermatitis symptoms. Methods 19 patients (7 men, 12 women) were involved in this study. The intensity of SCORAD index (Erythema/darkening, Edema/papulation, Oozing/crust, Excoriation, Lichenification/prurigo, Dryness) and the symptom of SCORAD index (Pruritus) in two regions were measured. One region was treated by LLLT, the other region was not treated. Then a comparative study of index score of two regions was analyzed. Results After treatment, there were statistically significant differences in Edema/papulation, Excoriation (p<0.001), Oozing/crust (p<0.01), and Pruritus(p<0.05) index. Conclusions Based on the results, we concluded that LLLT is an effective in the treatment of atopic dermatitis. Also, further controlled studies with clinical cases of appropriate treatment time, wavelength, and intervals are needed.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an effective method for infectious disease, but as yet, no clinical trial on otitis externa has been conducted in animals. This report describes 4 cases of PDT treatment on severe otitis externa in canine. Four canines were treated with various concentrations of 5-aminolevulinic acid hydrochloride (5-ALA) and with various J (second ${\times}$ power) and irradiated by light-emitting diode light source at 635 nm, respectively. After the PDT applications, canines incubated in the dark for 5 or 6 hr. All patients showed clinical resolution of otitis externa after PDT treatment at the dose of 0.16~0.3 g ALA and J (54~162 $J/cm^2$). On the basis of these findings, PDT can be considered to be a new therapeutic approach to severe otitis externa in canine.

The hand-piece fiber optics is applied to medical appliances such as glaucoma theraphy to focus semiconductor laser on the affected parts efficiently. In this paper, we evaluate optical properties such as beam power and radius of a hand-piece probe by experiments and we also simulate the hand-piece optics by ray tracing method in order to study major parameters to optimize focalization ability. As results, we show experimental and simulation results of the hand-piece optics and also summarize several requirements that have to be considered in optimizing the hand-piece optics.

기존의 안과 진단 및 치료 기기의 안구 고정장치는 진단 및 치료에 있어서 피검사자와 검사자에 사이에 충분한 협조가 되지 않을 경우 진단의 비효율성과 치료의 안정성등의 문제가 발생하고있다. 따라서 이러한 문제를 보완하기 위하여 SLO의 전면 세극등을 소형의 반사경으로 대치하고 표시등을 후면의 먼거리에 수직으로 배열시켜서 피검사자에게 적당한 높이의 고정등을 선택하게하여 수직방향의 안구 위치를 고정시키고 SLO(Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscope)의 좌우 회전기능으로 표적의 수평방향을 근절시킨 후에 검사자의 조작으로 원격조정되는 서보장치를 이용하여 다시 반사경을 전방향으로 미세하게 회전되게하여 정확한 위치로 안구를 이동시키게 하는 원격조정 표적 추적장치를 개발하였다. 이에 따라 피검사자는 거울에 비친 먼거리의 허상을 보게 되어 세극등을 이용한 근접주사방식의 단점인 안구의 축동, 폭주등으로 인한 환자의 눈의 피로를 최소화하면서 피검사자의 안구를 검사자가 원하는 위치로 고정시킬 수 있게 함으로써 임상실험에서 안과 진단의 정확성과 관리도를 높이고 치료의 효율성과 안전성을 증가시킬 수 있는 원격조정 추적장치로써의 성능을 확인하였다.
