  • In this study, a cancer treatment by accumulating and aggregating ferromagnetic particles in newborn blood vessels was examined. It is necessary for this treatment to control dispersion-aggregation property of ferromagnetic particles. Ferromagnetic particles required in this method disperse at low magnetic field, aggregate at high magnetic field and maintain the aggregation even after removal of the magnetic field. In order to control the dispersion-aggregation property, the surface of magnetite particles was modified with higher fatty acids having different lengths. As a result, we succeeded to prepare propionic acid-modified magnetite particles that form irreversible aggregation by magnetic field. The model experiments simulating newborn blood vessels showed that these particles can block the flow by the magnetic field, and the blockage was maintained after removal of the magnetic field.

  • Purpose: To investigate factors influencing the evaluation of background parenchymal enhancement (BPE) at follow-up breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after adjuvant endocrine therapy. Materials and Methods: One hundred twelve women with breast cancer and MRI of the contralateral unaffected breast before and after endocrine therapy were identified. Two readers in consensus performed blinded side-by-side comparison of BPE (minimal, mild, moderate, and marked) before and after therapy with categorical scales. Age, body mass index, menopausal status, treatment regimen (selective estrogen receptor modulator or aromatase inhibitor), chemotherapy, follow-up duration, BPE at baseline MRI, MRI field strength before and after therapy, and recurrence were analyzed for their influences on decreased BPE. Results: Younger age, premenopausal status, treatment with selective estrogen receptor modulator, MRI field strength, and moderate or marked baseline BPE were significantly associated with decreased BPE. In multivariate analysis, MRI field strength and baseline BPE showed a significant association. Conclusion: MRI field strength and baseline BPE before and after therapy .were associated with decreased BPE at post-therapy, follow-up MRI.

  • 자계신경 자극치료는 다른 분야에 비해 많이 낙후된 실정이다. 특히, 자기장(MF)의 성공적인 의료도입이 Avicenna의 연구에서 오래전에 언급되었고, 최근에 의학 magnetology 발달의 시대로 생각될 수 있다. 이러한 발달은 공학자와 생물학자 그리고 임상의의 접합부분 노력을 통하여 이루어지고 있으며, 새로운 장비들과 BT기술은 꾸준히 발전되고 있다. 자계신경 자극치료분야는 CMF, VMF, PMF분야 등이 대표적이나 본 연구에서는 HPMT기술인 장파 high-amplitude(전통적인 magneto-therapy의 크게 대단한 강렬) 짧은시간 치료용 시스템을 각 기능별로 설계하고 제작하여 특성을 비교분석 하였다.

  • 본 연구는 경혈점에 적용한 자장요법이 여고생의 월경통에 미치는 효과를 파악하여 여고생들에게 효율적인 자가 간호 중재로써의 활용가능성을 검증하고자 시도된 무작위 할당 대조군 전후설계이다. 자료수집기간은 2006년 3월부터 4월까지로, 보건실을 방문한 여고생에게 실험 전, 설문지에 통증척도인 도표 평정 척도(Grapic Rating Scale, GRS)와 분만어휘 평정척도(Adjective Labor Pain Rating Scale, ALPRS)를 작성하게 한 뒤 각 군에게 직경 12mm, 두께 3mm의 원형 자석에 800~1200Gauss의 자력이 있는 의료용 자석을 3시간동안 적용하였다. 설문지는 각각 자석 적용 직후 3시간과 제거 후 3시간에 설문지인 GRS와 ALPRS를 작성하게 하였다. 연구결과 경혈점에 자장요법을 적용한 실험군은 적용하지 않은 대조군보다 월경통 GRS와 ALPRS가 유의하게 감소하였다. 이상의 결과로 경혈점에 적용한 자장요법이 여고생의 월경통에 통증경감에 효과가 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 비약물요법으로서의 월경통 완화를 위한 간호중재법으로 활용할 것을 기대한다. 또한 본 연구에서 ALPRS가 월경통에 대해 타당성이 제시되었으므로 추후 연구를 통해 ALPRS의 타당도 검증을 위한 반복 연구가 필요하다. 여고생들의 월경통 경감을 위한 보완대체요법으로 적용하게 될 것을 제언한다.

  • Magnetic nerve stimulation treatment is much backward real condition than other field. Specially, successful medical treatment introduction of magnetic field (MF) can was refered long ago in Avicenna's work, and is thought as age of medicine magnetology development recently. These development is achieved through biologist and biophysicist and clinician's joint effort, but, new mountings and relationship air tassel are developed steadily. Magnetic nerve stimulation treatment field designs treatment system by each function during long wave high-amplitude (traditional magneto therapy of greatly great that strong that) short time that CMF, VMF, PMF field etc. are representative but are HPMT technology in this research and manufacture and special quality did comparative analysis.

  • The outer-most electrons of metal atoms and the remining valence electrons of any molecular atoms make three dimensional crystallizing $\pi$-bondings. The electrons on the $\pi$-bonding orbital rotate clockwise or counter-clockwise and they then make electro-magnetic waves between atoms on the orbital because electron move between plus charged ions. The three dimensional crystallizing $\pi$-bonding orbitals are quantum-mechanically modeled by a cyclic Kronig-Penny Model and energy band structures are analyzed with their potential barrier thickness. The waves generated between plus charged ions are the particular $\pi$-far infrared rays, which have dual properties between material and electro-magnetic waves and can be measured not by modern electro-magnetic tester but biosensor such as finger's force tester. Because the $\pi$-rays can be modulated with electro-magnetic waves it can be applied for harmful electro-magnetic wave killers. Because the $\pi$-rays make new three dimensional crystallizing $\pi$-bonding orbitals in the material the food and drink can be transformed into a helpful physical constitutional property for human health. Distinction between crystalline and amorphous metals is possible because very strong crystalline $\pi$-bonding orbitals can not easily be transformed into another. The $\pi$-rays can also be applied for biofunctional diagnostics and therapy. Gravitational field is one of the electro-magnetic fields. And also magnetic field and gravitational force field make charge's movement. ($\times$ = q, : magnetic field, : force field, q: plus charge, : velocity field)

  • Purpose: This study was to determine the immediate effects of pulsed magnetic field (PMF) in subjects with upper trapezius (UT) trigger point (TrP). Methods: Fifteen subjects with UT TrP were recruited for the study's PMF group (pain threshold=$2.29kg/cm^2$), and 15 age-, weight-, and gender-matched subjects with UT TrP were recruited for control group (pain threshold=$2.25kg/cm^2$). Pressure algometer was used to measure pressure pain threshold on UT TrP and, cervical range of motion (ROM) inclinometer was used to measure cervical ROM. Surface electromyography was used to record UT, lower trapezius, and serratus anterior muscle activity and relative ratio during scapular plane abduction between pre- and post-treatment. Results: The PMF effectively improved pain threshold and concurrently increased ROM (rotation to the painful side, lateral flexion to the nonpainful side). In addition, the PMF may effectively deactivate UT activity during abduction and the muscle activity ratio between UT and serratus anterior. Conclusion: These findings provided empirical evidence that PMF can be an effective treatment method to reduce pain threshold, to increase cervical ROM, and deactivate UT activity in individuals with TrP.

  • 목적: 전자선 조사야에서 자기장의 유무, 세기와 형태에 따른 표면 선량의 변화를 알아보고 임상에서의 적용 가능성에 대하여 알아보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 6 MeV 전자선과 $10{\times}10\;cm^2$의 조사야를 이용하여 9개의 hole이 있는 차폐블록을 제작하여 필름 농도를 측정하고 전자선 조사야 내에 자장이 위치 할 때와 조사야의 외부에 위치 할 때의 선량변화를 필름과 표면선량 측정기를 이용하여 측정하였다. 결 과: 전자선의 입사각은 조사야의 중심에서 측면으로 4 cm 지점에서 3도 정도의 입사각을 나타내었으며, ring type의 자기장을 사용할 경우 0.9%의 표면선량 증가가 나타나고, lens block에 자기장을 위치시키면 1.58%의 표면선량이 증가하고, half 조사야의 중심 측면에 자기장을 위치시키면 조사야의 중심에 3.6%의 표면 선량 증가를 보였다. 결 론: 전자선은 선속의 중심에서 측면으로 일정 각도를 이루고 조사되어지며 자기장이 위치한 조사야내 표면선량의 변화는 자기장으로 인하여 전자선의 진행 방향이 변화되었음을 의미하고 안구와 같은 부위에 환자의 불편함이 없이 표면선량을 증가 시켜야 할 경우 유용한 방법으로 사용되어질 것이다.
