  • In last few decades, medical imaging techniques have been developed startling progress. Especially in MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), many imaging techniques such as chemical shift imaging, flow imaging, diffusion and perfusion imaging, fast imaging, susceptibility imaging and functional imaging have been studied and many of them were well known as useful diagnostic instruments. In this paper, recently developing techniques, i.e., NMR microscopy, fringe field imaging and functional imaging will be presented.

  • 의료영상기기의 발달과 등장으로 진단과 치료목적으로 생성된 의료영상은 기하급수적으로 증가하고 있다. 게다가 의료 환경이 보다 전문화, 집중화 되면서 의료기관 간의 협업의 중요성이 강조되고 있다. 의료기관간의 효과적인 의료협업을 위해서는 의료정보의 원활한 가시화와 이를 지원하기 위한 정보 처리는 필수적이다. 의료기관간의 의료정보를 가시화하기 위해서는 안정적이고 다양한 의료정보를 표현하기 위한 플랫폼이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 의료정보 협업을 지원하는 의료협업 플랫폼을 제안하고 기존의 PACS-Grid 와 서비스 기반의 의료정보 협업 가시화 서비스를 설명하고자 한다.

  • The objective of this paper is to develop mobile-based PACS(Picture Archiving Communication System: mPACS) for diagnostic medical image service available via Android-based mobile smartphone. The proposed mPACS provides an integrated platform for mobile application of diagnostic medical images stored in hospital PACS, and allows the smartphone to store, retrieve, manipulate and transfer the diagnostic medical images. Then, the mPACS platform includes the following features for use in the Android framework (i. e., diagnostic medical image processing) : transfer protocols between PACS, mPACS and smartphone, image format converter, JPEG and JPEG2000 coders, text and avatar search, and etc. This mPACS is shown to be useful and effective in providing a solution for mobile-based diagnostic medical image service.

  • At present, several artificial intelligence projects in the healthcare and medical field are competing with each other, and the interfaces between the systems lack unified specifications. Thus, this study presents an artificial intelligence platform for healthcare and medical fields which adopts the deep learning technology to provide algorithms, models and service support for the health and medical enterprise applications. The suggested platform can provide a large number of heterogeneous data processing, intelligent services, model managements, typical application scenarios, and other services for different types of business. In connection with the suggested platform application, we represents a medical service which is corresponding to the trusted and comprehensible tracking and analyzing patient behavior system for Health and Medical treatment using Internet of Behavior concept.

  • Tele-medicine and emergency medical system are necessary for moving from an accidental point or far distance to a hospital and emergency treatment or home treatment before a hospital. Emergency treatment is extremely important in the case of death before arriving a hospital and deformed of disabled by medical treatment delay. A necessary element for this medical system is the emergency communication system. This system is on preparing for an ability of furnishing patient status to a corresponding health service by monitoring the patient at an ambulance of the accident place. This is the transportation of basic biological information of a patient to a medical center by wireless communication system and the corresponding hospital of medical center examine the patient by monitoring, then they can send emergency medical order to the patient for emergency treatment. The TRS is most efficient way of emergency medical communication system, which is currently used with popularity. In this paper studied simultaneously a way of detecting and transporting bio-logical signals, and monitoring of transporting data with communication of voice in the accident place of ambulance.

  • In this letter, a small-sized ultra-high frequency (UHF) RFID tag antenna for a medical sample tube is proposed. The RFID tag antenna is designed and fabricated based on the circular loop antenna used in the UHF band (Korea standard, 917 MHz to 923.5 MHz). The tag antenna size is reduced using a circular meander stub. The antenna has a physical size of 8 mm, which is about ${\lambda}$/40 in electrical length. The proposed tag antenna is molded into a medical sample and multitag identification is performed.

  • It is becoming more important as the growing of health information and increasing in cancer patients diagnose over the time gradually. Among the various types of cancer, we focuses on breast cancer diagnosis. The accuracy of breast cancer diagnosis is increasing when the diagnosis is based on evidence and statistics. To do this we use the weka data mining tools and analysis algorithms significantly associated with the decision tree uses rules. In addition, the data pre-processing and cross-validation are used to increase the reliability of the results. The number and cause of the disease becomes important to increase evidence-based medical doctors. As the evidence-based medical, the data obtained from patients in the past through the disease by calculating the probability for future patients to diagnose and predict disease and treatment plan. It can be found by improving the survival rate plays an important role.

  • The oriental medical treatment has many strong points when compared to the western medical treatment, but there are still problems when there is no scientific proof given concerning the effectiveness of a certain treatment. Moreover, experiments are being conducted where new medical treatments applied to patients suing both oriental and western techniques. Especially, in oriental acupuncture, there is no objective data on which an oriental medicine doctor can decide the injection time for acupuncture needle by considering a patients body condition, age and the condition of the diseases. From computer simulation results, it has been that the electronic needle is more efficient than the conventional method of acupuncture needle.

  • Health information-seeking behavior (HISB) is active need-fulfillment behavior whereby health information is obtained from diverse sources, such as the media, and has emerged as an important issue within the transforming medical environment and the rise of medical consumers. However, little is known about the factors that affect HISB and its associations, and the health outcome of HISB. The aim of this study was to examine individual and social contextual factors associated with HISB and to systematically review their effects on health status among post-treatment cancer patients. Individual determinants of HISB included demographic factors, psychosocial factors, perceived efficacy and norms, and health beliefs. Contextual determinants of HISB encompassed community characteristics, neighborhood social capital, and media advocacy. Improving through factors on these two levels, HISB raised individuals' self-care management skills and medical treatment compliance, and enhanced shared decision-making and medical treatment satisfaction. Moreover, because HISB can differ according to individuals' social contextual conditions, it can give rise to communication inequalities. Because these can ultimately lead to health disparities between groups, social interest in HISB and balanced HISB promotion strategies are necessary.
