In order to examine how Radiological Technologists perceive the oriental doctor's use of Medical Imaging Equipment, surveys were conducted for the members of the Korean Radiological Technologists Association. The total number of respondents were 515 and 481, with 34 insincere responses removed caused of nonvalidated answer. The results of the analysis are as follows. Although there were no statistical significance in the difference in perception by location of residence, work place, and educational background, respondents with higher education showed a tendency to agree on the use of comprehensive medical imaging equipment, but tended to oppose the use of special medical imaging equipment. Differences in perception by gender showed a greater negative perception toward the oriental doctor's use of medical imaging equipment by women than men. In particular, women showed more negative tendency for oriental doctor's use of special medical imaging equipment such as MRI, CT, and ultrasound equipment compared to men, and this was statistically significant. The difference in perception by age showed that the oriental doctor's use of medical imaging equipment was negative in the 20~30s, neutral in the 40~50s, and positive in the 60s, which were statistically significant. The difference in perception by work experience showed that the longer the work experience was, the more positive it was toward oriental doctor's use of medical imaging equipment. Specifically, the most favorable tendency was found with work experience of more than 30 years, which was statistically significant. The results of this study revealed the Radiological Technologists' perceptions on the oriental doctor's use of Medical Imaging Equipment and this can contribute to the direction of public health promotion in the future.

In this paper, we've studied on the Breakdownpatterns which hove an effect on Down-Time of Medical Equipment. This study is based on the statistics of MMS(Maintenance Management System) accumulated since the opening of Samsung Medical Center. We hope that this paper, which is acquired through the analysis about the seasonal feature, the work pattern feature and the period used, is useful to reduce a term of Down-Time and to retrench hospital management cost.

Recent development of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) equipment enables interventional radiology (IVR) as diagnosis and treatment under MRI usage. In this paper, a new methodology for magnetic resonance (MR) scanner to apply not only diagnostic equipment but for treatment one is discussed. The temperature measuring procedure under MR is to measure phase shift of $T_1$, which is the longitudinal relaxation time of proton, for the position inside a sample material with the application of pulsed RF for heating inside the sample as artificial dielectrics. The result shows the possibility to apply MR as temperature measuring equipment and as a heating equipment for applying such as hyperthermia heating modality.

The electromagnetic wave occurs primarily LED lighting equipment in the interior medical imaging information a lot of high-frequency equipment environment installation. It generated by lighting fixtures mach damage to patients as well as non or no operation. It can be reduced through noise attenuation and filter change. It associated with the capacitors and inductors can reduce by are used frequency efficiently, Attenuation circuit does not significantly affect the radiation medical equipment devices

In this paper, we review the effects of RF interference of medical equipment or other electric equipment which can emit radio frequency in the general hospitals environments which are in many cases being under the influence of various electromagnetic field. Using spectrum analysis method we found some devices could effect on the frequency of telemetry system. We also investigate the relationship between intensity of the signal and distance for the selected equipment used in hospitals.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the propriety of portable digital X-ray Equipment for Emergency Medical Services in Daejon Emergency Medical Center in Korea. The major instruments of this study were Korean Self-Analysis Opinionnaire, Questionnaire contains 35 items which measure emergency medical personal opnions. To take the analysis of data, the total of 92 persons were investigated in Medical Information Center in Daejon Metropolitan City from 2005. 20. April to 2004. 25. May. The data were analyzed by the path analysis SPSS program. First, portable X-RAY equipment is needed to apply it to emergency. Second, it should have small and light structure compared with old equipments and have high voltage generator unit for X-RAY using inverter. Third, it should be able to send the shot data that is digital detector type without film to doctors in emergency center.

This paper suggests the method to calculate radiation limit of ISM(Industrial Scientific Medical) equipment in order to protect radio device in the situation that ISM equipment and radio device are operated in near distance. The factor for correction and protection ratio which is need for protecting radio device were considered to calculate radiation limit of ISM equipment. Also, the scenario which is required to limit radiation power of ISM equipment was referred and the S/W for calculation of radiation limit was developed by using GUI(Graphical User Interface) on Matlab. The suggested method for calculation of radiation limit of ISM equipment will be used to protect radio device from ISM equipment.

Objectives: This study aimed to understand the knowledge, attitude, and wearing of four types of personal protective equipment among dental hygienists based on to the COVID-19 infection control guidelines and to provide basic data on the need to wear these equipment by dental hygienists in dental medical institutions. Methods: Between March 31 and April 26, 2022, 285 dental hygienists working at dental institutions in Busan and Gyeongsang Provinces participated in the study. Results: The higher the knowledge on personal protective equipment, the higher the glove-wearing rate; and the higher the attitude toward personal protective equipment, the higher the KF94 mask-wearing rate. Furthermore, the higher the rate of wearing face shields, the higher the rate of wearing gloves and full-body protective suits; and the higher the rate of wearing gloves, the higher the rate of wearing a full-body protective suit. Conclusions: To prevent cross-infection by dental hygienists in dental medical institutions, it is necessary to have the four types of personal protective equipment at all times and to strengthen comprehensive education on these equipment
