인간의 질병연구를 위한 소동물용 픽셀화 반도체 검출기 기반의 단일광자단층촬영(SPECT, single photon emission computed tomography)시스템 개발이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 CdTe검출기 기반의 SPECT시스템의 고해상도 및 저선량 소동물 영상화 가능성을 알아보고자 NaI(Tl) 섬광결정 검출기로 구축된 SPECT 시스템과 비교 평가하였다. CdTe 검출기는 $44.8{\times}44.8$ mm의 크기이며 $0.35{\times}0.35{\times}5$ mm크기의 픽셀로 구성되어 있다. 검출기의 내인성 분해능은 0.35 mm 이며 이는 픽셀 크기와 동일하다. GATE 시뮬레이션 방법을 통하여 두 시스템간의 성능 평가를 수행하고 비교 분석하였다. 시스템의 공간 분해능과 민감도는 10 MBq의 $^{99m}Tc$ 점 선원을 사용하여 평가하였다. 복셀화된 MOBY (mouse whole-body) 팬텀을 사용하여 정량적 평가 및 흡수선량을 계산하였다. 점선원과 조준기 사이의 거리가 30 mm 일 때, NaI(Tl) 섬광결정 검출기 기반의 SPECT의 분해능은 1.54 mm, 민감도는 83 cps/MBq였으며, CdTe검출기 기반의 SPECT시스템의 분해능은 1.32 mm, 민감도는 116 cps/MBq로 더욱 향상된 공간 분해능과 민감도를 나타내었다. 두 시스템의 정량적 통계 분석은 CNR 계산을 통해 이루어졌으며, 주입 선량을 다양하게 설정하여 두 시스템에서의 CNR을 획득하였다. Mouse brain내 striatum의 주입선량이 160 Bq/voxel일 경우, CdTe검출기 기반의 SPECT에서 획득한 CNR은 2.30이었으며 섬광결정 검출기 SPECT에서 획득한 CNR은 1.85로 CdTe검출기 기반의 SPECT에서 더욱 큰 CNR을 지니고 있었다. 또한, CdTe기반의 SPECT를 사용할 경우 NaI(Tl) 섬광결정 검출기 기반의 SPECT 시스템을 사용하는 것보다 동일한 정량적 수치획득을 위한 소동물의 피폭선량을 감소시켜줄 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 반도체 검출기 CdTe기반의 SPECT은 NaI(Tl) 섬광결정 검출기 SPECT 시스템보다 공간 분해능과 민감도 측면에서 높은 성능을 보였음을 증명하였다. 실제 시스템과의 검증 등의 추가 연구가 필요하지만, 본 연구 결과는 향후 피폭 선량을 줄이는 동시에 영상의 질을 높일 수 있는 소동물용 SPECT 시스템 구축에 응용될 수 있을 것이다.

$^{123}I$, which is applied for the thyroid and other in vivo kinetic study, has a special role in life sciences. The 159 KeV $\gamma-ray$ from $^{123}I$ is almost ideally appropriate for the current imaging instrumentation. Its decay mode (electron capture) and short half-life (13.3 hr) reduced the burden of radiation dose to the patients, and its chemical property makes it easy to synthesize the labelling compounds. In this experiment, the production of $^{123}I$ via the nuclear reaction $^{124}Te(p,2n)^{123}I$ with 28 MeV protons was sutdied. $TeO_2$ is used as a target material, because it has good physical properties. The target was prepared with $TeO_2$ powder and was molten into a ellipsoidal cavity (a=14 mm, b=10 mm, $270.8mg/cm^2$ thick) of pure platinum. The irradiation was carried out in the external proton beam with incident energies range from 28 MeV to 22 MeV, and current was $30{\mu}A$. The loss of $TeO_2$ target was significantly reduced by using $4\pi-cooling$ system in irradiation. The dry distillation method was adopted for the separation of $^{123}I$ from irradiated target, and when it was kept 5 minutes at $780^{\circ}C$, its result was quantitative. The loss of the target material $(TeO_2)$ was below 0.2% for each production run and $^{123}I$ from the dry distillation apparatus was captured with 0.01 N NaOH in $Na^{123}I$ form, then the pH of the solution was adjusted to $7.5\sim9.0$ with HC1/NaOH. The $Na^{123}I$ solution was passed through $0.2{\mu}m$ membrane filter, and sterilized under high pressure and temperature for 30 minutes. The production of $^{123}I$ is acceptable for clinical application based on the quality of USP XXI.

The detector performance is important role in acquiring the gamma rays from patients. Among parameters of detector performances, there is density, which relates to respond to gamma rays. Therefore, we confirm the detection efficiency according to various detector materials based on the density parameter using GATE (geant4 application for emission tomography) simulation tool. The NaI (density: 3.67 g/cm³), CZT (Cadimium Zinc Telluride) (density: 5.80 g/cm³), CdTe (Cadmium Telluride) (5.85 g/cm³), and GAGG (Gadoinium Aluminum Gallium Garnet) (density g/cm³) were used as detector materials. In addition, the point source and quadrant bar phantom, which is modeled for 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 mm thicknesses, were modeled to confirm the quatitative analysis using sensitivity (cps/MBq) and the full width at half maximum (FWHM, mm) at the 2.0 mm bar thickness containing visual evaluation. Based on the results, the sensitivity for NaI, CZT, CdTe, and GAGG detector materials were 0.12, 0.15, 0.16, and 0.18 cps/MBq. In addition, the FWHM for quadrant bar phantom in the 2.0 mm bar thickness is 3.72, 3.69, 3.70, and 3.73 mm for NaI, CZT, CdTe, and GAGG materials, respectively. Compared with performance of detector materials according to density, the high density can improve detection efficiency in terms of sensitivity and mean count. Among these detector materials, the GAGG material is efficient for detection of gamma rays.

The recovery of tellurium from Te-cement obtained during the processing of copper anode slimes was carried out by a series of hydrometallurgical processes, i.E. leaching Te-cement in NaOH solution, precipitation of impurities with the addition of ${Na}_{2}S$ followed by direct electrowinning of tellurium in NaOH solution. The optimum conditions for each process were determined and discussed in terms of various parameters associated with each step to maximize the recovery and purity of tellurium. The final purity of tellurium from electrownning in alkaline solution was found to be more than 99.9%.

From November 2021 to October 2022, 151 pigs were discarded due to the suspected salmonellosis, when assessed by antemortem inspection at slaughterhouses in Gwangju. Among them, 85 cases shown with the rectal stricture were confirmed to be infected with Salmonella spp, when assessed by postmortem inspection and Salmonella-oriented culture in the laboratory, accounting for 56.3% of the carcass discard cases. Salmonella spp. were isolated in 58 cases (68.2%) out of 85 total discard cases. As for serotyping of the Salmonella isolates, 28 cases (48.3%) belonged to serogroup B and 28 cases (48.3%) belonged to serogroup C, those were the most frequent isolates, and 2 cases (3.4%) belonged to serogroup E.
