L1251B is an excellent example of a small group of pre- and protostellar objects in low-mass star-forming region. Previous interferometer data with a high angular resolution resolved the outflows associated with L1251B into a few components. To understand the physical conditions of the protostellar outflows in L1251B, we mapped this region spectroscopically with Spitzer/IRS and obtained spectral line data from Herschel/PACS. Spitzer/IRS provides the S(0)-S(7) pure rotational lines of H2 as well as fine-structure emissions produced in shocks such as S, [Si II], and [Fe II] and it is a powerful tool for studying shocked interstellar gas. In addition, [O I] lines observed with Herschel/PACS are described well by J-type shock models expected in the outflows from protostars. We will present an analysis of the L1251B protostellar outflow in the H2 pure rotational lines and fine-structure emissions.

Applying one specific thesaurus might cause several problems because each thesaurus has its own characteristics inherited from its construction process. Therefore, integration of thesauri can be an appropriate approach to overcome the difficulties. This current research selected physics as a domain and two thesauri in the domain: PACS and PIRA. By integrating these two heterogeneous thesauri, this research could construct a conceptual structure that covers the whole concepts related to physics. By constructing the conceptual structure with the use of facet analysis from integrated thesaurus, it provides knowledge base with hierarchical structure and clear relationships between concepts. It can be an alternate approach to effective and efficient information retrieval and knowledge discovery.

의료분야에서의 통신망 이용은 의료분야 전산화의 진전과 함께 계속 증가하고 있으며, 이의 일환으로 외국에서는 의료용 화상정보 표현, 전송 및 검색을 위한 표준 프로토콜인 DICOM을 이용한 PACS를 개발, 시험 또는 상용화 하고 있는 상황이다. 한편 국내에서는 이러한 PACS 시스템의 도입이 미미한 실정으로, 삼성의료원을 비롯한 몇몇 대형 의료기관에서 PACS의 일부를 도입, 운영하고 있으며, 보험청구 및 환자정보 관리를 중심으로 한 의료분야 전산화가 꾸준히 이루어지면서 많은 병원에서도 PACS 시스템의 도입 및 원격 진료 서비스 제공에 많은 관심을 가지고 있는 상황이다. 또한 이러한 의료용 화상정보 뿐만 아니라 일반적인 문자기반 의료정보의 표현, 전송 및 검색을 위한 표준 프로토콜인 HL7(health level 7)을 이용하여 의료보험 등과 같이 직접적인 의료행위 이외의 기타 부가정보를 의료기관 사이 또는 의료기관과 비의료기관 사이에서 공유하고 있다. 이러한 의료분야에서의 통신망 이용기술과 함께, 현재 고속 통신망에서 많이 개발되어지고 있는 화상회의 시스템의 발전에 기인하여 원격 진료 서비스에 관한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있는데, 이는 원거리에 위치한 의료기관간에 표준 프로토콜을 이용한 의료용 화상 또는 문자정보 공유가 가능해지고, 고속 통신망을 이용한 화상회의 및 긴급성을 가진 대용량 화상정보의 실시간 전송이 가능한 점에 기인한다. 본 고에서는 이러한 원격 진료 시스템의 발전 배경 및 전반적 시스템의 구조와 특성을 고찰하고, 국내외의 원격 진료 시스템 활용 현황에 관하여 기술한다.

Extravasation of contrast material is a not infrequent complication of enhanced imaging studies and large volume extravasation may result in severe damage. Subcutaneous extravasation of the radiographic contrast medium is one of the complications of the contrast medium-enhanced procedures. Automated power injectors enable the contrast material to be delivered at a uniform high-flow-rate and as a nonfragmented bolus, and this is essential for many contrast material enhanced CT(computed tomography) applications. The major risk associated with the use of automated power injectors is the well known complication of contrast material extravasation at the injection site. Automated injection of CT contrast material can produce the compartment syndrome. Selection of the nonionic contrast material after careful evaluation of the intravenous administration site and monitoring of the patient during the use of a mechanical power injector may help minimize or prevent extravasation injuries. Early identification is important and conservative management is effective in most cases. Prevention of these injuries with the education of radiological technologist remains the ultimate aim.

디지털 영상 검출기와 디스플레이 기술의 발달과 의료영상전달시스템(PACS)의 출현은 전통적 필름방식에 비하여 디지털 방식으로 방사선과 영상을 획득하고 전송, 저장하는 매우 효과적인 수단을 제공하고 있다. 2002년 8월, 연세의료원 세브란스병원은 진단 영상 판독 목적으로 18 대의 CRT(Braco View, Belgium)와 32대의 평판 LCD(Totoku Electric Co., Ltd., Japan) 디스플레이 장치를 GE full-PACS(GE 메디칼시스템코리아 : GEMSK)와 연계하여 설치 완료하였다. 본 연구에서, 기하학적 왜곡, 반사, 휘도 반응, 휘도 균일도, 분해능, 노이즈,베일링 글레어, 칼라 균일도 항목들을 AAPM TG18 보고서 9.0에 따라서 시각적 그리고 부분적으로는 정량적인 방법으로 인수검사를 실시하여 보고한다. 사용된 장비는 색도계로도 사용되는 간편한 휘도계, TG18 테스트 패던, AAPM Tg18 AT plug-in software(Barco View Ltd., Kortrijk, Belgium)이었다. 칼라 균일도를 제외한 모든 테스트 결과는 AAPM TG18에서 권고하는 기준에 일치하였으며 진단 영상 판독에 사용하기에 전적으로 수락할 수 있는 성능이었다. 결론으로, 사용된 인수검사는 단지 인수 검사 표준을 제공하는 것 뿐만 아니라 품질검사(QC)의 지침, 판독 환경의 최적화 그리고 교체 시기나 업그레이드 시기를 결정하여주는 중요한 역할을 할 수 있을 것이다.

L1448-MM, known as a class 0 YSO with a prominent outflow, was observed with the Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS) aboard Herschel Space Observatory by the key program, DIGIT (Dust, Ice, Gas in Time, PI: Neal Evans). The PACS covers various molecular and atomic line transitions such as CO, OH, $H_2O$, [OI], and [CII] at wavelengths from 55 to 210 ${\mu}m$. The line emission of $H_2O$, [OI], mid-J CO, and the OH fundamental transition distributes along the outflow direction although high-J CO and other OH emission peaks at the central spatial pixel. According to our excitation analysis, the CO gas has two temperature components: 300 K and 750 K, which are attributed to PDR and shock, respectively. However, the $H_2O$ gas with the rotation temperature ($T_{rot}$) of 200 K seems only affected by shock. Interestingly, the relative strength of OH transitions suggests the IR pumping process in L1448-MM. We also mapped L1448-MM in CO J=2-1 with the SRAO 6m telescope to compare with the FIR line transition maps.

Recently, the medical imaging field has been digitalized by the development of computer science and digitization of the medical devices. There are needs of the medical imaging database service and long term storage today because of the installation of PACS system following DICOM standards, telemedicine and etc. and ,also, the illegal distortion of the medical information, data authentication and copyright are being happened. In this paper, we propose watermarking technique as a method which can protect private informations and medical imaging from geometric distortion. Because many watermarks for images are sensitive to geometric distortion, we present a algorithm that is insensitive to RST distortion in medical image. we observed the robustness against several of the signal processing and attacks in medical imaging field by embedding watermark after making a region which is insensitive to RST distortion by using FFT and LPM transformation.

Medical images are being managed more by PACS in general medical institutions. It is important to protect patients from being invaded their privacy related to the images. It is also necessary to confirm the ownership, the right of property of the medical images and notice whether the data are modified. In this paper, we propose a robust watermarking against RST attacks in medical images on the PACS. The proposed scheme modifies and improves Log-Polar Mapping and Fourier Mellin Transform in order to realize and recover serious image degradation and watermark data loss caused by the conversion between cartesian coordinate and log-polar coordinate. We used the radius and theta Look Up Table to solve the realization of the Fourier Mellin Transform, and inserted a watermark into 2D-DFT magnitudes using Spread Spectrum. Experimental results shows that this method are robust to rotation attack.

As for information system in hospital which digital hospital aims at, there are PACS(Picture Archiving and Communication System) and soon. PACS transfer and store various medical pictures which are occurring in hospital. The various medical pictures is captured by using keyboard or foot switch during a surgical operation. In this paper, foot switch USB module that can be mounted into a main foot switch case is designed and implemented, it is having a MCU circuit with a built-in micro-controller and a I/O interface having a maximum of five switch. we also developed foot switch control software program with various functions. The result of using the module in the hospital field confirms that the module operates safely.

Recently, we were able to get thinner projection supplied by multi detector CT. Not only 'axial projection' is used to decode the examination but asks resctructured projections in various directions. MPR technique is capable of drawing flexible curves to produce projection reenactment which enables describing details of a part that is desired but it has a disadvantage that curvy blood vessels like 'willis circle artery' distorting. This essay suggested Curved MPR method based on different disorders which was improved using distinction of HU value along with existing MPR method. After reconstructing the projection using the suggested method, the projection was transmitted by using PACS and it confirmed its usefulness of decoder's efficiency diagnosis.
