Radiation Therapy(RT) has been used in the treatment of breast cancer for over 80 years. Technically, it should include a part or all of such areas as chest wall or breast, axilla, internal mammary nodes(IM) and supraclavicular nodes (SCL). Authors tried three-field technique for the treatment of breast cancer using 6 MV linear accelerator, exclusively the department of Radiology, Kang-Nam St. Mary's Hospital, at Catholic Medical College. The field junction was checked by a phantom study and radiation doses measured by film densitometry and TLD. The 3 fields we used in this study were two isocentric opposing tangential fields encompassing the breast, chest wall and occasionally IM and one single anterior field encompassing the axilla and SCL. Using appropriate beam blocks and blouses, we were able to avoid unwanted intrinsic divergency of photon beam. Blocking also enabled us to set-up precise radiation field with ease.

It is known that fixed source to skin distance (SSD) cannot be used when the treatment field is sloped or larger than the size of second collimator in electron beam irradiation and inverse square law using effective ssd should be adopted. Effective SSDs were measured in different field sizes in each 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18MeV electron energy by suing NELAC 1018D linear accelerator of Kosin Medical Center. We found important parmeters of effective SSD. 1. Minimum effective SSD was 58.8cm in small field size of $6\pm6cm$ and maximum effective SSD was 94.9cm in large field size of $25\pm25cm$, with 6MeV energy. It's difference was 36.1cm. The dose rate at measuring point was quite different even with a small difference of SSD in small field $(6\times6cm)$ and low energy (6 MeV). 2. Effective SSD increased with field size in same electron energy. 3. Effective SSDs gradually increased with the electron energies and reached maximum at 12 or 15 MeV electron energy and decreased again at 18MeV electron energy in each identical field size. And so the effective SSD should be measured in each energy and field size for practical radiotherapy.

The treatment setup of patients during irradiation is an important aspect in relation to the success of radiotherapy. Imaging with the treatment beam is a widely used method or verification of the radiation field position relative to the target area, prior to or during irradiation. In this paper, Real time digital radiography system was implemented or verification of local error between simulation plan and radiation therapy machine. Portal image can be acquired by CCD camera, image board and pentium PC after therapy Radiation was converted into light by a metal/fluorescent Screen. The resulting image quality is comparable to film, so the imaging system represents a promising alternative to film as a method of verifying patient positioning in radiotherapy. Edge detection and field size measurement were also implemented and detected automatically for verification of treatment position. Field edge was added to the original image or checking the anatomical treatment verification by therapy technicians. By means of therapy efficiency improvement and decrease of Radiation side effects with these techniques, Exact Radiation treatments are expected.

The SI unit of specific absorption rate (SAR) in W/kg in the electromagnetic (EM) field as non-ionizing radiation is exactly same as the SI unit of absorbed dose rate in Gy/s in the ionizing radiation field. The SI unit of both physical quantities can be expressed in $[m^{\cdot}s^{-3}]$. Where, the unit of absorbed dose, Gy stands for Gray. In EM biological interactions, the SAR equations are derived and the characteristics of EM field energy absorption in terms of the SAR are discussed and described on the mathematical basis.

This study is on acoustic radiation efficiency of a tiffened cylindrical model in water-multi-excitation with phase difference using commercial numerical program ABAQUS and SYSNOISE. When the stiffened cylindrical model is under multi-excitation with phase difference, the surface vibration field is variated with phase difference of excitation. By this different surface vibration field, the acoustic radiation efficiency is also variated with phase difference of excitation.

Nowadays, research of EMI/EMC is very important in electromagnetic wave surroundings generated from many electric and electronic devices. Especially, analysis of electromagnetic radiation characteristic and field have to be performed first of all. At the present most of EMI/EMC problems are solved by the method of practice and inspiration. Hence in this paper, will provide the first step for solving EMI/EMC problems in design process. Model of analysis is structure composed of PCB and Frame. By the first step, theory of dipole antenna is adapted to analyze electromagnetic radiation characteristic and field. Because it is fundamental of analysis of electromagnetic radiation. And it will be expanded for structure of PCB and Frame. Finally, it provide the basic method of analysis of electromagnetic radiation characteristic and field by making similar dipole antenna to PCB and Frame structure.

We studied about dosimetry according to the X-ray tube voltage, radiation field object thickness and obtained results as follow. 1. Secondary ray involing rate in the penetrated radiation increased proportion to the tube voltage, but its rate is more larger at the small radiation fields. than large fields. 2. Secondary ray involving rate in the penetrated radiation increased at thick object and large exposure fields. But saturated phenomenon appeared at limited field. 3. Secondary involving rate of acryl phantom is more top place than water, paraffin and aluminum phantom.

The domestic Radiation Technology is integrated into and utilized in various areas and is closely related to the industrial growth in Korea. The domestic use of radiation and RI (Radioisotope) increases in quantity every year, however the level of technology is poor when compared to other developed countries. Manpower training is essential for the development of Radiation Technology. Therefore, this study aimed to propose a methodology for designing systemic education and training model in the field of measurement and analysis of radiation. A survey was conducted to design education and training model and the training program for measurement and analysis of radiation was developed based on the survey results. The education and training program designed in this study will be utilized as a model for evaluating the professional development and effective recruitment of the professional workforce, and can be further applied to other radiation-related fields.

This study explained the effects of radiation, magnetic field, and nanoparticle shape on the peristaltic flow of an Upper-Convected Maxwell nanofluid through a porous medium in an asymmetric channel for a better understanding of cooling and heating mechanisms in the presence of magnetic fields. These phenomena are modeled mathematically as a system of non-linear differential equations, that are solved under long-wavelength approximation and low Reynolds number conditions using the perturbation method. The results for nanofluid and temperature described the behavior of the pumping characteristics during their interaction with (the vertical position, thermal radiation, the shape of the nanoparticle, and the magnetic field) analytically and explained graphically. Also, the combined effects of thermal radiation parameters and some physical parameters on pressure rise, pressure gradient, velocity, and heat distribution are pointed out. Qualitatively, a reverse velocity appears with combined high radiation and Grashof number or combined high radiation and low volume flow rate. At high radiation, the spherical nanoparticle shape has the greatest effect on heat distribution.
