The purpose of this research is to examine how the village community centers are being used and find how to improve leisure activities of elders in rural areas by using them. In order to achieve the purpose of this research, we did convenience sampling from elders using 92 village community centers in one of the counties in Gyeong-gi province, and did field survey to 343 persons. The collected data was analyzed by SPSS 18 program, and the results are as follows: The survey on population sociological peculiarity of elders using village community centers shows that most of elders are over 70 years old. As for health conditions, there are more elders who are physically weaker than healthy elders. And the survey shows that most of the elders are suffering from illness such as hypertension, arthritis, neuralgia, and indigestion so such programs related to health are critically required. First, the survey on using village community centers by elders in rural areas shows that they think the village community centers are important for them and use them often. Most of respondents said that they use the village community center so as to meet friends, to enjoy leisure, and to spend time in rural areas where they have difficulty enjoying cultural facilities. Meanwhile, some people dislike to use the village community centers mainly because there is few programs for leisure or each one has a different personality or they don't have enough money to pay for the membership fee. Second, according to the survey on leisure for the elders in village community centers, there are few leisure programs. For men, they spend time by playing Baduk, Janggi, Hwatu and drinking. Meanwhile, women spend time by meeting with friends, listening to radio and TV watching. There are almost nothing to improve leisure activities such as hobby, recreation and health etc. Male elders using centers are suffering from health problems, economic difficulty, and lack of leisure activities, meanwhile, female elders are suffering from loneliness, health problems, and economic difficulty. Third, according to the survey on improving the leisure program of village community center, elders preferred health related programs to improve leisure activities. The most necessary leisure activities in village community center are hobby classrooms, health programs and group travelling. They preferred health related programs for leisure in village community center. Based upon the reality described above, improving the village community centers as leisure facilities is considered to be important for the welfare well of elders in rural areas.

$[^{11}C]PIB$는 베타아밀로이드($A{\beta}\;plague$)라는 변성 단백질에 결합하여 뇌의 기능과 기억력을 서서히 감퇴시키는 비가역적인 질환인 치매를 조기에 감별할 수 있는 대표적인 방사성의약품이다. 지금까지 많은 실험실에서 $[^{11}C]PIB$는 자동화합성장치에서 $[^{11}C]methyl\;iodide$나 $[^{11}C]methyl\;triflate$를 만든 다음 loop나 vial 방법을 사용하여 methylation을 한 다음 HPLC로 정제를 하는 것이다. 하지만 기존의 보고된 방법은 시간이 오래 걸리며, HPLC와 같은 복잡한 시스템을 필요로 하여 소규모 실험실에서 합성하기에 적합하지 않으며, 최종 product에서 에탄올 함량이 높다는 단점이 있었다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위하여 카트리지만을 사용하여 카트리지에서 methylation과 purification을 동시에 실시함으로써 합성 시간을 단축하고, 비방사능이 높고, 낮은 에탄올 함량을 가진 $[^{11}C]PIB$를 합성 가능한지 확인하고자 하였다. 가장 널리 사용하는 카트리지 6종(CM, HLB, Alumina, C18, tC18, tC18 environmental을 선택하여 screening test를 실시하였다. 6-OH-BTA-0 1 mg을 c-HXO에 녹인 다음 6개의 카트리지에 loading를 한 다음 0.5 M MSP(pH 5.1) 20 mL로 정제를 한 다음 최종 fraction을 받아서 analytical HPLC로 전구체 잔류량을 측정한 결과 hydrophobicity가 낮은 계열(CM, HLB, Alumina)의 카트리지에서는 완충액으로 정제를 하였을 때 잔류전구체의 양이 많았으나, 탄소함량이 많은 계열의 카트리지(C18, tC18, tC18 environmental)에서는 잔류전구체의 양이 CM, HLB, Alumina 카트리지에 비하여 상대적으로 적었다. 완충액의 정제 농도와 부피를 최적화 하기 위하여 screening test에서 가장 좋은 결과를 나타낸 C18 series cartridge를 가지고 추가 실험을 진행하였다. 인산완충액 농도를 10 mM, 20 mM, 30 mM, 40 mM, 50 mM, 250 mM, 500 mM로 변화시켰으며, 에탄올 함량은 20%와 30%로 하여 용출액을 분석하여서, $[^{11}C]PIB$를 카트리지로 합성하기 위한 최적의 조합은 tC18 environmental cartridge와 0.5 M MSP 20 mL인 것을 알 수 있었다. 기존에 보고된 방법과 cartridge를 비교한 결과, 합성시간에서는 각각 15 ~ 18min, 8 ~ 9 min이 소요되었으며, product activity는 각각 $4.1{\pm}1.4\;GBq$ (n=41), $3.8{\pm}0.9\;GBq$ (n=3), 방사화학적 수율(based on HPLC analysis of the crude product)에서는 $13.9{\pm}4.4%$ (n=41), $12.3{\pm}2.2%$ (n=3)로 별다른 차이가 없었으며, 비방사능에 있어서는 HPLC purification method가 $78.7{\pm}39.7\;GBq/{\mu}mol$ (n=41), cartridge method가 $420.6{\pm}20.4\;GBq/{\mu}mol$ (n=3)로 카트리지 방법이 기존 방법보다 더 좋은 결과를 나타내었다. 또한, 잔류 용매(c-HXO)도 vial or loop method와 별다른 차이가 없었으며, 에탄올 함량에 있어서는 70%(기존 방법)에서 30%(카트리지 방법)로 두 배 이상 함량이 적다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 지금까지 알아본바와 같이 cartridge method는 reported method(HPLC purification)에 비하여 더 향상된 결과를 보여준다는 사실을 확인하였다.

Objectives : We performed an in vivo experiment to investigate the effect of $^{166}Holmium$ and $^{166}Holmium$-chitosan complex($^{166}Ho$-CHICO) on the normal brain of rats and to determine the sublethal dose of $^{166}Ho$-CHICO. Materials and Methods : $^{166}Ho$ is a beta and gamma ray emitter. $^{166}Ho$-CHICO is a novel radio-pharmaceutical complex with chitosan to facilitate the transport of $^{166}Ho$ obtained from Korea Atomic Energy Research Center(Taejon, Korea). It is in acidic form and becomes gel state at alkaline pH. One hundred and seventy consecutive rats were divided into four groups : $^{166}Ho$ treated(n＝50), $^{166}Ho$-CHICO treated(n＝57), saline treated(n＝5) and chitosan treated(n＝5) groups. $^{166}Ho$ and $^{166}Ho$-CHICO were injected into the rat brain stereotactically with various doses of 0.1mCi/$20{\mu}l$, 0.2mCi/$20{\mu}l$, 0.3mCi/$20{\mu}l$, and 0.4mCi/$20{\mu}l$ using an automated microinjector. Nuclear imaging, histopathological and hematological studies were performed in 10 rats in each group at 1 day, 3days, 7 days, 1 month and 3 months after the injections. Results : An infiltration of inflammatory cells and necrotic changes were noted in $^{166}Ho$ treated group at 1 week after the injection. A wedge-shaped tissue defect due to necrosis, lined with infiltrated glial cells in $^{166}Ho$ treated group and a cystic defect lined with reactive astroglial cells in $^{166}Holmium$-CHICO treated group at 3 months after the injection were observed. $^{166}Ho$ alone without chitosan leaked out and caused necrotic lesion on the cerebral surface but $^{166}Holmium$-CHICO treated group did not show this feature. As the dose of $^{166}Ho$ increased, the mortality rates were also increased. The mortality rate of the $^{166}Holmium$-CHICO group was higher than the $^{166}Ho$ treated group at a dose of 0.4mCi/$20{\mu}l$/300g. There was no detectable radioactivity due to the leakage or extravasation from the injected site of the brain on the scintigraphy performed at 1 hour, 24 hours and 48 hours after the injection. There was also no detectable activity of $^{166}Holmium$-CHICO in other organs including spleen, liver and kidney. Conclusions : $^{166}Ho$-CHICO did not leak out to the critical cortical surface of the brain from the injection site and induced radiation changes of the parenchyma around the injection site without cortical damage. The sublethal dose of $^{166}Ho$-CHICO for the normal brain in rats was determined to be 0.2mCi/$20{\mu}l$/300g.

The practical application of modern space science and technology have resulted in many actual and potential gains of mankind. These successes have conditioned and increased the need for a viable space law regime and the challenge of space has ultimately led to the formation of an international legal regime for space. Space law is no longer a primitive law. It is a modern law. Yet, in its stages of growth, it has not reached the condition of perfection. Therefore, under the existing state of thing, we could carefully say that the space law is one of the most newest fields of jurisprudence despite the fact that no one has so far defined it perfectly. However, if space law can be a true jurisprudential entity, it must be definable. In defining the space law, first of all, the grasp of it's nature iis inevitable. Although space law encompasses many tenets and facets of other legal discriplines, its principal nature is public international law, because space law affects and effects law relating intercourse among nations. Since early 1960s when mankind was first able to flight and stay in outer space, the necessity to control and administrate the space activities of human beings has growingly increased. The leading law-formulating agency to this purpose is the United Nation's ad hoc Committee on Peaceful Uses of Outer Space("COPUOS"). COPUOS gave direction to public international space law by establishing the 1963 Declaration of Legal Principles Governing the Activities of the States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space("1963 Declaration"). The 1963 Declaration is very foundation of the five international multilateral treaties that were established successively after the 1963 Declaration. The five treaties are as follows: 1) The Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space including Moon and other Celestial Bodies, 1967. 2) The Agreement on the Rescue of Astronauts, the Return of Astronauts, and the Return of Objects Launched into Outer Space, 1968. 3) The Convention on International Liability for Damage Caused by Space Objects, 1972. 4) The Convention on Registration of Objects Launched into Outer Space, 1974. 5) The Agreement Governing Activities of States on the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies: Moon Treaty, 1979. The other face of space law is it's commercial aspect. Space is no longer the sole domination of governments. Many private enterprise have already moved directly or indirectly into space activities in the parts such as telecommunications and space manufacturing. Since space law as the public international law has already advanced in accordance with the developments of space science and technology, there left only a few areas untouched in this field of law. Therefore the possibility of rapid growth of space law is expected in the parts of commerical space law, as it is, at this time, in a nascent state. The resources of the space environment are also commercially both valuable and important since the resources include the tangible natural resources to be found on the moon and other celestial bodies. Other space-based resources are solar energy, geostationary and geosynchronous orbital positions, radio frequencies, area possibly suited to human habitations, all areas and materials lending themselves to scientific research and inquiry. Remote sensing, space manufacturing and space transportation services are also another potential areas in which commercial. endeavors of Mankind can be carried out. In this regard, space insurance is also one of the most important devices allowing mankind to proceed with commercial space venture. Thus, knowlege of how space insurance came into existence and what it covers is necessary to understand the legal issues peculiar to space law. As a conclusion the writer emphasized the international cooperation of all nations in space activities of mankind, because space commerce, by its nature, will give rise many legal issues of international scope and concern. Important national and world-community interests would be served over time through the acceptance of new international agreements relating to remote sencing, direct television broadcasting, the use of nuclear power sources in space, the regularization of the activities of space transportation systems. standards respecting contamination and pollution, and a practical boundary between outer space and air space. If space activity regulation does not move beyond the national level, the peaceful exploration of space for all mankind will not be realized. For the efficient regulation on private and governmental space activities, the creation of an international space agency, similar to the International Civil Aviation Organization but modified to meet the needs of space technology, will be required. But prior to creation of an international organization, it will be necessary to establish, at national level, the Office of Air and Space Bureau, which will administrate liscence liscence application process, safety review and sale of launch equipment, and will carry out launch service.

단 반감기 핵종을 이용한 PET검사는 방사성동위원소의 빠른 물리적 붕괴로 인하여 영상 획득을 위한 계수검출이 제한적이다. 이러한 이유로 비교적 낮은 감도의 검사에서는 보다 정확한 정량적 평가를 위하여 긴 시간동안 영상 획득을 적용하기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 $^{11}C$와 $^{18}F$를 이용한 PET 검사 시 영상 획득 시간에 따른 차이를 평가하여 합리적인 영상 획득 시간에 관하여 알아보고자 한다. 1994 NEMA Phantom에 $^{11}C$은 $30.08{\pm}4.22MBq$, $^{18}F$은 $40.08{\pm}8.29MBq$을 증류수에 희석하여 채운 후 $^{11}C$은 동적영상 1분씩 20회, 정적 영상 20분, $^{18}F$은 동적영상 2분30초씩 20회, 정적영상 50분을 획득하였다. 모든 데이터는 동일한 재구성법을 적용하였으며, 시간의 경과에 따른 붕괴보정을 적용하였다. 방출영상에 관심영역을 설정하고 최대 방사능 농도값(kBq/mL)을 비교하였으며, 각각의 동적영상을 영상 획득 시간의 증가에 따라 1개씩 증가시켜 영상 합산(Image summation) 후 영상의 관심 영역 내에서의 최대 방사능 농도값(kBq/mL)을 평가하였다. $^{11}C$ 동적영상의 시간 경과에 따른 최대 방사능 농도값은 $3.85{\pm}0.45{\sim}5.15{\pm}0.50kBq/mL$, 정적영상은 $2.15{\pm}0.26kBq/mL$였다. $^{18}F$ 동적영상은 $9.09{\pm}0.42{\sim}9.48{\pm}0.31kBq/mL$, 정적영상은 $7.24{\pm}0.14kBq/mL$였다. $^{11}C$의 동적영상 합산에서 영상 획득 시간의 합이 5, 10, 15, 20분으로 증가할수록 $2.47{\pm}0.4$, $2.22{\pm}0.37$, $2.08{\pm}0.42$, $1.95{\pm}0.55kBq/mL$으로 감소하였으며, $^{18}F$의 경우 합산된 영상 획득 시간의 합이 12분 30초, 25분, 37분 30초, 50분으로 증가할수록 $7.89{\pm}0.27$, $7.61{\pm}0.23$, $7.36{\pm}0.21$, $7.31{\pm}0.23kBq/mL$으로 감소하였다. 영상의 질을 평가 하는 SNR에서는 $^{11}C$과 $^{18}F$ 모두 동적영상획득 방법에서는 주사 후 시간이 흐를수록 SNR가 저하 되었으나, 영상 합산획득 방법에서는 합산 횟수가 증가 할수록 SNR가 향상 되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 동적영상에서 시간 경과에 따른 최대 방사능 농도값은 $^{11}C$과 $^{18}F$에서 증가하였고, 동적영상 합산의 경우는 합산수가 증가함에 따라 최대 방사능 농도값은 $^{11}C$과 $^{18}F$ 감소함을 보였다. $^{18}F$을 이용할 경우에는 시간 경과에 따른 정량평가의 오차를 크게 고려하지 않아도 될 것으로 사료되고, $^{11}C$를 이용한 PET 검사는 시간경과에 따른 감쇠 보정의 오차를 감안하여 추가의 감쇠 보정법을 적용하거나 30%정도의 오차를 적용하여 정적영상 획득시간을 반감기의 25% 이내인 5분 내외로 설정해야 할 것이다.

수신증 진단을 받은 소아 환자 $^{99m}Tc$-DMSA 신장 검사에서 영상 획득 후 좌-우측 신장의 섭취 비율을 분석하기 위해 관심영역을 설정하는데, 장비의 자동 관심영역 설정 시 수신증으로 확장되어 있는 신우 부위까지 관심영역에 포함되어 정확한 좌-우 신장의 섭취율이라 할 수 없기에 본 연구는 신장 모형과 확장된 신우의 모형을 이용한 실험을 통해 수신증으로 인해 확장된 신우를 포함한 관심영역과 포함하지 않은 관심영역을 비교하여 보다 개선된 관심영역의 설정 방법을 제시 하고자 한다. 또한, 확장된 신우에 섭취된 방사성 의약품이 신장 피질 세포에서의 섭취인지 아니면 요관의 막힘으로 인한 잔류 소변 인지를 알아 보기 위해 판독의의 도움을 받아 알아 보기로 한다. 두 개의 신장 모형에 같은 양의 물을 채우고 $^{99m}TcO_4$ 111 MBq를 각각 넣어 섞었다. 확장된 신우를 표현하기 위해 5개의 고무 풍선에 물 용량을 각각 10 mL로 채운 후 $^{99m}TcO_4$를 각각 18.5, 37, 55.5, 74, 92.5 MBq를 각각 섞어 준비 하였다. 또한, 고무 풍선에 $^{99m}TcO_4$를 37 MBq으로 고정하고 물 용량을 각각 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 mL를 섞어 준비하였다. 좌측 신장은 모양 그대로 유지하고 우측 신장 모형에 이 고무 풍선을 붙여 수신증의 신장과 비슷한 모형을 만든 후 각각 200만 계수를 수집하였다. 수집된 영상을 확장된 신우를 포함한 관심영역과 포함하지 않은 관심영역을 그려서 좌-우 신장의 섭취비율을 비교 하였고, 재현성을 위해 한 영상당 5회씩 관심 영역을 설정하였다. 환자의 경우 $^{99m}Tc$-DMSA를 1.5~1.9 MBq/kg 주사하고, 3~4시간 후에 검사하였고, 숙련된 3명의 방사선사가 각각 1회씩 관심 영역을 설정하여 비교 평가 하였다. 두 자료 간의 통계적 유의성을 알아보기 위해 SPSS (ver. 17) Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test 사용하였다. 신장 모형 실험 결과로 확장된 신우를 포함하여 관심영역을 설정한 것과 포함하지 않고 관심영역을 설정한 두 집단간에 수집계수, 주변 계수, 섭취율을 비교해 본 결과 수집계수와 섭취율의 변화된 결과를 얻을 수 있었고, 환자 검사 영상에서 또한 섭취율의 변화된 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, 확장된 신우에 섭취된 방사성 의약품은 확장된 신우에 의해 요관으로 내려가지 못한 잔류 된 소변이라는 것이 확인되었다. 위 결과에서 보여 주듯이 신장의 좌-우측 섭취율 도출 시에 수신증으로 인해 신우가 확장된 신장에서 신우를 포함하여 관심영역을 설정했을 때의 섭취율이 포함하지 않았을 때의 섭취율에 비해 과섭취율을 보여 주고 있다. 검사자의 작업 편의성과 결과의 신속성을 위해 자동 관심영역으로 설정하여 결과를 도출해 내고 있지만, 이러한 수신증 환자의 경우에는 확장된 신우에 방사성의약품이 섭취가 되어있는 것은 잔류된 소변이므로 관심영역 설정 시에 확장된 신우 부분을 제외하고 수동으로 관심영역을 설정해야 정확한 좌-우측 신장의 섭취율을 도출할 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.

PET/CT 검사에서 발생하는 환자의 움직임은 감쇠보정의 불일치를 초래하여 정량평가에 영향을 주게 되어 결과의 정확도를 저하시키게 된다. 본 연구에서는 PET/CT 3D 영상촬영에서 투과촬영 후 방출촬영의 위치변화에 따른 감쇠보정 불일치 시 감쇠보정 위치 변화 방법을 이용한 영상재구성법의 유용성에 대하여 평가하였다. GE Discovery STE16 장비에 스티로폼($20{\times}20{\times}10$ cm)의 중심점을 기준으로 x, y축 방향으로 ${\pm}2$, 6, 10 cm까지 1 mL 주사기 삽입 공간을 제작하였다. $^{18}F$-FDG 5 kBq/mL의 주사기를 중심점에서 투과촬영한 후 위치를 변화하여 방출촬영하고 위치 변화에 따른 감쇠보정 방법을 사용하여 영상을 얻었다. 재구성 방법은 반복영상 재구성법으로 반복횟수 2회, 부분집합 수 20을 적용하였으며 모든 방출촬영 데이터는 시간경과에 따른 붕괴보정을 적용하였다. 또한 주사기 위치에 관심영역을 설정한 후 방사능 값(kBq/mL)과 중심점에 대한 각 위치에서의 백분율 오차를 비교하였다. 방출영상의 중심점의 방사능 값은 2.30 kBq/mL이며, +x축 1.95, 1.82, 1.75 kBq/mL, -x축 2.07, 1.75, 1.65 kBq/mL, +y축 2.07, 1.87, 1.90 kBq/mL, -y축 2.17, 1.85, 1.67 kBq/mL로 나타났고, 백분율 오차는 +x축 15, 20, 23%, -x축 9, 23, 28%, +y축 12, 21, 20%, -y축 8, 22, 29%로 산출 되었다. 그리고 방출 영상에서 감쇠보정 위치변화 방법을 사용 하였을 경우 +x축 2.00, 1.95, 1.80 kBq/mL, -x축 2.25, 2.15, 1.90 kBq/mL, +y축 2.07, 1.90, 1.90 kBq/mL, -y축 2.10, 2.02, 1.72 kBq/mL로 나타났으며, 백분율 오차는 +x축 13, 15, 21%, -x축 2, 6, 17%, +y축 9, 17, 17%, -y축 8, 12, 25%로 산출 되었다. 감쇠보정 불일치 시 감쇠보정 위치변화 방법을 사용한 경우의 방사능 농도 값은 x, y축에서 평균 0.14, 0.03 kBq/mL 증가 하였고, 백분율 오차는 6.1, 4.2% 향상되었다. 또한 중심으로부터 멀어질수록 공간분해능이 저하되는 특성상 중심에서 먼 위치일수록 방사능 값의 저하현상은 커짐을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 실제 임상에서는 감약 정도가 더 커지기 때문에 이러한 불일치 시 그 오차는 더 클 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 감쇠보정이 일치하지 않는 부분의 병변에서는 감쇠보정 위치변화 방법을 적용하여 방사능 값의 오차를 감소시킬수 있을 것이다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.
