This study aimed to look at servant leadership that general radiotechnologist perceive from the servant leadership perspective and based on this to suggest ways to improve not only organizational effects of radiotechnologist who work clinically but also their working conditions. A population of 290 radiotechnologist who work at hospital in Pusan was the subject of this study and a survey was conducted to them. The analysis for the collected data used SPSS/PC+Win13 version and one-way, ANOVA was carried out to verify differences between groups. Servant leadership according to background factors showed relatively higher values among unmarried than married, twenties or more in terms of age, and nuclear medicine department in terms of the work department than other groups. Regular positions in terms of work types and university hospitals in terms of hospital types showed high scores, and as the motive for being a radiotechnologist, many considered job prospects. Hospitals should improve the organization's ability and performance by managing human resources efficiently. According to this study, servant leadership that radiotechnologist serve the community based on true prestige with basic honesty and trust as a member of fair community is a new model of true leadership that the future society requires.

PACS is one of the most used medical information system and share information from other hospitals through the PACS. Data integrity means zero defects data and this is a prerequisite of information system performance. but I wonder if I can trust these informations that Incorrect information from radiotechnologist's mistakes, anonymous in emergency department, Newborn baby department, modified informations at later. And Modified informations causes defect in integrity of the data. When we import, we use DICOM header not DB data. so error occurs that DB data is deferent with DICOM Header information. This paper discusses to resolve as above problem using DICOM object such as DICOM PR, SR. And propose quality management system that can guarantee the patient information and can manage exam history.

A 78-year-old female patient referred by the department of obstetrics and gynecology was recommended for orthopedic surgery because a cystic lesion was found in the left femoral proximal area in the bone mineral densitometry. CT scan and general X-ray performed in the orthopedic department found benign tumors later. Intra-medullary nail was operated. Curettage and bone graft were performed. Radiotechnologist is also important for the morphological observation of femur in the femoral BMD. It provides a lot of benefits to the patient.

Purpose: Recognize circulation work system and fixing work system's merits and demerits that is enforced in operation of PET/CT center in sudden increase recently. Wish to estimate connectivity degree of individual exposure dose and PET/CT working that is managed periodically through this and look for operation efficiency of PET/CT center. Materials and Methods: (1) Find interrelationship of length of service to be individual exposure dose and PET/CT through TLD interpretation. Specially, evaluate on the basis of data of 2.5 years until 2 quarters 2006~2008 year that show patient increase rapidly the latest. (2) Recognize what countermeasure is evaluating problems happened at circulation work system and fixing work system. Results: Patient examination's number was 14,674 items until 2 quarters 2006~2008 year, and the $^{18}F$-FDG average injection amount was 461.5 MBq. 2 people of 10 radiotechnologist did fixing work PET area and GAMMA area each, and 8 people did circulation work of 3 times for 2.5 years. Average exposure dose that PET area and Gamma area's circulation men in service receive was 1.32 mSv, and PET area men in services came out average 0.825 mSv high than Gamma area men in services. Nurse's exposure dose is 0.28 mSv, and next 2 reason is conjectured. One is contact with patient that medicate $^{18}F$-FDG injection, and another is consultation about patient's next time schedule after examination end. Although exposure dose's amount is not much, is expected to consider continuation work possibility by exposure dose in case is a nurse with pregnancy possibility. Also, $^{131}I$-isotope therapy area's radiotechnologist that use capsule appeared by 0.12 mSv and a nuclear medicine doctor appeared by exposure dose that is less of 0.11 mSv. Conclusions: In case do PET/CT center circulation work after a long time, connoted danger that most men in service is consecutiveness deficiency of business and individual exposure dose increase at early 1 month. Specially, way for individual exposure dose's decrease should be considered. Also, need to evaluate abhorrent work form for efficient work system introduction, and enforce circulation and fixing work suggestion suitable shift working. Finally, must make normalized business guide and so on to prevent circulation work people's business efficiency decline.

This study aim to investigate image characteristics due to focus-grid and head phantom decentering from the armorphos silicon thin film transistor detector the fixed focus-grid is applied, wish to propose right use method of digital medical equipment. Acquired image according to focus-grid and head phantom position decentering using head phantom on armorphos silicon thin film transistor detector the fixed focus-grid is applied. acquired image evaluate pixel value, histogram, plot profile, surface plot using NIB (Image J) image analysis program and compared decentering image with standard image. Mean value and standard deviation value of focus-grid lateral decentering and duplex decentering of focus-grid and head phantom decreased by ratio, consequently increase of horizontality, diagonal decentering. also, deteriorated contrast of image because frequency of high pixel value decreases fairly. according increases decentering, image distortion phenomenon was increase, by next time, pixel mean value of head phantom decentering was no big change but horizontality, diagonal, mean value and standard deviation value of pixel decreased by ratio. Even if increase pixel noise of image because wide latitude and post processing ability of digital detector, radiotechnologist can not recognize. Therefore, radiotechnologist must recognize correctly the photographing factors which increases pixel noise on the grid system installation digital detector and should exam.
