Chondrosarcoma is a very uncommon malignant primary bone tumor, especially, it occurs extremely rare in the spine. A 52-year-old man was admitted to the emergency room with sudden paraplegia. Twelve hours prior to a paraplegic event, he visited an outpatient clinic with discomfort and tenderness around the medial border of the right scapular, and his neurologic status was absolutely intact. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a lobulated soft tissue mass from T3 to T5, which extended to the epidural space. Computed tomography scans showed soft tissue mass on the spinal posterior arch and osteolytic change of the adjacent bony structures. Emergent surgery was performed and the lesion was removed. Dark reddish blood and gel-like material were encountered around the dura and posterior arch during the operation. Multiple pulmonary nodules were found on a chest CT scan and a biopsy of one of them had been proven to be a metastasis of chondrosarcoma. The histologic examination showed dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma. The patient's neurologic deficit was improved slowly from ASIA A to ASIA D. Chondrosarcoma in the spine is extremely rare, even more with acute hemorrhage and sudden expansion into the epidural space. We named it chondrosarcoma apoplexy. We should consider the possibility of a hemorrhagic event when the patient's neurologic deficit worsens suddenly with spinal bone tumor.

A 54-year-old female presented with a 4cm sized painless, submandibular gland area mass. Vascular lesion was suspected in computed tomography scan. Surgical excision was performed via retroauricular approach for its excellent cosmetic outcome. The vascular mass with peripheral focal calcification was clearly resected without complication such as bleeding or neural damage. Histopathological examination of the specimen revealed an arteriovenous malformation(AVM) with abnormal communications between arteries and veins without the normal intervening capillary bed. We report a successful excision of AVM in the submandibular space via retroauricular approach.

Three-dimensional high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides fine-level anatomical information for disease diagnosis. However, there is a limitation in obtaining high resolution due to the long scan time for wide spatial coverage. Therefore, in order to obtain a clear high-resolution(HR) image in a wide spatial coverage, a super-resolution technology that converts a low-resolution(LR) MRI image into a high-resolution is required. In this paper, we propose a super-resolution technique through filter learning based on information on the surrounding gradient information in 3D space from 3D MRI images. In the learning step, the gradient features of each voxel are computed through eigen-decomposition from 3D patch. Based on these features, we get the learned filters that minimize the difference of intensity between pairs of LR and HR images for similar features. In test step, the gradient feature of the patch is obtained for each voxel, and the filter is applied by selecting a filter corresponding to the feature closest to it. As a result of learning 100 T1 brain MRI images of HCP which is publicly opened, we showed that the performance improved by up to about 11% compared to the traditional interpolation method.

본 연구는 성락원(명승 제35호) 영벽지 공간의 원형 파악을 목적으로 주변지형을 포함한 3D 정밀데이터 취득을 통해 연못부 지반의 원형 추정을 한 결과, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 첫째, 영벽지 석구조물에 대한 용도 및 구조를 살피는 것은 이전의 형태를 밝히는데 단서가 될 것이라 판단되며, 3D 스캔방법의 적용은 주변지형을 포함한 전체적 구조를 살피는데 용이하였다. 둘째, 실측결과, 조사대상 암반부는 남북으로 7,665mm 동서로 7,326mm의 규모를 지니며, 석구조물은 $1,665mm{\times}1,721mm$의 정방형을 이루고, 그 내부에는 지름이1,664mm 반구형이며, 기단 아랫부분에는 암석이 남북 $1,006mm{\times}328mm$규모로 떨어져 나간 흔적이 발견되었다. 셋째, 영벽지 내부의 지형을 기록함에 있어 다중해상도 방식을 사용하여 광대역스캐너를 이용한 스캔작업 후 스캔데이터를 정합하여 Polygon Data로의 변환과정을 거친 후, 이를 정밀스캔데이터와 병합하여 메쉬데이터로 변환하는 과정을 거쳤다. 그리고 해상도 사진과 3차원 지형데이터를 오버랩하여 작성하였다. 넷째, 이 작업의 결과로 석구조물 서측에 회유하는 경사진 암반부 물길이를 확인되었으며, 방지원도형의 석지로 추정되는 수경시설물의 하부구조가 확인되어 암반부에 인공적으로 음각한 것임을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 1960년대 이전의 지형과 상황을 비교연구할 수 있는 토대를 생성하였다. 더불어 입체적 정밀실측데이터의 취득과 함께 발굴 당시의 원형을 디지털상에서 영구보존할 수 있게 되었다. 향후, 이 데이터는 다양한 전문가의 고증을 거쳐 영벽지 석구조물의 용도 및 보존관리방안을 수립할 기초자료로 사용될 것이다. 또한 금번 연구에서 밝혀진 3D 실측의 용이성이 정원연구에 다양하게 활용되어지길 기대한다.

인공위성 영상레이더 위상간섭기법은 널리 활용되고 있는 원격탐사 기술로서 지진, 화산, 지반침하 등으로부터 발생한 단단한 지각 표면의 변위를 매우 정밀하게 주기적으로 관측할 수 있는 연구 활용분야의 한 종류이다. 습지대 환경처럼 수상 표면에 식생이 존재하는 경우에는 지표면과 동일한 방법을 적용하여 넓은 지역에 대한 높은 공간해상도의 수위 변화 지도 제작이 가능하다. 현재 다양한 파장 대역의 인공위성 영상레이더 시스템이 운용 중에 있으며 여기에는 넓은 지역에 대한 영상을 효과적으로 획득할 수 있는 광역 관측 ScanSAR 모드를 제공하는 위성도 다수 포함되어 있다. 본 논문의 연구 지역인 콜롬비아 북부의 Ciénaga Grande de Santa Marta (CGSM) 습지대는 카리브 해안을 따라 고지대에 위치한 광대한 습지 지역이다. CGSM 습지대는 해수면 상승과 기후 변화와 같은 자연적인 원인 뿐만 아니라 20세기 후반부터 시작된 농업개발 및 도시확장 등의 다양한 인간 활동으로 인한 심각한 환경적 위협을 받고 있다. 최근 해당 습지 지역에 대한 생태학적 중요성이 대두되면서 해당 습지를 보호하고 복원하기 위한 다양한 계획이 진행 중에 있다. 주기적인 습지대 환경 모니터링에 있어 수위 변화 관측은 매우 중요한 자료를 제공하며 일반적으로 수위계와 같은 현장관측 자료 등에 의존하는 경우가 많다. 수위계의 경우 시간적으로 연속적인 자료 관측이 가능하지만 공간적 분포를 이해하기에는 어려운 경우가 많다. 본 연구에서는 현장 관측의 공간적 해상도의 부족함을 보완하기 위한 L-밴드 ALOS-2 PALSAR-2 ScanSAR 광역 관측 모드 자료의 영상레이더 위상간섭기법 습지대 수위 변화 관측 활용 가능성에 대해 평가하고자 한다. 광역 관측 모드의 공간해상도 및 위상간섭도 품질 비교를 위해 ALOS-2 PALSAR-2 stripmap 고해상 모드와 함께 분석하였다.

In tactical theater, it is crucial to detect ground moving targets and to locate them precisely. This problem can be resolved by using SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) sensors providing GMTI (Ground Moving Target Indication) capability. In general, to implement a robust GMTI sensor is not simple because of the strong competitions between target signals and clutter signals on the ground, and low speed of moving targets. Contrary to the case that a delay canceller is mostly suitable for ground surveillance radars, DPCA (Displaced Phase Centered Antenna) or STAP (Space Time Adaptive Processing) techniques have been adapted for GMT! function of modem airborne radars. In this paper, anew scheme of DPCA using two passive antennas with vertical separation is proposed, which also provides good clutter cancellation performance. The proposed scheme enables us to scan straight ahead of the carrying platform that is impossible with typical DPCA configuration. Simulations using various conditions have been performed to validate the proposed scheme, and the results are acceptable.

The prototype of the radiometric calibration algorithm, including the correction of scan mirror's angle, has been developed for the stationary meteorological sensor, firstly in Korea. We use this system on GOES-12 to evaluate two coefficients, slope and intercept. The evaluated coefficients show good agreement with the NESDIS's results for the five-case data. The calculated coefficients have been applied to the conversion from the measured counts to the radiance and the converting methods according to the scanning are investigated to enhance the radiometric accuracy.

In this paper , we propose a texture feature extraction method of reduce the massive computational time on extracting texture, features of large sized medical such as MRI, CT-scan , and an index structure, called GLTFT, to speed up the retrieval performance. For these, the original image is transformed into a compressed image by Wavelet transform , and textural features such as contrast, energy, entropy, and homogeneity of the compressed image is extracted by using GLCM(Gray Level Co-occurrence Metrix) . The proposed index structure is organized by using the textural features. The processing in compressed domain can give the solution of storage space and the reduction of computational time of feature extracting . And , by GLTFT index structure, image retrieval performance can be expected to be improved by reducing the retrieval range . Our experiment on 270 MRIs as image database shows that shows that such expectation can be got.

Statistical analyses for spatial data are important features for various types of fields. Spatial data are taken at specific locations or within specific regions and their relative positions are recorded. Lattice data are synoptic observation covering an entire spatial region, like cancer rates corresponding to each county in a state. Until now, the echelon analysis has been applied only to univariate spatial data. As a result, it is impossible to detect the hotspots on the multivariate spatial data In this paper, we expand the spatial data to time series structure. And then we analyze them on the time space and detect the hotspots. Echelon dendrogram has been made by piling up each multivariate spatial data to bring time spatial data. We perform the structural analysis of temporal spatial data.
