In these days the virtual reality technology has been applied to treat such an anxiety disorders. And also a medical doctor can diagnose the patient in distance with the telemedicine system. In this thesis, an telemedicine assistant system for treatment of acrophobia using biomedical signals and virtual reality technique is proposed. I made two virtual reality simulations for treatment of acrophobia and telemedicine system for communication between doctor and patient using personal computer. Multimedia conference service, online questionary, signal transfer system are needed to configure such system. Virtual reality simulation system that composed of position sensor, head mount display, and audio system, is also included in this telemedicine system. I added virtual environment update system to this virtual reality telemedicine system for treatment of acrophobia. With this virtual environment update system, the doctors can change virtual reality simulation stage based on the status of each patient and symptom of phobia. We will apply this system to the acrophobia patient in distance and be able to offer better medical treatment for mental illness in near future.

Acrophobia is a symptom of feeling an abnormal fear of heights. Medications or cognitive-behavior methods have been mainly used to treat the acrophobia. In these days the virtua1 reality technology has been applied to treat such an anxiety disorders. In this thesis, an telemedicine assistant system for treatment of acrophobia using biomedical signals and virtual reality technique is proposed. I made two virtual reality simulations for treatment of acrophobia and telemedicine system for communication between doctor and patient using personal computer. A virtual environment provides patient with stimuli which arouses phobia, and exposition to such environment makes him have ability to overcome the fear. Recently, the patient can take diagnosis from a medical doctor in distance with the telemedicine system. Multimedia conference service, on-line questionary, signal transfer system are needed to configure such system. Virtual reality simulation system that composed of position sensor, head mount display, and audio system, is also included in this telemedicine system. I added virtual environment update system to this virtual reality telemedicine system for treatment of acrophobia. Former acrophobia treatment systems use only patient's score of the questionary to appraise. The new system developed in this thesis uses not only patient's score of the questionary but also biomedical signals such as HR, GSR amplitude, GSR RT to increase the objectivity and quantitativity. The experimental results show that HR and GSR amplitude are useful for decision of acrophobia. We will apply this system to the acrophobia patient in distance and be able to offer better medical treatment for mental illness in near future.

It is possible to design dental prosthesis in harmony with the patient's face and functional pathway using virtual patient created by integrating 3D diagnostic data such as intraoral scan, facial scan and jaw motion data. Also, esthetic teeth-gingiva relationship can be obtained, and post-surgical gingival outline can be predicted by using CAD software designed 3D surgical template during gingivectomy procedure. In this case report, 3D diagnostic data was collected from patients in need of esthetic anterior restoration, integrated on CAD software and applied to virtual articulator. Treatment outcome was simulated by creating virtual patient with dynamic occlusion. Esthetic anterior fixed restoration was fabricated by applying 3D surgical template designed on CAD software to gingivectomy procedure. To make sure that anterior guidance was formed in harmony with the patient's function pathway, occlusion was assessed following every step. The results were both functionally and esthetically satisfying.

Digital imaging is emerging as a standard method for patient documentation in clinical setting. Managing patient expectations before aesthetic surgery can greatly improve patient satisfaction after surgery. The patient who visited for plastic surgery wants a predicted figure after the operation. A virtual plastic surgery software is necessary in order to satisfy the desire of patients. Adobe $Photoshop^{(R)}$ is the professional standard in desktop digital imaging, offers indispensable new features for graphic and web design, photography, and video. Using imaging technology, it takes just minutes to realistically simulate the results of double eyelid operation, liposuction, rhinoplasty or any other aesthetic procedure. The aim of this study is to analyze the significance of the digital image processing and to introduce the virtual plastic surgery using Adobe $Photoshop^{(R)}$.

디지털 기술은 점차 그 영역을 넓혀 치의학의 여러 분야에 큰 영향을 미치고 있다. 최근 디지털 치의학에서는 다양한 삼차원적(3D) 이미지 데이터를 하나로 중첩시켜 진단 및 보철물 제작에 활용하는 것의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 안면 스캔, 구내 스캔, 하악 운동 기록(mandibular movement recording) 등의 데이터를 통합하면 가상 환자 모델을 구성할 수 있다. 가상 환자(Virtual patient)란 구내 및 구외 연조직, 잔존 치열, 동적 교합 등 디지털 3D 진단 데이터를 통합하여 형성되며 이를 통해 보철 치료의 결과 등을 가상으로 시뮬레이션을 시행할 수 있다. 본 증례에서의 환자는 37세 여성 및 55세 여성 환자로 각각 기존 보철물의 외형이 틀어진 것 같다는 주소와 근관치료 후 전치부 보철물의 재제작을 주소로 내원하였다. 각 환자에서 3D 안면 스캔을 채득하였으며, ARCUS Digma 2 (KaVo Dental GmbH, Biberach an der Riss, Germany)를 통해 환자의 하악 운동을 기록하였다. 수집한 데이터를 computer-aided design (CAD) 소프트웨어(Exocad dental CAD; exocad GmbH, Darmstadt, Germany) 상에서 하나로 통합하여 가상 교합기에 옮겨 디지털 가상 환자를 형성하였다. 이를 통해 임시 고정성 보철물을 디자인하고 수복하여 평가하였으며, 최종수복물로 옮겨 심미적, 기능적으로 만족할 만한 결과를 보였기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.

Most Asians have a nose with a short columella and a low dorsum; augmentation rhinoplasty using implants is commonly performed in Asian countries to achieve a taller and more well-defined nasal dorsum. However, the current knowledge is insufficient to fully understand the various subjective desires of patients, reflect on them during surgery, or to objectively analyze the results after surgery. Advances in digital imaging technologies, such as 3D printing and 3D scanning, have transformed the medical system from hospital-centric to patient-centric throughout the medical field. In this study, we applied these techniques to rhinoplasty. First, we used virtual 3D plastic surgery software to enable surgical planning through objectified numerical calculations based on the visualized data of the patient's medical images rather than simple virtual plastic surgery. Second, the customized nasal implant was manufactured by reflecting the patient's anatomical shape and virtual 3D plastic surgery data. Taken together, we describe the surgical results of applying these rhinoplasty solutions in four patients. Our experience indicates that high fidelity and patient satisfaction can be achieved by applying these techniques.

Purpose : The aims of this study was to conduct a systematic literature review with meta-analysis to investigate the effect of virtual reality based rehabilitation program on balance of patient with stroke in Korean studies. Method : The studies for analysis were searched in electronic databases(Research Information Sharing Service; RISS, Korean Studies Information Service; KISS, DBpia, e-articles, National Assembly Library). The key words for search were 'virtual reality', 'stroke', and 'balance' and only randomized controlled trials and clinical controlled trials were included. Of 40 studies identified in the search, 20 studies met the criteria of this study and included in this meta-analysis. Result : The results were as follows: 1) The overall effect size of virtual reality based rehabilitation program was 0.557(95% critical interval; 0.340~0.774). 2) In the analysis of sub-categorical variables, effect size was as follows; the commercial game type(0.621) > virtual environment type(0.335); the dynamic balance measurement(0.750) > static balance measurement(0.226); randomized controlled trial(0.653) > clinical controlled trial(0.275); and thesis type(0.706) > article of journal type(0.339). 3) In the analysis of sub-continuous variables, as time of program(per session) increased, the balance increased(p<0.05). Conclusion : The results of this study showed that virtual reality based rehabilitation program moderately improves the balance of stroke patient. Further studies are recommended to investigate the effect of sub-variables related to virtual reality programs on motor functions of patient with stroke.

Telecare, one of the e-healthcare services with lCT, is a promising technology which aims to monitor the state of patients and then provide the medical services appropriately in remote sites. Virtual telecare team based on the concept of virtual collaborative teams which consist of a patient, a doctor, and a telecare team, operates on a temporary basis in need. Reputation, which means the degree of a patient's belief to a doctor in consideration, is the most important factor to make the virtual telecare team trustable. In this paper, we propose the fuzzy reputation model of a virtual telecare team, which is a reputation-based trust model based on fuzzy set theory. An illustrative example is also given in order to show the applicability of the model to the concept of a virtual telecare team.
