목적 : 선형가속기의 광자선을 이용한 두개내 소병변의 방사선수술에서 다중회전조사와 횡다중회전조사를 병용한 방사선 수술방법을 개발하고, 컴퓨터단층영상을 재구성한 방사선수술계획을 통해 선량분포를 비교하여 병변이외 정상조직의 선량을 줄이기 위한 선량변수를 구하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 선형가속기 6 MV 광자선을 이용하여 치료대 각과 선원지지체 회전 및 환자체위변위를 이용한 입체적 다중 및 횡다중회전조사를 조사하여 선량분포를 비교하였다. 입체적 선량분포와 횡단면, 시상면 및 관상면 치료대 영상재구성의 선량분포는 본 대학에서 개발한 방사선수술기구 및 소프트웨어 (Photon Knife)를 통해 이루어졌다. 입체적 다중회전조사에 의해 얻은 선량은 치료대 각이 20, 50, 120, 160 도, 각각의 선원지지체 회전각은 20-160도이며, 다중회전조사의 치료대각 30, 150도와 횡다중회전조사의 치료대각 30, 150도에 선원 회전각 20-160도를 입체조사하여 비교하였다. 결과 : 선형가속기를 이용한 방사선수술선량분포는 동일 콜리메이터에서도 치료대와 선원지지체 각에 따라 크게 변하였다. 입체횡다중회전조사를 시행한 경우 표적을 중심으로 전후방향의 선량분포는 다중회전조사만을 사용한 경우보다 선량기울기가 증가하여 정상뇌조직의 손상을 더 감소시킬 수 있음을 알 수 있었으며, 병변주위의 치명장기 위치에 따라 방사선 회전 방향을 적절히 정할 수 있다. 방사선수술의 입체선량과 주위 장기 및 표적의 On-Target 입체화는 방사선수술의 정확성, 복수개의 표적중심결정과 주위정상장기의 선량포함범위를 비교적 정확하게 보여줌을 알 수 있다. 결론 : 방사선수술선량계획의 입체화는 선량과 표적 및 주위장기의 선량범위를 입체적으로 정할 뿐만 아니라, 표적의 모양이 불규칙형일 때는 복수개의 표적중심결정에 필수적임을 알 수 있었다. 다중회전조사와 횡다중회전조사를 병합한 방사선수술은 표적주위의 치명정상장기의 손상을 줄이기 위해 총회전각의 변화없이 치명장기에 도달될 선량을 줄일 수 있으며, 25 mm 직경의 콜리메이터를 사용한 선량분포는 $80-50\%$의 간격이 $1.1\~3.0 mm$, $90\~50\%$는 $2.0\~3.0mm$를 나타내었다.

목적: 위암의 조기발견이 갈수록 많아져서 근래에는 수술 환자에서 조기위암의 비율이 50%를 넘고 있다. 그런데 조기위암은 수술 중 촉각이나 시각에 의해 인지되지 않는 경우가 드물지 않게 있으며 수술 전 위 내시경조차도 병변의 위치에 대한 정확한 정보를 제공하지 못하여 술 중에 절제범위를 결정하는 데 어려움이 있다. 저자들은 이 연구를 통하여 1) CT gastrography를 이용하여 해부학적 경계지점에서부터 조기 위암 병변까지의 생체내 실제의 표면 거리를 측정할 수 있는 소프트웨어를 개발하고 2) 개발된 소프트웨어에 의해 측정된 거리와 술 후 병리 표본에 의해 측정된 거리를 비교하여 수술에서의 유용성을 알고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2004년 1월부터 2005년 9월까지 경북대학교 병원에서 술 전 복부 3차원 CT gastrography를 촬영하고 위 절제술을 시행한 60명의 조기 위암 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 이들은 남자 45명, 여자 15명이었으며 평균 연령은 57.8세였다. 수술 전 컴퓨터 단층촬영은 5 Fr 비위장관을 통해 실내 공기를 흡입시킨 후 시행되었고 이 영상은 절편 두께 0.625 mm의 thin section과 kVp:120, mAs:200의 low dose radiation의 Protocol을 적용하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 표면거리 측정 소프트웨어를 Rapidia 2.8 CT 3차원 재구성 프로그램과 연동하여 3차원 볼륨 렌더링 및 조기 위암 병변에서 유문, 또는 분문까지의 표면 거리를 측정하였고, 술 후 병리 표본에 의해 측정된 거리와 개발된 소프트웨어에 의해 술 전 생체 내에서 측정된 거리 사이의 관계를 평가하였다. 결과: 병소와 유문, 또는 분문 사이의 거리에 대한 병리 표본과 CT gastrography로부터 측정된 거리간의 차이는 $5.04{\pm}2.97\;mm(range,\;0{\sim}11\;mm)$였으며 CT gastrography에 기초한 거리측정은 병리표본에 비하여 18명의 환자에서는 더 길었고 3명의 환자에서는 더 짧았다. CT gastrography로 측정된 술 전 생체 내 표면거리와 술 후 병리 표본에서 측정된 거리 사이에는 유의한 상관관계가 있었다(r=0.995, P<0.01). 결론: 이러한 결과들은 해부학적 경계지점으로부터 조기위암 병변까지의 표면 거리가 CT gastrography에 의해 정확하게 측정될 수 있다는 사실을 시사한다. 이 기법은 수술적 절제의 적절한 범위를 결정하기 위한 조기 위암의 술 전 위치 결정에 이용될 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

목적: 원위부 위절제술 후 재건술의 하나인 Billroth II 위공장문합술은 오랫동안 사용되어온 방법이나 역류성 위염의 빈도가 높다는 것이 문제점 중의 하나이다. 이를 보완하기 위한 여러 시도가 있었으나 그 중 잔위의 크기에 따라 Roux-en-Y 위공장문합술, Braun 공장문합술 및 Billroth II 위공장문합술을 달리 시행한 후 그 적용의 적합성을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2003년 9월부터 2007년 4월까지 하부 및 중위 위선암으로 단일 술자에 의해 원위부 위절제를 받은 후 잔위의 크기가 10% 이하일 때 Roux-en-Y 위공장문합술 (14명)을, 잔위가 10~20%일 때 Braun 공장문합술(17명)을, 잔위가 20~40%일 때 Billroth I이 부적합하다고 판단된 경우 - Billroth II 위공장문합술(14명)을 시행 후, 각각의 치료성적을 분석하였다. 분석 방법은 전화 설문과 의무기록을 조사하여 환자의 증상 및 내시경 소견을 평가하였고 술 후 영양 상태를 평가하기 위하여 혈중알부민, 혈색소농도 및 체중의 변화를 측정하였다. 결과: 수술 사망률 0%, 수술 합병률 8.9% (4/45)로 모든 수술은 안전하게 시행되었다. 내시경 소견에서 역류성 위염은 Roux-en-Y군, Braun군 및 Billroth II군에서 각각 7.63%, 18.65%, 40.0%에서 보였다(P=0.13). 가벼운 역류성 식도염이 Roux-Y군과 Braun군에서 각각 1명씩 있었다. 내시경적 위저류는 Roux-en-Y군에서 2예가 보였으며 이 중 1예는 역류성식도염의 원인이 되었다. Roux-en-Y군과 Braun군이 Billroth II 군보다 식사량의 감소가 적었으며(각각 7.1%, 0.0%, 28.7%, P=0.036), 식후 불편감(각각 14.3%, 23.5%, 57.1%, P=0.035)과 역류 증상(각각 0.0%, 11.8%, 42.9%, P=0.009)을 적게 호소하였다. 결론: 작은 잔위를 가지는 환자에서 시행된 Roux-en-Y 위공장문합술과 Braun 공장문합술은 역류증상의 방지와 위절제 후 불편감을 줄이는데 효과적이라고 생각하며, 10% 미만의 잔위에서는 Roux-en-Y를, 그 외의 경우에는 Braun 문합을 확대적용을 고려하는 것이 좋겠다.

양전자 방출 단층촬영은 세포의 생화학적 변화에 따른 방사성의약품의 집적 정도를 영상화함으로서 암을 조기에 진단할 수 있는 검사방법으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 집적 정도는 여러 가지 원인에 따라 발생될 수 있는 것으로 $^{18}F$-FDG 주사량, 종양의 크기, 혈중 포도당 농도 등이 있다. 본 연구에서는 집적방사능과 2D와 3D 영상 획득이 방사능 농도(kBq/mL)에 미치는 영향에 대하여 평가하고자 한다. GE Discovery STe 16 PET/CT에서 1994 NEMA PET phantom을 이용하였으며, 배후방사능과 열소의 방사능 농도비가 1:2, 1:4, 1:8, 1:10, 1:20, 1:30 표준이 되도록 하여 2D와 3D로 영상을 획득하였다. 재구성 방법으로 2D와 3D 모두에서 반복연산법으로 반복횟수 2회, 부분집합 20을 적용하였다. 그리고 CT 감쇠보정법과 획득 시간은 10분으로 설정하였다. 또한 영상분석은 열소의 중심과 배후방사능에 동일한 관심영역을 설정 한 후 각 부분의 방사능 농도를 측정하여 비교 분석하였다. 설정된 관심영역의 배후방사능과 열소의 방사능 농도 비는 2D에서 1:1.93, 1:3.86, 1:7.79, 1:8.04, 1:18.72, 1:26.90, 3D는 1:1.95, 1:3.71, 1:7.10, 1:7.49, 1:15.10, 1:23.24 값을 얻었다. 또한 표준 방사능 농도비를 기준으로 한 백분율 차이(% Difference)는 2D에서 3.50%, 3.47%, 8.12%, 8.02%, 10.58%, 11.06%로 최소 3.47%에서 최대 11.06% 차이가 있고 3D는 3.66%, 4.80%, 8.38%, 23.92%, 23.86%, 22.69%로 최소 3.66%에서 최대 23.92%까지의 차이를 나타냈다. 방사능 농도가 증가할수록 실제 집적된 방사능 농도의 차이가 커짐을 알 수 있으며, 2D가 3D보다 평균 약 10.6% 높게 집적되어 방사능 농도 변화에 영향을 적게 받는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 임상환자의 추적 검사에서 영상 획득 방법을 변화할 시 정확한 정량 평가를 위해서 이점을 고려하여 적용하여야 한다.

미술은 한 사회의 정치, 경제, 사회, 문화가 만들어낸 시대적 산물이다. 최근의 디지털 매체의 발전은 예술에서 표현을 확장하는데 기여하였다. 디지털 매체는 이미지뿐만 아니라 소리나 물리적 지각 반응을 예술 창작의 한 요소로써 활용하는 것을 가능하게 한다. 또한 디지털 매체는 이미지, 소리, 빛, 그리고 다양한 조형 요소들 간의 재 융합이나 관객의 물리적 반응의 결합을 통해서 작품과 관객과 상호소통적인 공감각적이고 시지각적인 환경을 창출하도록 돕는다. 본 연구에서는 최근에 소리에 반응하는 다양한 미디어아트 작품들이 제작되고 있는데, 주로 관객이나 외부의 자극으로부터 발생되는 소리의 물리적 데이터를 시각화하는 작업에 초점을 두고 시지각적 관점에서 소리의 반응에 따른 데이터의 시각화와 작품의 이미지와 관객의 반응 관계 등을 분석하였다. 외부의 소리로부터 생성되는 물리적 데이터는 여러 가지 관점에서 분석될 수 있다. 예를 들면, 음성이나 외부 소리의 고저(pitch), 음량, 또는 주파수 분석을 통해서 데이터 분류가 가능하다. 본 연구자는 관객의 음성이나 외부의 물리적 자극을 통해서 발생되는 소리의 주파수를 분석하여 이에 상응하여 발광하는 LED기반 시각화 연구를 통해서 최근 새로운 미디어아트의 가능성을 모색하고, 실시간으로 생성될 수 있는 물리적 데이터들을 빛(LED)의 환영적 특성으로 변환함으로써 우연하게 관객에 반응하여 생성되는 다양한 시각이미지의 연출 가능성을 탐구하였다. 결과적으로 연구자는 사운드에 반응하는 시지각적인 인터랙티브 작품을 구현해보기 위하여 피에트 몬드리안(Piet Mondrian, 1872~1944)의 브로드웨이 부기우기(Broadway Boogie Woogie, 1942~3)작품을 모티브로 삼았다. 몬드리앙은 회화의 본질적인 표현 요소들을 단순화하는 작업으로 불필요하다고 생각된 요소들을 하나씩 제거하여 색, 수직선, 수평선으로 대상을 추상화시킴으로써 그 대상의 본질에 다가가고자 하였다. 연구자는 몬드리앙의 이러한 단순화된 구성을 외부의 소리 자극을 단순화하여 빛(LED)의 요소로 재현하는 시각적 표현의 메타포로 사용하였고, 몬드리앙의 정적 구성에서 빛과 소리의 공감각적인 표현을 극대화하는 동적 구성으로의 관객의 참여를 유도하는 환경을 구현해 보았다.

Loss of maxillary molar teeth leads to rapid loss of crestal bone and inferior expansion of the maxillary sinus floor (secondary pneumatization). Rehabilitation of the site with osseointegrated dental implants often represents a clinical challenge because of the insufficient bone volume resulted from this phenomenon. Boyne & James proposed the classic procedure for maxillary sinus floor elevation entails preparation of a trap door including the Schneiderian membrane in the lateral sinus wall. Summers proposed another non-invasive method using a set of osteotome and the osteotome sinus floor elevation (OSFE) was proposed for implant sites with at least 5-6mm of bone between the alveolar crest and the maxillary sinus floor. The change of grafted material in maxillary sinus is important for implant survival and the evaluation of graft height after maxillary sinus floor elevation is composed of histologic evaluation and radiomorphometric evaluation. The aim of the present study was radiographically evaluate the graft height change after maxillary sinus floor elevation and the influence of the graft material type in height change and the bone remodeling of grafts in sinus. A total of 59 patients (28 in lateral approach and 31 in crestal approach) who underwent maxillary sinus floor elevation composed of lateral approach and crestal approach were radiographically followed for up to about 48 months. Change in sinusgraft height were calculated with respect to implant length (IL) and grafted sinus height(BL). It was evaluated the change of the graft height according to time, the influence of the approach technique (staged approach and simultaneous approach) in lateral approach to change of the graft height, and the influence of the type of graft materials to change of the graft height. Patients were divided into three class based on the height of the grafted sinus floor relative to the implant apex and evaluated the proportion change of that class (Class I, in which the grafted sinus floor was above the implant apex; Class II, in which the implant apex was level with the grafted sinus floor; and Class III, in which the grafted sinus floor was below the implant apex). And it was evaluated th bone remodeling in sinus during 12 months using SGRl(by $Br\ddot{a}gger$ et al). The result was like that; Sinus graft height decreased significantly in both lateral approach and crestal approach in first 12 months (p$MBCP^{TM}$ had minimum height loss. Class III and Class II was increased by time in both lateral and crestal approach and Class I was decreased by time. SGRI was increased statistically significantly from baseline to 3 months and 3 months(p<0.05) to 12 months(p$ICB^{(R)}$ single use, more reduction of sinusgraft height was appeared. Therefore we speculated that the mixture of graft materials is preferable as a reduction of graft materials. Increasing of the SGRI as time goes by explains the stability of implant, but additional histologic or computed tomographic study will be needed for accurate conclusion. From the radiographic evaluation, we come to know that placement of dental implant with sinus floor elevation is an effective procedure in atrophic maxillary reconstruction.

PET/CT검사에 있어서 CT는 해부학적인 정보를 제공할 뿐 아니라 PET영상에 대한 감약 정보를 제공하는 역할을 하고 있다. CT의 감약차를 이용하는 것으로서 검사 부위에 존재하는 여러 가지 변수에 의해 그 정도가 달라질 수 있다. 이것은 현재 본 원에서 PET/CT검사 시에 팔을 몸 옆에 두고 검사하는 것에도 적용할 수 있으며, 이에 본 논문에서는 일부 타 병원에서 시행하고 있는 팔을 머리 위로 올리고 검사하는 방법과 함께 CT값의 변화에 따른 표준섭취계수의 변화를 비교 연구했다. NEMA 1994 PET 모형의 삽입체와 모형의 부피를 고려하여 4:1의 비율로 $^{18}F$-FDG를 주입하였다. 먼저 테플론 삽입체 두 개를 NEMA 1994 PET 모형의 양 옆에 고정시켜 팔을 내리고 있는 상태를 가정하여 영상을 얻었으며 테플론 삽입체를 제거하여 팔을 머리 위로 올린 상태를 가정하여 영상을 얻었다. 앞의 과정을 거쳐 얻은 영상을 재구성 하여 Volume Viewer를 이용해 한 영상면 당 5개의 관심 체적을 설정했고 각 측정값을 평균하여 얻어낸 CT값과 표준섭취계수로 그 변화를 측정하였다. 측정된 값과 폐 관련 암환자의 간에 관심 영역을 설정하고 측정한 값을 비교하여 실제 임상 영상에서의 차이를 측정하였다. 모형 실험결과 테플론 삽입체를 부착하였을 때보다 테플론 삽입체를 부착하지 않았을 때 CT값이 -5.8 HU에서 0 HU으로 평균 5.8 HU 증가하였고 표준섭취계수는 24.64에서 24.29로 평균 0.35 감소하였다. 축방향 균일도는 0.064에서 0.052로 평균 0.012 감소하였다. 환자 실험결과 팔을 내리고 검사하였을 때보다 팔을 머리 위로 올리고 검사하였을 때 CT값은 54.1 HU에서 59.9 HU로 평균 5.8 HU 증가하였고 표준섭취계수는 2.02에서 1.85로 평균 0.17 감소하였다. 테플론 삽입물을 부착한 상태로 검사할 때 보다 테플론 삽입물을 부착하지 않은 상태로 검사할 때 CT값은 증가하고 표준섭취계수는 감소하는 양상을 보였다. 이러한 현상이 일어나는 이유는 감약의 정도와 표준섭취계수의 상관관계에서 찾을 수 있다. CT값이 증가할수록 감약 계수는 비례하여 증가하는데 이것은 결국 CT값이 증가될수록 감약이 증가된다고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 팔에 의해 감약이 과다하게 측정될 수 있으므로 결국 표준섭취계수의 증가로 이어진다고 판단된다. 하지만 그 값의 차이가 매우 적어 진단적으로 유의한 범위라고 볼 수 없다. 팔을 머리 위로 올리고 검사하는 자세가 어깨 및 팔에의 $^{18}F$-FDG섭취와 환자의 고통을 야기하게 된다는 점들을 종합하여 고려해 보았을 때, PET/CT검사 시에는 팔을 내리고 검사하는 것이 합리적이나, 환자의 상태 및 영상의 질적 측면을 고려하여 결정하여야 하겠다.

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.

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.SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

《해악전도첩(海嶽全圖帖)》은 금강산과 해금강, 관동팔경을 그린 60점의 실경산수화와 51편의 기문(記文)으로 이루어진 화첩으로 규모와 화풍에 있어 보기 드문 작품이다. 그림의 특징은 화면을 가득 채운 구성과 남종화풍을 따르면서도 거칠고 파격적인 화법, 산석(山石)의 기하학적이고 입체적인 표현 등이다. 1973년의 특별전, '한국미술이천년(韓國美術二千年)'을 처음으로 화첩의 일부만 공개되었던 작품은 2019년 국립중앙박물관 특별전 '우리 강산을 그리다: 화가의 시선, 조선시대 실경산수화'에서 그 전모가 공개되었다. 《해악전도첩》이 김응환(金應煥)(1742~1789)의 작품으로 알려진 것은 화첩의 마지막 장에 쓰여진 관지(款識)와 현재 행방이 묘연한 <칠보대>에 찍힌 '복헌'이라는 도장 때문이었다. 그러나 김응환을 지시하는 관지와 도장은 모두 후대에 더해졌을 가능성이 크다. 본 연구는 화첩을 둘러싼 여러 요소를 고찰하여 제작자를 재검토하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 《해악전도첩》 제작 배경을 이해하기 위해 먼저 18세기 금강산 기행사경도의 전통과 봉명사경을 살펴보았다. 정선(鄭敾)(1676~1759)의 《신묘년풍악도첩(辛卯年楓嶽圖)帖》(1711)을 비롯하여 심사정(沈師正)(1707~1769), 김윤겸(金允謙)(1711~1775), 최북(崔北)(1712~1786 이후), 강세황(姜世晃)(1713~1791) 등은 조선 후기 최고의 여행지였던 금강산을 유람하고 기행사경도를 제작하였다. 화가들은 이전의 전통을 계승하여 내금강의 명승명소를 주로 그렸고, 자신들이 경험한 장소를 새롭게 시각화하였다. 이러한 기행사경도는 여행을 기념하며 동행자나 후원자를 위해 여러 장면을 담을 수 있는 화첩 형식으로 제작되었다. 개별적인 금강산 기행사 경도의 제작이 증가하는 가운데 1788년에 정조(正祖)(재위 1776~1800)가 도화서 화원인 김응환과 김홍도(金弘道)(1745~1806 이후)에게 영동9군과 금강산의 명승(名勝)을 그려오도록 명한 일은 공적 업무였다. 정조는 이들의 관계 및 지방관으로서의 경력, 서로 다른 화풍 등을 고려해 봉명사경의 화원으로 선발하였다. 김응환과 김홍도는 영조(英祖)(재위 1724~1776)조부터 도화서 화원으로 활동하며 선후배이자 동료로서 친밀한 관계를 유지했다. 나아가 이들은 영남 지역의 찰방(察訪)으로서 지방관의 업무를 수행한 경험이 있었다. 두 화원의 화풍은 서로 달라 김홍도는 부드럽고도 섬세하게 필선을 운용한 반면, 김응환은 굳세면서도 울창한 풍치를 잘 표현했다. 두 명의 화원은 각자의 개성으로 봉명사경 기간 동안 100여 폭의 초본을 그렸고, 이를 선별하여 60~70여 폭의 화첩 혹은 두루마리를 완성하였다. 이들의 그림은 18세기 전중반에 내금강과 관동팔경 위주로 제작된 금강산 기행사경도의 전통을 더욱 풍부하게 했고 영동과 외금강의 명승명소를 새롭게 발견하며 소재를 확장시켰다. 현재 《해악전도첩》은 원(元), 형(亨), 이(利), 정(貞) 4책으로 이루어졌는데, 원(元), 형(亨)책은 내금강의 그림 29점이며 이(利)책은 외금강의 장면 17점, 정(貞)책은 해금강과 관동팔경 14점으로 구성되었다. 비단 위에 그려진 각 그림은 기하학적으로 산석을 표현했으며, 연백으로 금강산의 암봉을 흰색 혹은 회청색으로 표현했다. 《해악전도첩》의 구도와 화법은 정선, 강세황, 심사정, 정충엽(鄭忠燁)(1725~1800 이후), 김응환, 김홍도의 화법과 비교할 수 있어 18세기 후반의 시대 양식을 갖는다. 특히 화첩의 일부 그림은 김홍도의 《해동명산도첩(海東名山圖帖)》(1788)과 구성 및 회화적 모티프가 매우 유사하여 두 화첩간의 연관성을 보여준다. 반면에 <영랑호>, <해산정>, <월송정> 등은 김홍도의 그림과는 구별된다. 이를 통해 화가가 김홍도와 영향을 주고받으면서도 자신만의 개성적인 화첩을 제작했음을 추측해 볼 수 있다. 《해악전도첩》에는 다른 화첩에는 등장하지 않는 <자운담>, <백운대>, <안문점망비로봉>, <백정봉> 등이 포함되어 있으며 각 장면마다 경물의 특징을 구체적이고 참신하게 묘사하였다. 특히, 화가는 산석을 기하학적으로 표현하고 선과 면을 도드라지게 하여 입체감을 강조하였다. 그는 남종화풍을 바탕으로 자신만의 화법을 확립했고 이를 자유자재로 운용하면서 화면에 동적인 리듬감을 부여했다. 이처럼 60점의 그림은 거칠고 파격적으로 보이지만 나름의 질서 안에서 일관성을 견지하고 있다. 본고는 화법과 봉명사경의 정황을 종합해 《해악전도첩》의 제작자를 김응환으로 추론하였다. 나아가 김하종(金夏鍾)(1793~1878 이후)의 《풍악권(楓嶽卷)》(1865년 이후)과의 친연성은 《해악전도첩》의 화가를 김응환으로 추정한 또 하나의 이유였다. 《해악전도첩》은 김홍도의 《해산첩》과는 달리 후대에 미친 영향력이 미비한데 김하종의 《풍악권》만이 《해악전도첩》의 소재와 화법을 따르고 있다. 김하종은 《풍악권》에서 50년 전, 춘천부사 이광문(李光文)(1778~1838)을 위해 제작한 《해산도첩》(1816)과는 전혀 다른 화법을 구사했다. 그는 김응환의 《해악전도첩》과 유사한 구성과 회화적 요소, 화보식 인물표현을 따르면서 사의적인 분위기를 강조하였다. 개성김씨의 일원이자 김응환의 종손인 김하종은 가문에 전해지는 《해악전도첩》류의 그림을 감상했고 이를 새롭게 번안했다고 추측된다. 화첩에 포함된 51편의 기문은 그림 다음 장에서 그려진 장소를 설명하고 있어 각 그림을 이해하고 감상하는 데 도움을 준다. 기문은 그림과 밀접한 관계를 가지며 앞의 장소로부터의 이동 정보, 이름의 유래, 지형적 특징, 관련 정보 등이 서술되었다. 이와 같은 백과사전식 혹은 지리지와 같은 기문은 19세기 전반에 나타나기 시작했으며, 금강산 화첩류에 더해졌다. 《해악전도첩》의 백화암 기문에는 1845년의 암자에 대한 중건 내용이 기록되어, 기문의 연대를 추정하는 중요한 근거가 되었다. 김하종에게 《풍악권》을 주문한 이유원(李裕元)(1814~1888)도 각 그림에 글을 붙였는데 이 글들은 김응환의 화첩에 포함된 기문 51편과 내용 및 서술방식이 흡사하다. 이유원의 기문은 《해악전도첩》의 기문이나 그 초고(원본)와 관련성이 높지만 두 화첩의 기문 필사의 선후관계를 판정하는 데에는 좀더 면밀한 검토가 필요하다. 《해악전도첩》은 김홍도의 봉명사경 초본 및 김홍도의 영향으로 제작된 19세기의 금강산 화첩과는 구별된다. 이 화첩은 화원 김응환의 회화세계를 이해할 수 있는 지평을 넓히고 18세기 후반 실경산수화의 또 다른 층위를 보여주고 있어 중요한 의미를 갖는다.
