  • The aim of this study is to investigate PAE, as the result of the test of kVp accuracy, according to detector measurement method. Based on the indicated value of 70kVp, each distance between a focus and a kVp meter was 100cm, 80cm and 60cm and the angle of X-ray tube was set on $5^{\circ},\;10^{\circ},\;15^{\circ},\;20^{\circ},\;25^{\circ},\;30^{\circ}$. Each indicated value, 60kVp, 70kVp, 80kVp, 90kVp and 100 kVp, was used compare Small focus with Large focus. As a result, PAE on the side of cathode was higher than it on the side of anode in the case of 100cm and PAE on the side of anode was higher in the case of 80cm and 60cm. The coefficient rate was stable both the side of cathode and anode in the case of 100cm and it was fluctuated in the case of 80cm and 60cm. PAE in the case of Small focus was higher than Large focus and it was disproportionate to an indicated value. Error rate was in inverse proportion to the indicated value.

  • The focal spot of electron beam depending on the anode angle in the structure and major parts of the X-ray tube was investigated by the OPERA-3D/SCALAR simulation program. The simulation worked on four spaces with with two spaces, including anode and cathode of X-ray tube, by applying the finite element method analysis. The analytical model and dimension for the emission orbit of thermal electrons made from one filament of the focused X-ray cathode is affected to the penumbra of detector for the X-ray depending on any real focal spot size. The model shape of focusing cap and focusing tube with an anode target angle and a cathode filament is analyzed by the current density distribution of thermal electrons. The focusing width of thermal electrons for the X-ray tube depended on the anode angle (${\theta}$). The focusing value of electron beams at a region of anode angle having $10^{\circ}{\sim}17^{\circ}$ maintained to below value of $70{\mu}m$. The minimum focal size of the electron beam was $40{\mu}m$ at an anode angle of $15^{\circ}$. The focused X-ray tube of many variables depended on the thermionic emission of hot electrons from the target trajectory. The focusing tube will contribute to the real design of X-ray for the development of future diagnosis medical device.

  • A 50 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thick niobium filter and its quantitatively determined aluminum equivalent filter were evaluated for effects on entrance skin dose, image quality, and x-ray tube loading for three different tube voltages in radiology. There was no significant difference in the reducion in entrance skin dose and increase in tube loading between two filters while keeping radiographic contrast on the film. For the clinical use of the aluminum equivalent filter as an alternative to the niobium filter in radiology, aluminum equivalent filter thickness at the mid energy range of radiology, 90 kVp, was measured and the filter was applied to the other kVp values, 73 and 125 kVps, to evaluate the effect on the entrance skin dose and tube loading. There was no significant difference between two filter cases at the selected kVp. The aluminum filter with equivalent thickness can be used as an inexpensive alternative to the niobium filter.

  • 이 연구는 x-선 투과영상을 이용하여 홍삼의 내공을 검출하기 위하여 수행되었다. 이를 위하여 x-선관에 조사되는 x-ray 양의 차이에 따른 위치별 밝기 값 차이를 보정하고 내공 검출에 적합한 영상처리 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 주요연구 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) x-선관에 조사되는 x-ray양은 중심에서 가장자리로 갈수록 감소하며, 이것은 위치에 따른 gray 값의 분포가 달라지게 되는 원인이 되었다. 2) 홍삼을 2치화 하기 위해서는 동일한 x-선 조사강도에서 입력된 원 영상에서 빈 영상을 뺀 감산 영상을 만들어 줌으로써 가능하였다. 3) 조사강도 별 감산영상처리 결과 36kV/4.15mA와 39kV/4.15mA에서는 조사량이 많아서 홈삼 지근 부분의 영상이 손실되는 경우가 발생하였다. 4) 내공 검출을 위해서는 정상부분과 내공부분의 자기 값 차이를 크게 하는 전처리 영상을 만들 필요가 있었고, multiple 감산영상에서 뚜렷한 골짜기가 나타났으나 주근의 내공부분의 밝기값 보다 지근의 정상부분의 자기 값이 더 낮게 나타나 이를 보정하기 위하여 홍삼 위치에 따라 부분 보정된 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 5) x-선관의 놓인 위치에 따라서 내공판정시험 결과 중심에 있을 때에 비해 가장자리에 있을 때는 영상이 일부 손실되었으며, 중심 위치에서 서로 다른 굵기의 홍삼에 대해서는 모두 양호한 결과가 나타났다. 6) 완전한 홈삼으로 내공판정시험 결과 내공주위의 정상부분가지도 일부 내공으로 잘못 검출되었으나 이것을 재차 line profile에 의해 한 라인씩 문턱 값을 설정하여 내공만을 정확하게 판정하는 알고리즘을 개발하였다.양체의 접종작업은 모든 배양실이 인력에 의존하였으며, 배양체를 배지와 분리하여 불필요한 부분을 제거하고 배양작물에 따라 생육정도를 2~3등급으로 구분하여 배양용기의 배지 위에 치상하는 과정으로 수행되었으며, 작업능률은 호접란의 경우 배양병에 25본을 접종하는데 시간당 6병, 심비디움은 원형 플라스크에 25본을 접종하는데 시간당 10병 정도였다. 바. 식물체의 대량증식에 사용되는 플라스크, 배양병, PE용기 등 배양용기의 세척작업은 농원의 1개배양실에서 간이식 세척기, 이 외의 9개배양실은 모두 물에 담겨 두었다가 세제와 브러쉬 등을 사용하여 인력으로 세척하고 있어 생력화 기술개발이 요구되었다.도가 빠를수록 건조속도가 빨라졌으며, 건조에너지도 1,334kcal/kg.water로 비슷하게 소요되었다. 마. 시험구와 대비구의 건감률은 시험구에서 1.08~1.36w.b./h로 나타나 대비구보다 약 9.9~18.3%가 높게 나타났고, 건조에너지는 10.2~14.6%가 절감되었다. 발아율은 열풍온도가 낮을수록 높게 나타났고 시험구가 대비구보다 발아율이 낮게 나타났으며, 동할률 증가량도 원적외선.열풍 복합건조방법이 높게 나타나 이것은 곡물 표면에 원적외선 방사에의한 복사열이 전달되어 열장해를 받았기 때문으로 판단되며, 금후 더 연구하여 적정 열풍온도 및 방사체 크기를 구명해야 할 것이다.으로 보여진다 따라서 옻나무 유래 F는 포유동물의 생식기능에 중요하게 작용하는 것으로 사료된다.된다.정량 분석한 결과이다. 시편의 조성은 33.6 at% U, 66.4 at% O의 결과를 얻었다. 산화물 핵연료의 표면 관찰 및 정량 분석 시험시 시편 표면을 전도성

  • This study aims to examine the generation of scatter rays by dividing it into the presence of the subject at the chest X-ray examination, the X-ray tube and detector in the X-ray room, the front of the patient window, the outside of the entrance door of the patient waiting room, opening of the entrance door, the outside of the radiological technologist's entrance door, and the opening of the radiological technologist's entrance door, etc. When there is a subject, as the subject is thicker, more scatter rays occur at each of the spots for measurement. And when the entrance door is closed at the measurement, fewer scatter rays are generated.

  • In this study, we measured the dose distribution of scattered ray in X-ray radiography room using an ion chamber and examined the dependency of scattered ray content on the scattered ray source and exposure condition. To study the factors of scattered ray occurrence in the acryl phantom, we measured the change in the scatted ray content according to the X-ray tube voltage (40~140 kV) and the field size ($10{\times}10\;cm^2$, $20{\times}20\;cm^2$, $35{\times}35\;cm^2$). For the $35{\times}35\;cm^2$ field size, the side-scattering rate ranged from 3.1% to 14.5%. The scattered ray contributions of the phantom, collimator, X-ray tube and wall were also measured. The scattered ray contribution of the phantom was higher than 95.4% for the entire tube voltage, and those of the collimator, X-ray tube and wall were 2.6%, 1.3% and 0.7%, respectively.
