Patients who visit the emergency room with urinary stones have difficulty lying down in a supine position due to severe pain when performing the KUB test. The purpose of this study was to find methods to reduce the patients' pain and image distortion, and obtain medical images with high diagnostic values. After checking the standard classification of disease and cause of death, the target group consisted of 121 patients who had clearly distinguished stones from computed tomography. Patients with stones in the ureteralvesical junction were excluded. Qualitative image evaluation was performed by confirming the location of the stone in the computed tomography images. and evaluated the rate of visual discrimination of stones possible through KUB and abdominal plain X-ray. Quantitative image evaluation was performed on the KUB, abdominal plain X-ray images. The transverse process of the first lumbar vertebrae served as the standard point, and the length from this point to the lower part of the stone was measured. Results from looking at the rate of visual discrimination of stones possible through KUB and abdominal plain X-ray showed: 94 patients (77.6%) for KUB images and 91 patients (75.2%) for computed tomography images. The standard deviation for KUB and abdominal X-ray was 3 (2.4%). Comparing and analyzing the location from KUB images and abdominal plain X-ray images, the stone position was 10.1 mm in the kidney, 10.5 mm in the ureteropelvic junction, and 9.7 mm in the ureters. It was shown that the stone moved 10 mm on average with significant statistical difference (P<0.05). In cases where the pain is so severe that it is impossible to perform the test in the supine position, an alternative may be to check the stone position by performing a modified KUB test by having the patient stand in a vertical position. In the future, this will provide convenience to both the examiner and the patient when performing the examination, and it will contribute with its reproducibility.

The most important factor for the penetration performance of shaped charge is the liner design. By designing the liner to have properties of both high jet tip velocity and long jet break-up time, the better penetration performance could be acquired. Usually it is very difficult to satisfy above two conditions simultaneously. In this study, the liner with the shape of ogive was developed to have relatively larger jet mass compared to the conventional trumpet liner. The designed shaped charge showed jet properties with high jet tip velocity and long jet break-up time by using ogive liner and wave shaper. A commercially available hydro-dynamic code AUTODYN-2D was used for numerical analysis of jet formation. The flash X-ray test and the static penetration test were conducted to verify the results of numerical analysis.

방사선피폭에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 X선 검사시에 환자에게 조사되는 피폭선량을 정확히 알고 있다는 것은 환자의 불안을 해소하고 또 방사선사나 의사가 피폭선량 경감의식을 향상시키는 데 중요하지만, 임상에서 측정기를 보유하고 있는 시설은 극소수에 불과하다. 본 연구에서는 bit system 및 NDD-M법의 특징을 살려서 우리나라에 사용되고 있는 진단용 X선장치의 출력선량을 직접 측정하여 도표화 하고, X선 출력선량을 아는 경우 또는 모르는 경우 모두에서 적절히 적용할 수 있게 두 가지 방법을 제시하여 실측선량과 비교 실험을 하였다. 그 결과 bit system 및 NDD-M법보다 정확도가 우수한 결과를 나타내어 임상에서 환자가 받는 선량을 더욱 쉽게 알 수 있게 됨으로 방사선관련 종사자들의 의료피폭에 대한 관심이 더욱 높아지고 의료선량감소에 한층 더 노력하는 계기가 될 것으로 사료된다.

The purposed of this work was to determine nanotube shape variation on the Ti-xNb alloys with alloying elements and applied potentials. Samples were prepared by arc melting, followed by followed by homogenization for 12 hr at $1000^{\circ}C$ in argon atmosphere. This study was evaluated the phase and microstructure of Ti-xNb alloys using an X-ray diffraction (XRD) and optical microscopy (OM). The morphology of the samples was investigated with a field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The nanotube on the alloy surface was formed in 1 M $H_3PO_4$ with small additions of NaF 0.8 wt.%. All anodization treatments were carried out using a scanning potentiostat (Model 362, EG&G, USA) at constant voltage 30 V for 120 min, respectively. The morphology of the samples was investigated with a field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Surface characteristics of nanotbue formed on Ti-xNb alloys was investigated by potentiodynamic test and potentiostatic in 0.9% NaCl solution at $36.5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. It was observed that the changed ${\alpha}$ phase to ${\beta}$ phase with Nb content.

본 연구는 방사선 조사식품에 대한 소비자들의 수용성을 증대하고, 감마선조사의 대체기술로 X-선 조사의 상용화를 확대할 목적으로 30 kGy X-선 조사식품 4종(닭고기, 전란분말, 건파, 후추)의 유전독성학적 안전성 평가를 실행하였다. Salmonella Typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535 및 TA1537에 대한 X-선 조사식품 4종의 복귀변이 집락 수를 조사한 결과, 대사 활성계 도입 및 부재 시 모두 시험 적용 농도인 $40{\sim}5,000{\mu}g/plate$의 범위에서 복귀변이 집락 수의 농도 의존적인 증가 혹은 감소를 보이지 않았다. 그리고 포유류 배양세포를 이용한 염색체 이상 시험에서도 X-선 조사식품 4종은 $625{\sim}5,000{\mu}g/mL$의 시험 적용 농도에서 염색체 이상 유발능이 5% 미만이어서 염색체 이상을 유발하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 설치류 망상적혈구를 이용하여 X-선 조사식품 4종의 소핵 형성 시험을 수행한 결과 시험 적용 농도인 250~2,000 mg/kg의 범위에서 소핵을 가진 망상적혈구의 출현율이 음성대조군과 유의한 차이를 나타내지 않아 소핵을 유발하지 않음을 확인하였다. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 위해 분석 결과 30 kGy X-선 조사식품 4종(닭고기, 전란분말, 건파, 후추)은 본 시험조건에서 유전 독성이 없는 것으로 나타났다.

Objectives: Previous studies have reported inconsistent findings in the association between dental diagnostic X-ray exposure and thyroid cancer. This study was a meta-analysis of case-control studies evaluating the association between exposure to dental radiation and the thyroid cancer risk. Methods: We searched the PubMed and EMBASE databases to identify studies on dental radiation and thyroid cancer risks that were published up to September 2018. Quality of studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. A fixed-effects model was used to estimate pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using STATA 14.0. Potential publication biases were evaluated using Egger's test and Begg's funnel plot. Results: From the literature search, we included six case-control studies in this meta-analysis. The meta-analysis using the fixed-effects model found that dental X-ray exposure was associated with 2.34 times increased risk for thyroid cancer (OR=2.34, 95% CI=1.79-3.21). There was no heterogeneity in the data (p=0.662, I² =0%). Egger's test showed that there was no publication bias (p=0.532). Conclusions: This meta-analysis confirmed the association of dental X-ray exposure and thyroid cancer risk. The current results underscore the importance of applying safety regulations at dental clinics to protect thyroid glands during dental radiography examinations.

In order to investigate electrochemical behavior and biocompatibility of Co-Cr dental alloy by electrochemical corrosion test and MTT assay, the xCo-25Cr-yW-zNi alloys were used in this study. Samples of Co-Cr-W-Ni alloys were manufactured using arc melting furnace. The microstructure of the alloys was examined by optical microscopy (OM), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), MTT assay, and corrosion test. Corrosion resistance increased slightly as cobalt (Co) content increased. And bioactivity was concerned with nickel (Ni) and tungsten (W). Biocompatibility of Co-Cr alloy depended on Ni and W contents.

차세대 원자로로 부각되고 있는 고온가스로에서는 윈자로에서는 고온 안정성 및 핵분열생성물 차단 성능이 우수한 TRISO(tri-isotropic) 핵연료를 사용하고 있다. TRISO 핵연료 입자는 직경이 약 1mm인 구 형태로 입자의 중심에는 직경 0.5mm의 핵연료 커널(kernel)이 포함되며 커널 외곽을 코팅 층이 에워싸고 있다. 이 코팅 층은 완충(buffer) PyC(pyrolytic carbon)층, 내부 PyC층, SiC층, 그리고 외부 PyC층으로 구성되어 있다. 각 코팅 층의 두께는 수십-백${\mu}m$ 범위이고 사양으로 정해져 있으며, 본 연구에서는 각 코팅 층의 두께를 비파괴적으로 측정하기 위하여 마이크로포커스 X-선 발생장치와 고해상도 X-선 평판(flat panel) 검출기초 구성된 정밀한 X-선 래디오그래피 장치를 개발하였다. 개발된 마이크로 X-선 래디오그래피 장치를 이용하여 $UO_2$ 핵물질 $ZrO_2$를 커널로 사용한 모의 TRISO 핵연료 입사에 대한 투과 영상을 획득한 후 디지털 영상처리 기술을 이용하여 코팅 층 사이의 경계선이 구분 가능하도록 영상을 개선하고 디지털 영상처리 알고리듬을 개발하여 코팅 층의 두께를 파동으로 측정하였다.
