Objective : Women can be affected physically and psychologically by pregnancy and delivery. Because the relaxation of pelvic ligaments has a chance to cause pelvic deviation, we investigated the radiological peivic deviation according to delivery types and experiences. Method : 71 patients were evaluated by X-ray findings. Every patients divided into two group according to delivery types and experiences. After measured innominate measurement. off centering measurement, sacral ala measurement and ilium shadow measurement, X-ray findings in each group were analyzed statistically. Results and Conclusions : It was concluded that the ilium was more deviated into outer side in normal delivery group than caesarean operation group, and more deviated into inner or outer side in multipara group than primipara group.

The characteristic X-rays emitted from materials after gamma ray exposure was simulated and measured. A CdTe semiconductor detector and a $^{57}Co$ radiation source were used for energy spectroscopy. The types of materials could be identified by comparing the measured energy spectrum with the theoretical X-ray transition energy of the material. The sample composition was represented by the $K_{\alpha1}$-line (Siegbahn notations), which has the highest intensity among the characteristic X-rays of each atom. The difference between the theoretic prediction and the experimental result of K-line measurement was < 0.61% even if the characteristic X-rays from several materials were measured simultaneously. 2D images of the mixed materials were acquired with very high selectivity.

의료용 X선 방호는 끊임없이 논쟁이 되고 불필요한 피폭을 막으려는 노력은 많은 연구자들의 관심사였다. X선은 환자를 투과하고 영상을 얻기 까지 피사체와 광전효과, 컴프턴산란 등의 상호작용을 하여 산란선을 만든다. 이 때문에 의료방사선 종사자뿐만 아니라 검사를 받는 환자도 환부 외 영역에 불필요한 산란선 피폭을 받게 된다. 이에 본 연구는 본 연구에서는 여성의 인체를 가정하여, 요추정면 검사 조건으로 X선을 팬텀에 조사한 후 유방근처의 산란선과 갑상샘 근처의 산란선을 측정하였다. 이후 jelly type의 차폐체를 제작하여 산란선 차폐 및 방사선감수성이 높은 부위에서 차폐효과를 확인하는 것이 목표이다, 실험결과 차폐체를 적용하였을 때의 갑상선 측정시 평균 0.16 mR, 왼쪽, 오른쪽 유방 측정 시 평균 0.6 mR, 왼쪽 겨드랑이 0.64 mR, 오른쪽 겨드랑이 0.54 mR 의 산란선 평균을 나타내었으며 약 82%의 산란선 차폐효과를 확인 할 수 있었다. 향후 기존 방호도구와 비교하여 Jelly type의 차폐 체와의 요추 검사에서 발생하는 피폭의 차폐율을 비교하여 기존 방호도구를 대체할 방안으로 제시 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

As a fundamental study on effects of thermal-cycles on residual stress of ceramics/metal joints, residual stresses in $Si_3N_4$/SUS304 joint specimens were measured before and single thermal-cycle by X-ray diffraction method and finite element method(FEM). The residual stress was found to increase after single thermal-cycle, which was agreeable with the results of residual stress measurement by X-ray diffraction method and residual stress analysis by finite element method. After the residual stress measurement, 4-point bending tests were performed. The relationship between the bending strength, the thermal-cycle temperature and hold time was examined. The bending strength was found to decrease with the increase of residual stress in linear relation.

As a carrier of malaria and sneak of blood, mosquitoes are regarded as an unpleasant insect. However, there are novel phenomena that happen inside a mosquito. Among them, we focused on the blood sucking function of a female mosquito. The main objective of this study was to investigate the mosquito's pumping mechanism in order to resolve the problem encountered when we inject or transport biologic fluids into a micro-chip. To analyze the pumping mechanism, we visualized the blood sucking process inside a female mosquito. Flow characteristics of blood flow in a proboscis were investigated experimentally using a micro-PIV velocity field measurement technique. The anatomical variation of head, thorax, abdomen which work as pumps and valves, was visualized using the syncrotron X-ray micro-imaging technique.

A key comparison has been made between the air-kerma standards of the National Institute of Metrology (NIM), China, and other Asia Pacific Metrology Programme (APMP) members in the medium-energy X-ray. This paper reviews the primary standard Free-air ionization chamber correction factor experimental method and Monte Carlo simulation method in the NIM. The experimental method and the Monte Carlo simulation method are adopted to obtain the correction factor for the medium-energy X-ray primary standard free-air ionization chamber at 100 kV, 135 kV, 180 kV, 250 kV four CCRI reference qualities. The correction factor has already been submitted to the APMP as key comparison data and the results are in good agreement with those obtained in previous studies. This study shows that the experimental method and the EGSnrc simulation method are usually used in the measurement of the correction factor. In particular, the application of the simulation methods is more common.

It is important to measure precisely the size and velocity of micro-bubbles used in various field. The synchrotron X-ray micro-imaging technique was employed to measure the size and velocity of micro-bubbles moving in an opaque tube simultaneously. Phase contrast images were obtained at interfaces of micro-bubbles between water and air due to their different refractive indices. The X-ray micro-imaging technique was found to measure an optical fiber with an accuracy of 0.2%. Micro-bubbles of $10{\sim}60{\mu}m$ diameter moving upward in an opaque tube (${\phi}=2.7mm$) were tested to measure bubble size and up-rising velocity. For DI water, the measured velocity of micro-bubbles is nearly proportional to the square of bubble size, agreed well with the theoretical result. In addition, the synchrotron X-ray micro-imaging technique can measure accurately the size and velocity of several overlapped micro-bubbles.

Purpose: To compare tumor size by mammography and sonography and align with pathological results in primary breast cancer cases. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 95 primary breast cancer patients who underwent mammography and sonography from January 2011 to June 2012. The largest tumor diameter was chosen as sizing reference for each imaging modality. The measurements of mammography and sonography were considered concordant if they were within the measurement of pathological results ${\pm}0.5cm$. Pearson's correlation coefficient was calculated for imaging results. Results: The range of the maximum diameter was 0.6cm-10.5cm and mean value was $3.81{\pm}2.04cm$ by pathological results, 0.7cm-12.4 cm and $3.99{\pm}2.19cm$ by mammography, and 0.9cm-11.0cm and $3.63{\pm}2.01cm$ by sonography, respectively. Sonography (R: 0.754), underestimated tumor size, but had a better correlation with pathological tumor size compared to mammography (R: 0.676), which overestimated tumor size. Conclusions: Sonography is superior to mammography in assessment of primary breast cancer.

냉간 압축가공한 순수 지르코늄의 회복현상을 X-ray line broadening과 미소경도 (microhardness)를 측정하여 연구하였다. Isochronal 소둔한 결과에서 경도나 X-ray line breadth가 30$0^{\circ}C$이하에서는 감소하지 않는다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 같은 크기의 냉간가공도에서 X-ray line breadth의 회복속도는 경도의 회복속도와 다르게 나타났으며 가공도에 상관없이 X-ray line breadth의 회복에 필요한 활성화 에너지는 경도의 회복에 필요한 활성화 에너지보다 작은 것을 알 수 있었다. 8%, 19%, 28% 냉간가공한 지르코늄에서의 X-ray line breadth의 회복에 필요한 활성화 에너지는 각각 64,800cal/gram atom, 56,400 cal/gram atom, 48,500 cal/gram atom이였으며 경도의 회복에 필요한 활성화 에너지는 72,800 cal/gram atom, 64,300 cal/gram atom, 58,600 cal/gram atom인 것으로 나타났다.

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.
