We propose a fast algorithm using Extreme Contour Point (ECP) to detect the angle of rotated images, is implemented by rotation feature of one covered frame image that can be applied to correct the rotated images like in image processing for real time applications, while CORDIC is inefficient to calculate various points like high definition image since it is only possible to detect rotated angle between one point and the other point. The two advantages of this algorithm, namely compatibility to images in preprocessing by using Sobel edge process for pattern recognition. While the other one is its simplicity for rotated angle detection with cyclic shift of two $1{\times}n$ matrix set without complexity in calculation compared with CORDIC algorithm. In ECP, the edge features of the sample image of gray scale were determined using the Sobel Edge Process. Then, it was subjected to binary code conversion of 0 or 1 with circular boundary to constitute the rotation in invariant conditions. The results were extracted to extreme points of the binary image. Its components expressed not just only the features of angle ${\theta}$ but also the square of radius $r^2$ from the origin of the image. The detected angle of this algorithm is limited only to an angle below 10 degrees but it is appropriate for real time application because it can process a 200 degree with an assumption 20 frames per second. ECP algorithm has an O ($n^2$) in Big O notation that improves the execution time about 7 times the performance if CORDIC algorithm is used.

Objectives The purpose of this study is to find out the relationship between the hip internal rotation angle and the site of herniation of single level lumbar intervertebral disc. Methods This study was carried out to 418 patients with lumbar disc herniation diagnosed by M.R.I, who visited Bu-Chun Jaseng Hospital of Korean Medicine with low back pain. Researchers measured their hip internal rotation angle and analyzed the relationship between the hip internal rotation angle and the site of herniation of single level lumbar intervertebral disc. Results 1. Excessive right internal rotation of hip joint increases risk of L5/S1 HIVD. 2. Limited left internal rotation of hip joint decreases risk of L4/L5 HIVD. 3. In cases of L4/L5 HIVD level, there was evidence that the prevalence of HNP in men was 1.85 times as higher than that in women. 4. In cases of L5/S1 HIVD level, there was the evidence that the prevalence of HNP in men was 0.64 times as lower than that in women. Conclusions In single-segment lumbar HIVD patients, limited left internal rotation of hip joint decreases risk of HIVD of L4/5 and excessive right internal rotation of hip joint mainly leads to L5/S1 HIVD.

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of osteotomy angle and tibial proximal segment rotation angle on angular and torsional tibial deformities and to assess the trends of these deformities during the rotation of the tibial proximal segment in a center of rotation of angulation (CORA)-based leveling osteotomy (CBLO) by performing computer modeling of the tibia. Four tibias of toy breed dogs with no history of lameness were used in this study. Osteotomies were performed in the proximal tibias at angles of 0°, 10°, 20°, -10°, and -20°, perpendicular to either the proximodistal or craniocaudal tibial axes. The mechanical medial proximal tibial angle (mMPTA) and transcondylar (TC) and distal cranial tibial (CnT) axes were used to measure angular and torsional deformities, respectively. All tibias showed an increase in angular and rotational deformities with an increase in the tibial plateau rotation angle. The tibia with osteotomies performed in the proximodistal and craniocaudal directions showed the highest magnitude of torsional and angular deformities, respectively. The results of this study revealed a tendency of occurrence of angular and torsional deformities with osteotomy performed along the proximodistal and craniocaudal directions in the CBLO.

본 논문에서는 두 영상간의 회전각도를 추정하는 방법들 중에서, 정확도에서 높은 성능을 제공하는 저니키 모멘트의 위상을 이용한 방법들의 회전각도 추정 결과의 정확도를 비교하여 제시하고, 기존의 방법들보다 정확하게 각도를 추정하는 angular radial transform(ART) 계수들의 위상성분을 이용한 회전각도 추정방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 Revaud가 제안한 저니키 모멘트를 이용한 회전각도 추정 방법[1]을 ART로 확장한 방법이다. ART는 저니키 모멘트에 비해서 회전에 의한 영상의 변화를 보다 효과적으로 서술할 수 있는 기저함수의 생성이 가능하기 때문에 저니키 모멘트보다 두 영상간의 회전각도를 정확히 추정하는 것을 가능하게 한다. MPEG-7 데이터셋을 이용한 실험 결과, 제안하는 방법이 제곱평균제곱근오차(root mean square error) 대 커버리지(coverage)를 기준으로한 성능비교에서 가장 우수한 성능을 보였다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of visual electromyography (EMG) biofeedback on the EMG activity of the lower trapezius (LT), serratus anterior (SA), and upper trapezius (UT) muscles, the LT/UT and SA/UT EMG activity ratios, and the scapular upward rotation angle during scapular posterior tilting exercise (SPTE). Twenty-four subjects with round-shoulder posture participated in this study. The EMG activities of the LT, SA, and UT were collected during SPTE both without and with visual EMG biofeedback. The scapular upward rotation angle was measured at the baseline, after SPTE without visual EMG biofeedback, and after SPTE with visual EMG biofeedback. The LT, SA, and UT EMG activities, and the LT/UT and SA/UT EMG activity ratios were analyzed by paired t-test. The scapular upward rotation angle was statistically analyzed using one-way repeated analysis of variance. If a significant difference was found, a Bonferroni correction was performed (p=.05/3=.017). The EMG activities of LT and SA significantly increased, and the EMG activity of UT significantly decreased during SPTE with visual EMG biofeedback compared to SPTE without visual EMG biofeedback (p<.05). In addition, the LT/UT and SA/UT EMG activity ratios significantly increased during SPTE with visual EMG biofeedback compared to SPTE without visual EMG biofeedback (p<.05). Significant increases were found in the scapular upward rotation angle after SPTE without and with visual EMG biofeedback compared to baseline (p<.017), and no significant differences were observed in the scapular upward rotation angle between SPTE without and with visual EMG biofeedback. In conclusion, SPTE using visual EMG biofeedback may be an effective method for increasing LT and SA activities while reducing UT activity.

Intraoral Vertical Ramus Osteotomy,along with Sagittal Split Ramus Osteotomy,is an popular surgical technique performed on mandibular prognathism. However Intraoral Vertical Ramus Osteotomy has been suspected for an initial mobilization at the healing phase of segment because it does not employ the rigid fixation between segments. To execute a study on the healing phase of segment after Intraoral Vertical Ramus Osteotomy on the horizontal plane, 102 patients (204 parts) who were diagnosed mandibular prognathism and took Intraoral Vertical Ramus Osteotomy at the Yonsei University dental hospital were observed during the period of before operation, immediately postoperation, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. The change in the width of segment and horizontal angle of proximal segment and condylar head on the Submentovertex Cephalogram taken from those patients represented following results. 1. The width of proximal and distal segment decreased with the lapse of time. It decreased into 84.5% between immediate postoperative and 6M and even continued to decrease till 12M. 2. The horizontal angle of the proximal segment did medial rotation according as the lapse of time and rigorously continued till 3M. The rotation angle of condylar head indicated its tendency of recurrence to the original position but the entire recurrence was not allowed. The bigger an initial angle was, the higher was the tendency of recurrence after the operation while the rotation angle remained still bigger. 3. After grouping into group 1, group 2,and group 3 based on the extent of the variation of rotation angle of condylar head at immediate postoperative, the variation of rotation angle was measures in each group. The result presented that the initial rotation angle of condylar head had correlation with that of proximal segment but had no relation with the extent of setback of the mandible. However a quantitative analysis alone is not a sufficient method for analyzing the healing phase of segment on the horizontal plane.Therefore a multilateral analysis using 3 dimensional data such as CT is recommendable for the future study.

Determining of the exercise intensity is very important in terms of induction of low fatigue during exercise. Little information is available on the contraction level of the trunk muscles during whole body tilts with and without axial rotation. This study was to investigate the difference muscle activation level according to axial rotation. Twenty subjects were participated. The muscle activities of the five trunk muscles were bilaterally measured at eight axial rotation angles with 12 tilt angles along $15^{\circ}$ intervals. The results showed that tilt with $45^{\circ}$ axial rotation was more balanced in the same tilt angle and was maintained approximately level of 40% MVC at over $60^{\circ}$ tilt angle with respect to co-contraction of abdominal and back muscle. Lumbar stabilization exercise using whole body tilts would be more effective with axial rotation than without axial rotation in terms of muscle co-contraction.

Background: Uncontrolled lumbopelvic movement leads to asymmetric symptoms and causes pain in the lumbar and pelvic regions. So many patients have uncontrolled lumbopelvic movement. Passive support devices are used for unstable lumbopelvic patient. So, we need to understand that influence of passive support on lumbopelvic stability. It is important to examine that using the pelvic belt on abdominal muscle activity, pelvic rotation and pelvic tilt. Objects: This study observed abdominal muscle activity, pelvic rotation and tilt angles were compared during active straight leg raise (ASLR) with and without pelvic compression belt. Methods: Sixteen healthy women were participated in this study. ASRL with and without pelvic compression belt was performed for 5 sec, until their leg touched the target bar that was set 20 cm above the base. Surface electromyography was recorded from rectus abdominis (RA), internal oblique abdominis (IO), and external oblique abdominis (EO) bilaterally. And pelvic rotation and tilt angles were measured by motion capture system. Results: There were significantly less activities of left EO (p=.042), right EO (p=.031), left IO (p=.039), right IO (p=.019), left RA (p=.044), and right RA (p=.042) and a greater right pelvic rotation angle (p=.008) and anterior pelvic tilt angle (p<.001) during ASLR with pelvic compression belt. Conclusion: These results showed that abdominal activity was reduced while the right pelvic rotation angle and anterior pelvic tilt angle were increased during ASLR with a pelvic compression belt. In other words, although pelvic compression belt could support abdominal muscle activity, it would be difficult to control pelvic movement. So pelvic belt would not be useful for controlled ASLR.

목적: 유방암 환자를 삼문으로 방사선치료할 경우 유방의 접면 영역과 쇄골상 영역의 기하학적 일치를 이루기 위해 갠트리를 회전한 상태에서 테이블을 회전하는 방법이 사용되며, 이때 접면 조사의 posterior edge에 발생할 수 있는 어긋남을 필름선량측정법과 삼차원입체조영치료계획을 통하여 확인하고, 그 어긋남의 해결방법으로 콜리메이터의 각도를 보정해주는 방법들을 연구하였다. 대상 및 방법: 어긋남의 보정을 위해 쇄골상 영역과 유방의 접면 영역을 반쪽 빔 블록과 tangential field block을 사용하여 모의치료한 후 테이블 회전을 하지 않은 상태에서 환자의 몸에 접면 빔의 posterior edge에 선을 긋고, 테이블을 회전시킨 상태에서의 광조사야의 posterior edge와 테이블 회전 이전에 환자의 몸에 그어 놓은 선과 일치되도록 콜리메이터를 회전시키는 방법과, 본 연구에서 고안한 방법인 삼각함수로부터 유도시킨 다음과 같은 공식에 따라 콜리메이터를 회전하여 posterior edge의 어긋남을 보정하고 두 방법을 비교하였다. Co=$2sin^{-1}${$sin\{theta}\{cdot}sin(C/2)$} (Co: collimator angle, $\theta$: angle between tangential beam and table, C: couch angle) 결과: 필름선량측정법을 이용하여 콜리메이터를 보정하지 않은 경우 내외측의 접면 빔의 posterior edge가 어긋남을 확인할 수 있었으며, 콜리메이터를 보정함으로써 posterior edge의 일치함을 확인할 수 있었다. 위 두 방법에서 콜리메이터의 회전 각도는 동일하였다. 또한 전산화된 삼차원입체조영치료계획을 통하여, 접면 빔의 posterior edge의 어긋남을 확인할 수 있었으며, 콜리메이터를 회전하여 보정 함으로써 posterior edge의 일치를 확인할 수 있었다. 각각의 선량체적표를 비교할 경우, 콜리메이터를 보정하여 posterior edge의 일치를 이룬 경우가 더 적은 용적의 폐가 조사되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 결론: 유방암 환자의 방사선 치료에서 삼문으로 치료할 경우에 갠트리와 테이블을 동시에 회전하여 쇄골위 영역의 아래 면과 접면 빔의 윗면을 일치시킬 때 각각의 접면 빔의 posterior edge가 어긋남을 인지해야 하며, 약간의 콜리메이터를 회전시킴으로써 이 어긋남은 보정가능하고, 폐에 조사되는 방사선 양도 줄일 수 있었다.
