이 논문에서는 비디오 영상에서의 블록 모션 측정을 위한 통계학적인 특징에 기반 한 알고리즘을 제안한다. 우선 참조 블록의 통계학적인 특징을 구하고, 이를 참조 블록의 통계적 특징과 정규 시작점 패턴 (SPP) 에 퍼져 있는 블록에서의 특징을 비교하여, SPP에서의 시작점 (SP) 후보를 선택하는 데에 적용한다. 최종적인 SP 들은 SP 후보 들에서의 평균절대차이 (MAD) 값으로 구한다. 마지막으로 기존의 고속탐색 알고리즘인 BBG나 DS 그리고 TSS중 하나를 이용하여 참조블록의 모션 벡터를 최종 SP를 시작점으로 하여 계산하였다. 실험결과는 기대 했던 바와 같이 최종 SP로부터의 시작점들이 전역최소값 (global minimum)에 근접함을 보여 주었다.

Stellate ganglion block is a selective sympathetic blockade affecting the head and neck, and the upper extemity. It is an important method which has been used most frequently in neuro-pain clinic due to its wide range of indications. The authors attermpted to define the minimal volume of local anesthetic which need for successful stellate ganglion block by using 1% mepivacaine HCl mixed with dye. In 40 heathy volunteers, two different volumes, 3 ml in the group 1 (n=20) and 4 ml in the group 2 (n=20), were injected by an anterior paratracheal technique at the sixth cervical vertebral level. We compared the degree in sympathetic blockade by clinical sings and symptoms and also checked the spread range of dye by plain X-ray. With seven criteria for an effective block. mean score was 5.7 in group 2, while 3.4 in group 1. These results suggest that 4 ml of local anesthetic are adequate for a successful stellate ganglion block.

Conventional transcrural CPB via the "walking off" the vertebra technique may injure vital organs while attempting to proximally spread injectate around the celiac plexus. Therefore, we attempted the CT-simulated fluoroscopy-guided transdiscal approach to carry out transcrural CPB in a safer manner, spreading the injectate more completely and closely within the celiac plexus area. A 54-year-old male patient with pancreatic cancer suffered from severe epigastric pain. The conventional transcrural approach was simulated, but the needle pathway was impeded by the kidney on the right side and by the aorta on the left side. After simulating the transdiscal pathway through the T11-12 intervertebral disc, we predetermined the optimal insertion point (3.6 cm from the midline), insertion angle (18 degrees), and advancement plane, as well as the proper depth. With the transdiscal approach, we successfully performed transcrural CPB within a narrow angle, and the bilateral approach was not necessary as we were able to achieve the bilateral spread of the injectate with the single approach.

본 논문에서는 Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM) 시스템에서 압축센싱을 이용하는 채널추정기법을 연구한다. 압축센싱은 측정벡터의 크기가 성능에 영향을 주는데, OFDM에서는 channel delay spread가 큰 경우에 압축센싱 기법을 사용하는데 제약이 된다. 본 논문에서는 채널추정 오차를 줄이기 위해서 OFDM data block에 pilot information을 추가해 측정벡터의 길이를 증가시켜 성능을 향상시킨다. 제안하는 방식이 성긴 신호의 위치를 찾을 확률을 높이고 압축센싱의 신호 복원 성능을 높인다. 모의실험을 통해 제안하는 방식이 기존 방식보다 신호 복원 능력이 더 우수함을 확인한다.

Background: Cervical epidural injection, performed via the interlaminar approach, represents a useful interventional pain management procedure indicated in patients with a cervical herniated disk. Due to thedecreased epidural space in the cervical region, cervical epidural injections may result in potentially serious complications, especially during a large volume injection. Methods: Thirty-four patients with neck pain due to a cervical herniated disk that were referred to the pain clinic for cervical epidural steroid injection were randomized into two groups. One group received a cervical epidural injection of 4 ml drug and the other group received 2 ml drug. The injected mixture included triamcinolon, ropivacaine and omnipaque. Spread levels of the drug after injection were estimated with the use of C-arm fluoroscopy. Results: Spread levels to the cephalad for patients in the two groups were $4.88{\pm}0.78segments$ and $4.53{\pm}0.49segments$, respectively. Spread levels to the caudad for patients in the two groups were $4.59{\pm}0.93segments$ and $4.47{\pm}0.51segments$, respectively. The results showed no significant difference in the spread level between the two groups. Conclusions: Use of a small volume of drug (2 ml) can provide a sufficient spread level of the injected drug that is desirable for patients with a cervical herniated disk.

Most neoplasm of the floor of the mouth are squamous cell carcinoma. They originate from anterior midline floor of the mouth and penetrate into the sublingual gland. Invasion of the mandible is a late manifestation. Lymphatic spread is the submaxillary and subdigastric nodes and advanced lesions of them produce severe pain, The initial step in managing patients with cancer pain is the oncology therapy in the form of radiotherapy, surgery, or chemotherapy, alone or combined. When oncologic therapy is ineffective, the pain must be treated by systemic analgesic, psychologic, neurostimulating, regional analgesic,and meuroablative techniques. We successfully treated with gasserian ganglion block on the left side and mandibular nerve block on the right side with pure alcohol in the patient having severe submandibular, lower lip and tongue pain.

본 연구에서는 펄스의 위치를 랜덤하게 함으로써 효율적은 RPWN (Random PWM)을 구현할 수 있는 새로운 공간 벡터 RPPWM(Random Position PWM)방식을 제안하였다. 제안한 방식은 마이크로 컨트롤로 적용하기 쉬운 공간벡터 변조에 의하여 각 상의 듀티비를 연산한 다음, 스위칭 순서를 유지하며 각 3상 펄스들의 위치를 변조구간내에서 임의의 위치에 랜덤하게 배치함으로써 RPWM을 구현하는 방식이다. 제안된 방법의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 MATLAB/SIMULINK를 이용하여 펄스위치의 랜덤화 공각벡터 변조, 인버터 및 3상 유도전동기를 포함하는 전체 시스템을 모델화하였다. 종전의 공각벡턱 PWM 그리고 제안된 RPPWM에 의한 인버터 출력 전압 전류의 고조파 성분을 시뮬레이션에 의하여 비교 검토하였으며 제안된 방법의 유용성을 입증할 수 있었다.

We present our failed case of celiac plexus block using the anterior approach under CT guidance in patient with intolerable abdominal pain originating from pancreatic cancer with celiac invasion. In spite of the proper position of needle, the contrast material was not spread due to the tumoral invasion.

In this paper, we present a digital authentication technique using content-based watermarking in digital images. To digest the image contents, Hopfield network is employed on the block-based edge image. The Hopfield function extracts the same tit fur similarly looking blocks so that the values are unlikely to change to the innocuous manipulations while being changed far malicious manipulations. By inputting the extracted bit sequence with secret key to the cryptographic hash function, we generate a watermark for each block by seeding a pseudo random number generator with a hash output Therefore, the proposed authentication technique can distinguish between malicious attacks and innocuous attacks. Watermark embedding is based on the block-based spread spectrum method in DCT domain and the strength of watermark is adjusted according to the local statistics of DCT coefficients in a zig-zag scan line in AC subband. The numerical experiments show that the proposed technique is very efficient in the performance of robust authentication.

In this paper, under the assumption of the symmetry point spread function, antireflective boundary conditions(AR-BCs) are considered in connection with the fast truncated Lagrange(FTL) method. The FTL method is proposed as an image restoration method for large-scale ill-conditioned BTTB(block Toeplitz with Toeplitz block) and BTHHTB(block Toeplitz-plus-Hankel matrix with Toeplitz-plus-Hankel blocks) linear systems([13, 17]). The implementation and efficiency of the FTL method in the AR-BCs are further illustrated. Especially, by employing the AR-BCs, both the continuity of the image and the continuity of its normal derivative are preserved at the boundary. A reconstructed image with less artifacts at the boundary is obtained as a result.
