본 논문에서는 OSL 도트 선량계의 교정인자, 흡수선량 선형성, 피크전압 선형성, 각도 변화에 의한 흡수선량 변화를 측정하고 분석했다. 의료용 X 선발생 장치를 사용하여 조사에 노출 선량 보정 계수, 흡수선량 선형성, 피크 전압 선형성은 모두 IEC-62387-1 (2007) 기준을 만족하였다. 기준 방사선 노출과 관련하여 0도, 30도 및 60도에서 선량계 방향에 대한 기준은 -29 % (${\pm}30^{\circ}$) 및 + 67 % (${\pm}60^{\circ}$)이었다. 30도에서 측정된 값은 기준보다 -8 % 낮고 60도에서 기준보다 -18 % 낮게 나타났다. 그러므로 OSL 도트 선량계 사용 시 방향에 따른 영향을 보정하여야 한다.

본 연구에서는 IEC 60601-2-54에서 제시한 표준을 근거로 부하조건에서의 제한된 간격으로 걸친 공기커마를 절대측정하여 X선의 직선성을 면밀히 평가하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 10대를 대상으로 한 모든 진단용 X선 발생장치(DR)는 IEC 60601-2-54 표준에서 제시한 공기커마의 직선성이 부적합으로 나타났고, 일반적인 조사선량의 직선성 평가방법에서는 4대에서 최고 관전압의 50%와 80%의 두 개 측정 계열 모두 부적합으로 나타났으며, 나머지 6대에서는 최고 관전압의 50%와 80%의 두 개 측정 계열 모두에서 적합으로 나타났다. IEC 60601-2-54 표준에서 제시한 직선성 시험과 기존의 조사선량 직선성 시험이 많은 차이를 보였다. IEC 60601-2-54 표준+에서 제시한 공기커마의 직선성은 국제표준의 권고사항이므로 기존의 조사선량 직선성 보다 상당히 타당성이 있고, 방사선량을 정량화하기 위한 표준으로 IEC 60601-2-54 표준에서 제시한 공기커마의 직선성이 진단용 X선 영상장치 성능관리에 중요한 평가 요소라 사료된다.

This paper describes the methodology for environmental assessments of traffic noise sources. An attempt is made to establish evaluation scale relationships between noise quality Parameters and subjective degrees annoyance. Subjective experimental was conducted to determine the subjective degrees annoyance that scaling score compare with reference and varieties noise source about modified traffic noises with $40{\sim}85dB$. Also a correlation analysis between noise rating index and satisfactory percentage of the noise dose response curves varied with response was conducted. As a result of study, subjective annoyance degree has not correlation of proportional linearity to the A weight noise level, but has correlation of proportional linearity to the index composed to loudness and tonality. It is suggested to be resonable level 4.9 (equivalence about 53dB) index on the out door noise limits for traffic noise and to be 6 step scale base on the linearity for evaluation traffic noise.

The electronics of a mobile robot ill nuclear facilities is required to satisfied the reliability to sustain survival in its radiation environment. To know how much radiation the robot has been encountered to replace sensitive electronic parts, a dosimeter to measure total accumulated dose is necessary. Among many radiation dosimeters or detectors, semiconductor radiation sensors have advantages in terms of power requirements and their sires over conventional detectors. This paper describes the use of the radiation-induced threshold voltage change of a commercial power pMOSFET as an accumulated radiation dose monitoring mean and that of the photo-current of a commercial PIN Diode as a dose-rate measurement mean. Commercial p-type power MOSFETs and PIN Diodes were tested in a Co-60 gamma irradiation facility to see their capabilities as radiation sensors. We found an inexpensive commercial power pMOSFET that shows good linearity in their threshold voltage shift with radiation dose and a PIN diode that shows good linearity in its photo-current change with dose-rate. According to these findings, a radiation hardened hybrid electronic radiation dosimeter for nuclear robots has been developed for the first time. This small hybrid dosimeter has also an advantage in the point of view of reliability improvement by using a diversity concept.

Background: A cargo container scanner using a high-energy X-ray generates a fan beam X-ray to acquire a transmitted image. Because the generated X-rays by LINAC may affect the image quality and radiation protection of the system, it is necessary to acquire accurate information about the generated X-ray beam distribution. In this paper, a diode-based multi-channel spatial dose measuring device for measuring the X-ray dose distribution developed for measuring the high energy X-ray beam distribution of the container scanner is described. Materials and Methods: The developed high-energy X-ray spatial dose distribution measuring device can measure the spatial distribution of X-rays using 128 diode-based X-ray sensors. And precise measurement of the beam distribution is possible through automatic positioning in the vertical and horizontal directions. The response characteristics of the measurement system were evaluated by comparing the signal gain difference of each pixel, response linearity according to X-ray incident dose change, evaluation of resolution, and measurement of two-dimensional spatial beam distribution. Results and Discussion: As a result, it was found that the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the response signal according to the incident position showed a difference of about 10%, and the response signal was linearly increased. And it has been confirmed that high-resolution and two-dimensional measurements are possible. Conclusion: The developed X-ray spatial dose measuring device was evaluated as suitable for dose measurement of high energy X-ray through confirmation of linearity of response signal, spatial uniformity, high resolution measuring ability and ability to measure spatial dose. We will perform precise measurement of the X-ray beamline in the container scanning system using the X-ray spatial dose distribution measuring device developed through this research.

There are 4 types of equipment in diagnostic radiography. These are single phase, three phase, inverter type and condenser type X-ray generators. It is very confusing to make an adequate exposure factor and to know the usage of different type of X-ray generators. In this experiment, I explored a comparative study of outputs in 4 different type of X-ray units. I expect that this experiment could be helpful for manufacturer to make both the X-ray equipment better, In terms of Ideal exposure factors, thereby reducing the patient dose. Experimental results are as follow : 1) X-ray output The ratio of X-ray output of single, three phase and inverter type of X-ray generator was 1 : 1.6 : 2 without absorber and 1 : 2 : 2.6 with 20 mm aluminium absorber. 2) Beam quality The X-ray beam quality of single phase generator was proved to be softer than three phase and inverter type of generators by 0.4 mmAL and 0.55 mmAl HVL respectively. 3) Reproducibility Linearity of X-ray output Retroducibility of X-ray output met the regulation below CV 0.05 and linearity also met the regulation below 0.1 in 4 types of diagnostic X-ray generators. 4) The comparison of incident dose Three phase X-ray generator was 20% higher than two other X-ray generators in radiation dose to make same film density.

전립선암에서 방사선치료의 경우 직장의 선량을 감소시키기 위하여 항문을 통하여 일정한 양의 공기를 주입한 풍선을 이용한다. 이런 이유로 전립선암의 방사선치료는 매일 영상유도를 하기 위하여 CBCT를 획득하고 있다. 치료 전 처음 촬영한 전산화단층촬영과 가장 비슷한 상태의 해부학적 구조를 유지시키기 위하여 전처치를 하고 있지만 완벽하게 일치된다고 할 수 없다. 두 명의 실제 치료계획에서는 방광의 용적은 45.82 cc와 63.43 cc 및 등가직경 4.4 cm, 4.9 cm로 측정되었다. 본 연구의 20회 CBCT 결과에서 방광의 용적은 평균 56.2 cc, 105.6cc로 평가되었다. 치료계획 전산화단층촬영에서 평가된 선량과 A 환자의 기준으로 정한 CBCT의 선량은 PTV Mean dose는 1.74%, Bladder Mean dose는 96.67%의 차이로 평가되었으며, B 환자의 경우 PTV Mean dose는 4.31%, Bladder Mean dose는 97.35%의 차이로 평가되었다. 방광의 용적의 변화에 따라 PTV와 방광의 선량변화가 발생된다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 방광의 용적의 변화에 따른 방광 선량의 상관계수 값은 평균선량 $R^2=-0.94$의 선형성을 나타냈다. 방광의 용적변화에 따른 PTV선량의 상관계수 값은 평균선량 $R^2=0.04$의 선형성을 나타냈다. 방광 용적의 변화에 따라 PTV의 선량 변화가 방광의 선량변화보다 더 크다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

A personal portable type electronic dosimeter using silicon PIN photodiode and small GM tube is recently attracting much attention due to its advantages such as an immediate indication function of dose and dose rate, alerting function, and efficient management of radiation exposure history and dose data. We designed and manufactured a semiconductor radiation detector aimed to directly measure X-ray and v-ray irradiated in silicon PIN photodiode, without using high-priced scintillation materials. Using this semiconductor radiation detector, we developed an active electronic dosimeter, which measures the exposure dose using pulse counting method. In this case, it has a shortcoming of over-evaluating the dose that shows the difference between the dose measured with electronic dosimeter and the dose exposed to the human body in a low energy area. We proposed an energy compensation filter and developed a dose conversion algorithm to make both doses indicated on the detector and exposed to the human body proportional to each other, thus enabling a high-precision dose measurement. In order to prove its reliability in conducting personal dose measurement, crucial for protecting against radiation, the implemented electronic dosimeter was evaluated to successfully meet the IEC's criteria, as the KAERI (Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) conducted test on dose indication accuracy, and linearity, energy and angular dependences.
