본 연구는 스마트팩토리 도입의도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 실증 분석을 통해 확인하였다. 4차산업혁명의 핵심분야인 스마트팩토리 도입에 있어서 어떤 요인이 중요하게 영향을 미치는가에 대한 연구이며, 아직까지 스마트팩토리 분야에서 기술 수용에 관한 연구가 부족한 상황에서 학술적 실무적 의의가 있다고 믿는다. 정보기술의 수용요인 연구에 설명력이 검증된 통합기술수용이론(UTAUT)을 기반으로 연구를 진행하였으며, UTAUT 이론의 4가지 독립변수인 성과기대, 노력기대, 사회적영향, 촉진조건에 추가로 스마트팩토리의 특성상 중요한 요인으로 예상되는 정부지원기대(Government Assistance Expectancy)를 독립변수에 추가하였다. 또한 스마트팩토리 기술수용의 기술적인 요인을 확인하고자 과업기술적합도(Task Technology Fit)변수 추가하여 스마트팩토리 도입의도에 미치는 영향관계를 실증 분석하였다. 또한 과업기술적합도의 선행변수인 과업특성(Task Characteristics)과 기술특성(Technology Characteristics)이 과업기술적합도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대한 분석도 진행하였다. 새로운 기술에 대한 신뢰(Trust)의 정도가 기술의 수용에 있어 매우 중요한 영향을 미칠 것으로 예상되어 신뢰를 매개변수로 추가하였다. 마지막으로 새로운 정보기술에 의한 혁신이 사용자에게 불가피하게 거부감을 야기할 수 있다는 선행연구들을 토대로 혁신저항(Innovation Resistance)을 조절역할을 하는 연구변수에 추가하여 실증적 검증을 진행하였다. 연구 결과 성과기대, 사회적 영향, 정부지원기대, 과업기술적합도는 스마트팩토리 도입의도에 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤다. 영향력의 크기는 정부지원기대(β=.487) > 과업기술적합도(β=.218) > 성과기대(β=.205) > 사회적영향(β=.204) 순으로 나타났다. 과업특성과 기술특성은 모두 과업기술적합도에 정(+)의 영향이 확인되었으며, 과업특성(β=.559)이 기술특성(β=.328)보다 과업기술적합도에 더 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 신뢰에 대한 매개 효과 검정에서 6개 독립변수 각각과 스마트팩토리 도입의도 간에 신뢰의 통계적으로 유의미한 매개역할은 확인되지 않았다. 혁신저항의 조절효과 검정을 통해, 혁신저항이 정부지원기대와 스마트팩토리 도입의도 간 정(+)의 조절역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 혁신저항이 크면 클수록 정부지원기대가 스마트팩토리 도입의도에 미치는 영향력이 혁신저항이 적은 경우보다 커지는 것으로 나타났다.

최근 딥러닝 기술이 주목을 받고 있다. 대중들의 관심을 받았던 국제 이미지 인식 기술 대회(ILSVR)와 알파고(AlphaGo)에서 사용된 딥러닝 기술이 바로 합성곱 신경망(CNN; Convolution Neural Network)이다. 합성곱 신경망은 입력 이미지를 작은 구역으로 나누어 부분적인 특징을 인식하고 이것을 결합하여 전체를 인식하는 특징을 가진다. 이러한 딥러닝 기술이 우리의 생활에 있어 많은 변화를 야기할 것이라는 기대를 주고 있지만 현재까지는 이미지 인식과 자연어 처리 등에 그 성과가 국한되어 있다. 비즈니스 문제에 대한 딥러닝 활용은 아직까지 초기 연구 단계로 향후 마케팅 응답 예측이나 허위 거래 식별, 부도 예측과 같은 전통적 비즈니스 문제들에 대해 보다 깊게 활용되고 그 성능이 입증된다면 딥러닝 기술의 활용 가치가 보다 더 주목받게 될 것으로 기대된다. 이러한 때 비교적 고객 식별이 용이하고 활용 가치가 높은 빅데이터를 보유하고 있는 전자상거래 기업의 사례를 바탕으로 하여 딥러닝 기술의 비즈니스 문제 해결 가능성을 진단해보는 것은 학술적으로 매우 의미 있는 시도라 할 수 있겠다. 이에 본 연구에서는 전자상거래 기업의 고객 행태 예측력을 높이기 위한 방안으로 합성곱 신경망을 활용한 '이종 정보 결합(Heterogeneous Information Integration)의 CNN 모델'을 제시한다. 이는 정형과 비정형 정보를 결합하여 다층 퍼셉트론 구조의 합성곱 신경망에서 학습시키는 모델로서 최적의 성능을 발휘하도록 '이종 정보 결합'과 '비정형 정보의 벡터 전환', 그리고 '다층 퍼셉트론 설계'로 하는 3개의 내부 아키텍처를 정의하고 각 아키텍처 단위로 구성되는 방식에 따른 성능을 평가하여 그 결과를 바탕으로 제안 모델을 확정하고 그 성능을 평가해보고자 한다. 고객 행태 예측을 위한 목표 변수는 전자상거래 기업에서 중요하게 관리하고 있는 재구매 고객, 이탈 고객, 고빈도 구매 고객, 고빈도 반품 고객, 고단가 구매 고객, 고할인 구매 고객 등 모두 6개의 이진 분류 문제로 정의한다. 제안한 모델의 유용성을 검증하기 위해서 국내 특정 전자상거래 기업의 실제 데이터를 활용하여 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과 정형과 비정형 정보를 결합하여 CNN을 활용한 제안 모델이 NBC(Naïve Bayes classification)과 SVM(Support vector machine), 그리고 ANN(Artificial neural network)에 비해서 예측 정확도와 F1 Measure가 높게 평가되었다. 또 NBC, SVM, ANN에서 정형 정보만을 사용할 때 보다 정형과 비정형 정보를 결합하여 입력 변수로 함께 활용한 경우에 예측 정확도가 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 실험 결과로부터 비정형 정보의 활용이 고객 행태 예측의 정확도 향상에 기여한다는 점과 CNN 기법의 특징 추출 알고리즘이 VOC에 사용된 단어들의 분포와 위치 정보를 해석하여 문장의 의미를 파악하는데 효과적이라는 점을 실증적으로 확인하였다는데 그 의미가 있다고 할 수 있겠다. 이를 통해서 CNN 기법이 지금까지 소개된 이미지 인식이나 자연어 처리 분야 외에 비즈니스 문제 해결에도 활용 가치가 높다는 점을 확인하였다는데 이 연구의 의의가 있다 하겠다.

기업신용등급은 금융시장의 신뢰를 구축하고 거래를 활성화하는데 있어 매우 중요한 요소로서, 오래 전부터 학계에서는 보다 정확한 기업신용등급 예측을 가능케 하는 다양한 모형들을 연구해 왔다. 구체적으로 다중판별분석(Multiple Discriminant Analysis, MDA)이나 다항 로지스틱 회귀분석(multinomial logistic regression analysis, MLOGIT)과 같은 통계기법을 비롯해, 인공신경망(Artificial Neural Networks, ANN), 사례기반추론(Case-based Reasoning, CBR), 그리고 다분류 문제해결을 위해 확장된 다분류 Support Vector Machines(Multiclass SVM)에 이르기까지 다양한 기법들이 학자들에 의해 적용되었는데, 최근의 연구결과들에 따르면 이 중에서도 다분류 SVM이 가장 우수한 예측성과를 보이고 있는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 다분류 SVM의 성능을 한 단계 더 개선하기 위한 대안으로 유전자 알고리즘(GA, Genetic Algorithm)을 활용한 최적화 모형을 제안한다. 구체적으로 본 연구의 제안모형은 유전자 알고리즘을 활용해 다분류 SVM에 적용되어야 할 최적의 커널 함수 파라미터값들과 최적의 입력변수 집합(feature subset)을 탐색하도록 설계되었다. 실제 데이터셋을 활용해 제안모형을 적용해 본 결과, MDA나 MLOGIT, CBR, ANN과 같은 기존 인공지능/데이터마이닝 기법들은 물론 지금까지 가장 우수한 예측성과를 보이는 것으로 알려져 있던 전통적인 다분류 SVM 보다도 제안모형이 더 우수한 예측성과를 보임을 확인할 수 있었다.

Ti(C,N) 박막을 온도범위 $200-300^{\circ}C$에서 tetrakis diethylamido titanium유기금속 화합물을 전구체로 이용하여 pulsed DC 플라즈마 보조 유기금속 화학기상 증착법 (PEMOCVD)으로 합성하였다. 본 연구에서는 플라즈마 특성을 서로 비교하기 위하여 수소$(N_2)$와 헬륨/수소$(He/H_2)$ 혼합기체를 각각 운반기체로 사용하였으며 전구체 이외에 질소$(N_2)$와 암모니아$(NH_3)$ 기체를 반응기체로 사용하여 서로 다른 플라즈마 화학조건에서 얻어지는 박막내의 탄소함유량(C Content)의 변화를 비교하여 탄소가 가장 적게 함유된 저온 코팅막 합성공정을 찾으려고 하였다. 이를 위하여 증착시 서로 다른 pulsed bias 전압과 기체종류 하에서 여기된 플라즈마 상태의 라디칼종들과 이온화 경향을 in-situ optical emission spectroscopy(OES)법으로 플라즈마 진단분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 $(He/H_2)$ 혼합기체를 $N_2$와 함께 사용할 경우 라디칼 종들의 이온화를 매우 효과적으로 향상시킴을 관찰하였다. 아울러 $NH_3$ 기체를 $H_2$ 또는 $He/H_2$ 혼합기체와 같이 사용할 경우는 CN 라디칼의 생성을 억제하여 결과적으로 Ti(C, N) 박막내의 탄소함량을 크게 낮춤을 알 수 있었고, CN 라디칼의 농도가 탄소 함유량과 많은 관련이 있음을 알았다. 이 결과는 바로 박막의 미세경도와도 연관이 되며, bias전압과 기체종류에 크게 의존하여 Ti(C, N) 박막의 미세경도가 1250 - 1760 Hk0.01 사이에서 나타났고, 최대치$(1760\;Hk_{0.01})$는 600 V bias 전압과 $H_2$와 $N_2$ 기체를 사용한 경우에 얻어졌다. HF(C, N) 박막 역시 tetrakis diethylamido hafnium 전구체와 $N_2/He-H_2$ 혼합기체를 이용하여 pulsed DC PEMOCVD 법으로 기판온도 $300^{\circ}C$ 이하, 공정압력 1 Torr, 그리고 bias전압과 기체 혼합비를 변화시키면서 증착하였다. 증착시 in-situ OES 분석결과 플라즈마 내의 질소종의 함유량 변화에 따라 증착속도가 크게 변화됨을 알 수 있었고, 많은 질소기체를 인입하면 질소종이 많아지지만 증착률은 급격히 감소하였고 박막내 탄소의 함량이 커지면서 막질이 비정질로 바뀌고 미세경도 또한 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 이는 in-situ 플라즈마 진단분석이 전체 PEMOCVD 공정에 있어서 대단히 중요하고, Ti(C,N)과 Hf(C,N) 코팅막의 탄소함량과 미세경도는 플라즈마내의 CH과 CN radical종의 세기에 크게 의존함을 의미한다. 그리고 Hf(C,N) 박막의 경우도 Ti(C,N) 박막의 경우와 유사하게 최대 미세경도값$(2460\;Hk_{0.025})$이 -600 V bias 전압과 10% 질소기체 혼합비를 사용한 경우에 얻어졌고, 이는 박막이 주로(111) 방향으로 성장됨에 기인한 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구는 경제적으로 국내에 큰 영향을 주었던 글로벌 금융위기를 기반으로 총 10년의 연간 기업데이터를 이용한다. 먼저 시대 변화 흐름에 일관성있는 부도 모형을 구축하는 것을 목표로 금융위기 이전(2000~2006년)의 데이터를 학습한다. 이후 매개 변수 튜닝을 통해 금융위기 기간이 포함(2007~2008년)된 유효성 검증 데이터가 학습데이터의 결과와 비슷한 양상을 보이고, 우수한 예측력을 가지도록 조정한다. 이후 학습 및 유효성 검증 데이터를 통합(2000~2008년)하여 유효성 검증 때와 같은 매개변수를 적용하여 모형을 재구축하고, 결과적으로 최종 학습된 모형을 기반으로 시험 데이터(2009년) 결과를 바탕으로 딥러닝 시계열 알고리즘 기반의 기업부도예측 모형이 유용함을 검증한다. 부도에 대한 정의는 Lee(2015) 연구와 동일하게 기업의 상장폐지 사유들 중 실적이 부진했던 경우를 부도로 선정한다. 독립변수의 경우, 기존 선행연구에서 이용되었던 재무비율 변수를 비롯한 기타 재무정보를 포함한다. 이후 최적의 변수군을 선별하는 방식으로 다변량 판별분석, 로짓 모형, 그리고 Lasso 회귀분석 모형을 이용한다. 기업부도예측 모형 방법론으로는 Altman(1968)이 제시했던 다중판별분석 모형, Ohlson(1980)이 제시한 로짓모형, 그리고 비시계열 기계학습 기반 부도예측모형과 딥러닝 시계열 알고리즘을 이용한다. 기업 데이터의 경우, '비선형적인 변수들', 변수들의 '다중 공선성 문제', 그리고 '데이터 수 부족'이란 한계점이 존재한다. 이에 로짓 모형은 '비선형성'을, Lasso 회귀분석 모형은 '다중 공선성 문제'를 해결하고, 가변적인 데이터 생성 방식을 이용하는 딥러닝 시계열 알고리즘을 접목함으로서 데이터 수가 부족한 점을 보완하여 연구를 진행한다. 현 정부를 비롯한 해외 정부에서는 4차 산업혁명을 통해 국가 및 사회의 시스템, 일상생활 전반을 아우르기 위해 힘쓰고 있다. 즉, 현재는 다양한 산업에 이르러 빅데이터를 이용한 딥러닝 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있지만, 금융 산업을 위한 연구분야는 아직도 미비하다. 따라서 이 연구는 기업 부도에 관하여 딥러닝 시계열 알고리즘 분석을 진행한 초기 논문으로서, 금융 데이터와 딥러닝 시계열 알고리즘을 접목한 연구를 시작하는 비 전공자에게 비교분석 자료로 쓰이기를 바란다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR.

A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury.

1. 목적 자동분주기를 이용하여 검사한 Cyclosporine검사에서 표준액들이 curve를 벗어나고, 결과값의 재현성이 크게 떨어지는 것이 발견되었다. Cyclosporine검사는 다른 검사와 차이점이 methanol과 전혈을 혼합 후 원심분리 하여 methanol 추출액을 사용하여 검사를 한다는 것이다. 검사 결과 이상의 원인이 methanol 사용에 의한 것으로 파악되어 본 실험을 시작하였다. 본원에서 사용하는 분주기는 Perkin Elmer 사의 Multiprobe II plus 로, 분주하는 액체의 점도, 샘플링 tip의 size, 사용하는 모터의 속도에 따라 여러 설정값을 조정하라고 안내되어 있을 뿐 정확한 지침은 없었다. 이에 사용하는 액체별 분주성능을 측정하고 최적의 분주성능을 위한 설정값을 찾기 위해 연구하였다. 2. 대상 및 방법 분주력 측정을 위해 4가지 용액(water, serum, methanol, PEG 6000(25%))와 $TSH^{125}I$ tracer (515 kBq)을 사용 하였고, 실제 결과 값을 비교하기 위해 2016년 1월에 본원에 검사 의뢰된 Cyclosporine검체 29개를 측정하였다. 4가지의 용액을 multi pipette을 이용하여 각각 $400{\mu}l$ 분주하고 tracer $100{\mu}l$씩을 섞어 용액별로 8개의 검체를 준비하였다. 준비된 sample을 분주기로 $100{\mu}l$씩 분주하여 CPM을 측정하고, 용액별로 CV(%)를 계산하였다. 그리고 분주기의 air gap, 분주속도와 지연시간을 변경한 후 다시 분주하여 측정한 CPM을 CV(%)로 계산하여 설정 값 변경에 따른 CV(%)값의 변화를 측정하여 최적의 설정 값을 찾는다. Cyclosporine검체 29개를 (1)manual검사 (2)기존 설정 값으로 검사 (3)수정한 설정값으로 검사 했을 때의 결과를 비교하였다. 용액별 분주력 평가는 CV(%)를 이용하여 계산하였고, 실제 검사 결과 값의 비교는 manual검사 결과를 기준으로 기존 설정 값으로 검사 했을 때, 수정한 설정 값으로 검사 했을 때의 결과 값을 Difference(%)와 상대오차(%Relative error : %RE)로 비교해 보았다. 3. 결과 4가지 용액과 tracer를 섞어 분주한 CPM의 CV(%)는 water 0.88, serum 0.95, methanol 10.22, PEG는 0.68로 methanol을 제외한 용액들은 1% 이내였으나, methanol은 CPM 차이가 두드러졌다. methanol 분주를 기존 설정 값인 Transport air gap 0에서 2와 5로 변경하여 검사 시 CV(%)는 각각 20.16, 12.54, System air gap 0에서 2와 5로 변경 시 8.94, 1.36으로 나타났다. System air gap 2, Transport air gap 2로 변경 시 CV(%)는 12.96, System air gap 5, Transport air gap 5로 변경 시 1.33 이었고, Dispense speed를 300에서 100으로 변경 시 CV(%)는 13.32, Dispense delay를 200에서 100으로 변경 시는 13.55인 것으로 나타났다. 분주기를 이용하여 기존설정 값으로 검사 시에는 manual검사 결과 값에 비해 평균 99.44%증가 하였고, 상대오차는 93.59%로 나타났다. 수정된 설정 값(System air gap 0에서 5로 변경, 다른 설정은 기존과 동일)으로 검사 했을 때는 manual검사 결과 값에 비해 결과가 평균 6.75% 증가 하였고, 상대오차는 5.10%로 상대오차의 허용기준치 10%에 비하여 양호한 결과가 나왔다. 4. 결론 Transport air gap, Dispense speed, Delay time을 조정하였을 때는 CV(%)가 증가하였고, System air gap을 조정 하였을 때 CV(%)가 현저하게 감소하였다. 실제 검사결과에서도 이를 확인 할 수 있었다. methanol을 이용한 Cyclosporine검사 kit는 올해 2월에 단종이 되었지만, 분주기를 사용함에 있어 용액에 따른 분주성능에 차이가 있을 수 있음을 염두해 두어야 하고 새로운 용액을 분주해야 할때는 미량저울로 분주량을 측정하거나 CPM으로 분주성능을 측정하여 해당 용액이 분주기를 사용함에 적절한지 검증 후 사용하여야 할 것으로 사료되어 본 실험결과를 보고하고자 한다.
