  • The PID control to the monitor color correction was applied. Converted Gamma LUT was applied to the video card. Color and brightness information from the PID controller was used as control inputs. Color and brightness information from a calibrated monitor is measured again. Then, the difference between the preset values for the PID controller was compensated by the feedback. The software measured by color meter was used for color and brightness information. All of the monitor does not measure the color and brightness was measured by sampling. The color and brightness from the monitor were measured not by complete enumeration but by sampling. In the experiment, the original image was displayed on the same monitor as well as two other brands, and then, Gamma and Contrast were measured and compared.

  • Sequential brain SPECT imaging has been used to assess the cerebral perfusion reserve(CPR) in cerebrovascular diseases(UD). We have realized parametric images of CPR using deadtime correction of gamma camera and normalized difference ratio. For the anatomical localization of CPR, the parametric images were registered to the contours of the cerebral regions using optimal threshold method, which showed to reflect the CPR more reliably and distinctively than the simple subtraction. We conclude that the quantitative estimation of CPR using normalized difference ratio image could be useflll for the diagnosis and prognostic assessment of CVD.

  • Spherical NaI(Tl) detectors are used in gamma-ray spectrometry, where the gamma emissions come from the nuclei with energies in the range from a few keV up to 10 MeV. A spherical detector is aimed to give a good response to photons, which depends on their direction of travel concerning the detector center. Some distortions in the response of a gamma-ray detector with a different geometry can occur because of the non-uniform position of the source from the detector surface. The present work describes the calibration of a NaI(Tl) spherical detector using both an experimental technique and a numerical simulation method (NSM). The NSM is based on an efficiency transfer method (ETM, calculating the effective solid angle, the total efficiency, and the full-energy peak efficiency). Besides, there is a high probability for a source-to-detector distance less than 15 cm to have pulse coincidence summing (CS), which may occur when two successive photons of different energies from the same source are detected within a very short response time. Therefore, γ-γ ray CS factors are calculated numerically for a 152Eu radioactive cylindrical source. The CS factors obtained are applied to correct the measured efficiency values for the radioactive volumetric source at different energies. The results show a good agreement between the NSM and the experimental values (after correction with the CS factors).

  • 본 논문은 MCU와 LED 드라이버를 활용한 감마 보정, 논 플리커, 구동 소음 제거 등의 개선 방안을 적용하여 LED 시스템의 사용자 친화적 시스템을 구성하는 데 초점을 맞추고 있다. 실험 결과, LED 드라이버의 22kHz PWM 모드는 가청 주파수 바깥 영역에서 소음이 발생하여 사용자는 실질적으로 소음을 인지할 수 없었으며, 정상 동작 구간인 지연율 5% 이내의 풀업 저항 값은 3kHz PWM 모드 시 1kΩ ~ 10kΩ 이며, 22kHz PWM 모드는 1kΩ ~ 2kΩ 로 확인되었다. 또한, 감마 보정을 통해 비선형적인 인간의 시각 시스템에 맞게 최적화하여 정확한 대비와 명암을 표현할 수 있으며, 결과적으로 기존의 LED 시스템보다 더 자연스럽고 정확한 표현이 가능한 LED 시스템의 개발과 사용자의 시각적인 경험을 개선할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • GafChromic EBT2 필름 dosimetry에 필요한 품질 관리용 소프트웨어를 개발하였다. 개발한 프로그램에서는 EBT2 필름특성에 맞게 붉은색, 초록색, 파란색 및 회색 채널에 따른 필름 교정이 가능하도록 하였다. 또한 평판형 스캐너의 빛의 산란 효과나 필름 내 방사선에 반응하는 물질(active layer)의 두께 차이가 선량 검증에 미치는 영향을 평가할 수 있도록 하였다. EBT2 필름을 이용한 측정 결과는 방사선 치료계획 시스템, ECLIPSE 또는 2차원 이온 전리함 배열의 선량 값과 비교할 수 있다. 개발한 소프트웨어를 이용한 GafChromic EBT2 필름의 선량 검증은 파일 입력, 잡음 제거, 배경 보정(background) 및 반응 물질 보정(active layer correction), 선량 계산 및 평가 단계를 통해서 이루어진다. 절대적 또는 상대적 배경 보정 방법을 선택적으로 적용할 수 있으며 필름 교정 결과 및 교정 곡선에 대한 적합식(fitting equation)은 결과 파일로 출력할 수 있다. 선량 행렬의 화소 크기 조정을 위한 보간법, 대화식 영상 이동 및 회전 기능을 이용하여 선량 행렬 간 구조적 위치를 일치시킨 후, 빔 측면도(beam profile) 및 등선량곡선(isodose curve)을 비교할 수 있다. 또한 거리 및 선량 차이에 대한 허용값을 적용하여 gamma index 및 gamma histogram을 이용한 선량 분석이 가능하다. 60도 동적 쐐기 조사면과 전립선 세기조절방사선치료의 조사면을 이용하여 개발한 소프트웨어의 기초 성능 평가를 수행하였을 때, 동적 쐐기 조사면에서 ECLIPSE와 EBT2 필름 간 절대적 빔 측면도는 3% 오차 범위 내에서 일치하였다. EBT2 필름을 이용한 두 종류의 선량 검증 모두, 99% 이상의 영역이 3 mm, 3%의 gamma index의 평가 기준을 만족하였다. 개발한 선량 검증용 소프트웨어를 이용하여 주기적으로 수행되는 일반적인 품질관리뿐만 아니라 빔의 세기가 조절된 복잡한 조사면의 품질관리에도 활용할 수 있으며, Radiochromic 필름을 이용한 선량 평가에 필요한 유용한 분석 툴을 제공할 수 있다.

  • Purpose: Due to developed simultaneous PET/MRI, it has become possible to obtain more anatomical image information better than conventional PET/CT. By the way, in the PET/CT, the linear absorption coefficient is measured by X-ray directly. However in case of PET/MRI, the value is not measured from MRI images directly, but is calculated by dividing as 4 segmentation ${\mu}-map$. Therefore, in this paper, we will evaluate the SUV's difference of attenuation correction PET images from PET/MRI and PET/CT. Materials and Methods: Biograph mCT40 (Siemens, Germany), Biograph mMR were used as a PET/CT, PET/MRI scanner. For a phantom study, we used a solid type $^{68}Ge$ source, and a liquid type $^{18}F$ uniformity phantom. By using VIBE-DIXON sequence of PET/MRI, human anatomical structure was divided into air-lung-fat-soft tissue for attenuation correction coefficient. In case of PET/CT, the hounsfield unit of CT was used. By setting the ROI at five places of each PET phantom images that is corrected attenuation, the maximum SUV was measured, evaluated %diff about PET/CT vs. PET/MRI. In clinical study, the 18 patients who underwent simultaneous PET/CT and PET/MRI was selected and set the ROI at background, lung, liver, brain, muscle, fat, bone from the each attenuation correction PET images, and then evaluated, compared by measuring the maximum SUV. Results: For solid $^{68}Ge$ source, SUV from PET/MRI is measured lower 88.55% compared to PET/CT. In case of liquid $^{18}F$ uniform phantom, SUV of PET/MRI as compared to PET/CT is measured low 70.17%. If the clinical study, the background SUV of PET/MRI is same with PET/CT's and the one of lung was higher 2.51%. However, it is measured lower about 32.50, 40.35, 23.92, 13.92, 5.00% at liver, brain, muscle, fat, femoral head. Conclusion: In the case of a CT image, because there is a linear relationship between 511 keV ${\gamma}-ray$ and linear absorption coefficient of X-ray, it is possible to correct directly the attenuation of 511 keV ${\gamma}-ray$ by creating a ${\mu}$map from the CT image. However, in the case of the MRI, because the MRI signal has no relationship at all with linear absorption coefficient of ${\gamma}-ray$, the anatomical structure of the human body is divided into four segmentations to correct the attenuation of ${\gamma}-rays$. Even a number of protons in a bone is too low to make MRI signal and to localize segmentation of ${\mu}-map$. Therefore, to develope a proper sequence for measuring more accurate attenuation coefficient is indeed necessary in the future PET/MRI.

  • A polystyrene phantom was developed following the guidance of the International Atomic Energy Association (IAEA) for gamma knife (GK) quality assurance. Its performance was assessed by measuring the absorbed dose rate to water and dose distributions. The phantom was made of polystyrene, which has an electron density (1.0156) similar to that of water. The phantom included one outer phantom and four inner phantoms. Two inner phantoms held PTW T31010 and Exradin A16 ion chambers. One inner phantom held a film in the XY plane of the Leksell coordinate system, and another inner phantom held a film in the YZ or ZX planes. The absorbed dose rate to water and beam profiles of the machine-specific reference (msr) field, namely, the 16 mm collimator field of a GK PerfexionTM or IconTM, were measured at seven GK sites. The measured results were compared to those of an IAEA-recommended solid water (SW) phantom. The radius of the polystyrene phantom was determined to be 7.88 cm by converting the electron density of the plastic, considering a water depth of 8 g/cm2. The absorbed dose rates to water measured in both phantoms differed from the treatment planning program by less than 1.1%. Before msr correction, the PTW T31010 dose rates (PTW Freiberg GmbH, New York, NY, USA) in the polystyrene phantom were 0.70 (0.29)% higher on average than those in the SW phantom. The Exradin A16 (Standard Imaging, Middleton, WI, USA) dose rates were 0.76 (0.32)% higher in the polystyrene phantom. After msr correction factors were applied, there were no statistically significant differences in the A16 dose rates measured in the two phantoms; however, the T31010 dose rates were 0.72 (0.29)% higher in the polystyrene phantom. When the full widths at half maximum and penumbras of the msr field were compared, no significant differences between the two phantoms were observed, except for the penumbra in the Y-axis. However, the difference in the penumbra was smaller than variations among different sites. A polystyrene phantom developed for gamma knife dosimetry showed dosimetric performance comparable to that of a commercial SW phantom. In addition to its cost effectiveness, the polystyrene phantom removes air space around the detector. Additional simulations of the msr correction factors of the polystyrene phantom should be performed.

  • A significant number of the parameters of a gamma-ray burst (GRB) and its host galaxy are calculated from the afterglow. There are various methods obtaining extinction values for the necessary correction for galactic foreground. These are: galaxy counts, from HI 21 cm surveys, from spectroscopic measurements and colors of nearby Galactic stars, or using extinction maps calculated from infrared surveys towards the GRB. We demonstrate that AKARI Far-Infrared Surveyor sky surface brightness maps are useful uncovering the fine structure of the galactic foreground of GRBs. Galactic cirrus structures of a number of GRBs are calculated with a 2 arcminute resolution, and the results are compared to that of other methods.
