일반 X-선 촬영에서 경험이 없는 비숙련자의 경우, 검사 실패의 경험을 통해 숙련되는 과정을 겪는다. 이것은 불필요한 의료 피폭 가중의 문제를 유발한다. 본 연구에서는 배치 전 비숙련 방사선사가 임상 숙련도를 높일 수 있는 방안으로, 시각적, 공간적 보조 장치를 이용한 두개골 측방향 촬영 실습을 통해, 촬영 보조장치 사용에 따른 정확도와 유용성을 평가하였다. 육안적 관찰과 학습에 의존해서 촬영한 경우 영상 왜곡을 나타내는 회전 이격도 7.85 ± 1.45 mm, 기울임 이격도 4.84 ± 0.5 mm였다. 시각적 보조 장치를 이용해서 실습한 경우 회전 이격도 4.4 ± 0.76 mm, 기울임 이격도 3.01 ± 0.87mm였다. 공간적 보정 기구를 이용해서 실습한 경우 회전과 기울임 이격도는 5.2 ± 0.69 mm, 3.33 ± 0.61 mm로 나타났다. 배치 후 작업 환경과 동일한 조건에서 경험적 촬영 실습에 의한 영상 왜곡은 5.4% 감소하였으나, 기울임에 의한 영상 왜곡은 1.2% 증가하였다. 시각적 보조 장치를 이용해서 실습한 경우, 경험적 촬영 실습보다 회전이격도 40.1% 기울임 이격도 30.7% 감소하였다. 공간적 보정 기구를 사용할 경우, 기존의 경험적 실습 방식보다 회전 이격도 41.7%, 기울임 이격도 23.7% 감소하였다. 따라서 비숙련 방사선사의 배치 전 시각적, 공간적 촬영 보조 기구를 이용한 실습은 배치 후 검사 정확도 향상과 재촬영률 감소에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

정위적 방사선수술을 시행하기 위하여 CT, MR, 그리고 digital angiography 의 표적 위치결정의 정확도를 평가하였다. 특정한 지점의 위치가 이미 알려져 있는 (정밀도 : 0.lmm 이내) geometrical phantom 을 CT 혹은 MR로 scan 하였다. Scan 간격은 3mm 이었으며 FOV (Field of View)는 CT의 경우 35cm, MR 의 경우 28cm 이었다. 얻어진 영상은 GE format 의 형태로 TCP/IP를 이용하여 치료계획 컴퓨터로 전달되었다. 각 영상을 컴퓨터로 분석하여 얻은 측정된 좌표값을 이미 알고 있는 값과 비교하였다. Digital angiography 의 경우, 좌표값을 결정하기 위하여 anterior-posterior 방향과 lateral 방향의 film을 얻었으며 이 film은 film scanner를 이용하여 치료계획 컴퓨터로 전달되었다. CT 영상의 위치결정 오차는 1.2$\pm$0.5 mm이었으며 MR의 경우에는 coronal 및 sagittal 영상에 대하여 각각 평균 1.7$\pm$0.4mm, 2.1$\pm$0.7mm의 오차가 있었다. 반면에 Axial 영상의 경우에는 오차가 평균 4.7$\pm$ 0.9mm이었다. Digital angiography 의 위치결정 오차는 0.9$\pm$0.4mm이었다. CT, MR, 그리고 Angiography 등과 같은 진단장비를 이용하여 표적의 위치 및 형태를 정의하는데 있어서의 정확도는 진단 영상의 분해능 및 distortion 과 밀접한 관련을 가지고 있다. CT의 경우, 위치결정 오차는 주로 영상의 slice 간격에 따른 분해능에 의존하며 MR 영상의 경우에는 영상자체의 분해능과 더불어 head frame에 의한 distortion이 크게 작용하였다. 반면에 Digital angiography의 경우에는 fiducial marker의 distortion으로 인한 오차가 가장 크게 영향을 주었다. 본 연구의 결과는 치료계획시 PTV(Planning Target Volume)를 결정할 때 반드시 고려되어야 한다.

Recently various types of driver assistance systems have been used for automobiles. In 2008, the U.S Congress passed a law which required that most cars be equipped with devices to warn objects behind the vehicle. Because of that, market of rear view cameras is expected to rise dramatically. Therefore many suppliers try to provide a wide angle camera for car makers. But a high distortion is caused by the wide angle might result in lower image quality. In order to improve the image quality, normally we use an algorithm to correct a distortion. Though we can improve the distorted image by correction algorithm, we must pay more cost to use it. In this paper, we propose a new optical system reducing a distortion in contrast to a conventional lens without cost. In other words, we can see only an area of interest. That is similar to reducing a field of view. Using a new optical system, we can get a less distorted image. In order to view an area of interest, we introduce an off axis optical system having refractive surfaces and reflective surfaces. In this paper, we describe the results of design and, evaluation of an off axis wide angle compact imaging system. In comparison to conventional wide angle lens, we can get the improvement of MTF, distortion, and lateral color aberrations. And we also can reduce a total cost because we don't need the outer apparatus or bracket to mount on the car.

Purpose: This study compared the effectiveness of three methods, fascial distortion model (FDM), myofascial release (MFR), self-myofascial release (SMR), on the neck range of motion and pain. Methods: In this study, the collected data were processed statistically using SPSS version 22.0 for Windows. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the general characteristics of the subjects. Repeated measure ANOVA was conducted to analyze the range of motion of the neck of the group and VAS, and Contras was used to see the difference in significance over time. One-way ANOVA was used to compare the differences among the groups and a post-hoc test was used. The significance level (${\alpha}$) was 0.05. Results: In the range of motion, the flexion and extension of the neck, right rotation, and left rotation were significantly different in the SMR, FDM, and MFR groups. The right lateral flexion showed significant differences in the FDM, MFR, and SMR groups. The VAS was similar in the groups at 2 and 4 weeks, but there was a significant difference among the FDM, MFR, and SMR groups at 6 weeks. Conclusion: In this study, MFR and MSR as well as FDM were effective in controlling the range of motion and pain control of the neck. Further studies will be needed to determine the effects of long-lasting treatments other than pain control. These studies and the present study will be used as a basis for ongoing research into the duration and method of application for musculoskeletal therapies.

In this study, Model test of concrete frame structures with various shapes and locations are carried out by means of applying Peck's(1969) settlement method. The results of the model test indicated that important correlations existed between the behavior of frame structure and ground movement. Also, the damage level of frame structure closely influenced by the phase of excavation. Therefore, prediction of damage level at early phase of construction should be very precise. The damage level graph by Cording et al.(2001), the angular distortion provided gradually more serious damage to frame structures for the all cases. But the damage level graph by Burland(1997), was difficult to confirm because of very small amount of deflection ratio.

본 연구에서는 개구제형 트윈 거더 교량의 곡률에 따른 상부수평브레이싱 부재력 산정식의 적절성 및 적용성을 검토하였다. 이를 위해 3경간 연속교를 대상으로 곡률반경을 50m에서 1,200m로 변화시켜 상부수평브레이싱의 부재력 산정식과 3차원 유한요소해석을 통한 부재력을 비교하였다. 그리하여 상부수평브레이싱의 공칭부재력을 계산할 수 있는 보정계수를 제안하였다. 특히 상부수평브레이싱 수직재 부재력 산정식은 3차원 유한요소해석결과와 잘 부합하지 않는 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 가로보의 유무에 따른 교축직각방향 강성의 영향이라 판단된다. 그리고 사재와 수직재의 휨, 비틀림, 뒤틀림 및 수평분력의 영향을 곡률별로 도식화하여 나타내었다.

Cephalogram is one of the most important tool in researching growth and development of craniofacial area, orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. But its inherent distortion of actual length and angles during projecting three dimensional object to two dimensional plane might cause errors in quantitative analysis of shape and size. three dimensional high quality images can be obtained using computerized tomogram and have reported in literatures. Considering its expenses and amount of exposure to radiation, limitations still remain to be solved in its application to routine practice. construction of three dimensional image using principle of orientator can be obtained by biplanar stereoradiography. Theoretically two images, lateral and P-A can be used to construct three dimensional image provided that those are taken at same time by two different focal spots. As two images(lateral and P-A) obtained by conventional cephalogram have different head posture, those need compensation to construct three dimensional images. This study introduced principle of computerized head posture compensation and showed that conventional cephalogram could be used to construct three dimensional image and could be applied to routine orthodontic practice.

Pultruded cross-sections are always thin-walled due to constraints in the manufacturing process. Thus, the buckling strength determines the overall strength of the member. The elastic buckling of pultruded angle sections subjected to direct compression is studied. The lateral-torsional buckling, very likely to appear in thin-walled cross-sections, is investigated. Plate theory is used to allow for cross-sectional distortion. Shear effects and bending-twisting coupling are accounted for in the analysis because of their significant role. A simplified approach for determining the maximum load of equal leg angle sections under compression is presented. The analytical results obtained in this study are compared to the manufacturer's design guidelines for compression members as well as with the design specifications for steel structural members. Experimental results are obtained for various length specimens of pultruded angle sections. The results presented in this paper correspond to actual pultruded equal leg angle sections being used in civil engineering structures.

Ground movements during tunnelling have the potential for major impact on nearby buildings, utilities and streets. The impacts on buildings are assessed by linking the magnitude of ground loss at the source of ground loss around tunnel to the lateral and vertical displacements on the ground surface, and then to the lateral strain and angular distortion, and resulting damage in the building. To prevent or mitigate the impacts on nearby buildings, it is important to understand the whole mechanism from tunnelling to building damage. This paper discusses tunneling-induced ground movements and their impacts on nearby buildings, including the importance of the soil-structure interactions. In addition, a building damage criterion, which is based on the state of strain, is presented and discussed in detail and the overall damage assessment procedure is provided for the estimation of tunnelling-induced building damage considering the effect of soil-structure interaction.

Reconstruction of the upper lateral lip subunit is challenging, and use of several classical local flaps have been previously reported. However, these methods have drawbacks such as visible scarring, anatomic distortion, and functional disability. To obtain satisfactory results, preservation of perioral function is important. We report a case of functional upper lip reconstruction after tumor resection using a reverse facial-submental artery island flap with a reinnervated anterior belly of the digastric muscle (ABDM) without sacrificing the perioral structure. A 73-year-old man presented with basal cell carcinoma on the left upper lip which was widely excised, including the orbicularis oris muscle. The remaining 4 cm × 3.5 cm defect was reconstructed using a reverse facial-submental artery island flap with ipsilateral ABDM. The motor nerve of the ABDM was sutured with the stump of the buccal branch of the ipsilateral facial nerve. The postoperative course was uneventful, and good functional and esthetic recovery were observed at 12-month follow-up. This procedure may be an alternative option for reconstruction of lateral upper lip defects.
