배경: 많은 실험적인 연구에서 종양 조직 내의 아포프토시스와 미세 혈관의 생성은 서로 반비례한다고 보고된다. 비소세포 폐암 조직내에서 두 수치의 관계를 조사하여 보았다. 대상 및 방법:조직내의 아포프토시스의 정도는 deoxynucleotidyl trasferase방법으로(Apop Tag In Situ Apoptosis Detection Kit, ONCOR) 측정하였고, 종양내 미세 혈관 밀도는 항 CD 31 항체를 이용하였다. 결과:아포프토시스 지수와 종양내 미세 혈관 밀도 사이에는 통계적으로 유의하게 역 상관관계가 있었다(p = 0.047). 결론: 비소세포 폐암종에서 아포프토시스와 미세 혈관 생성의 정도는 서로 연관이 있다고에 할 수있다. 그리고 종양내의 신생 혈관의 생성이 종양내 아포프토시스의 억제에 기여한다고 유추 할 수 있다.

Atmospheric plasma's electron temperature is less than thermal plasma, so it is useful at bio experiment. We have investigated the optical emission spectroscopy (OES) lines by spectrometer during Atmospheric plasma bombardment onto the PBS surface by using an Ar gas flow. Also we have measured the OH radical density inside the solution induced by the Atmospheric plasma bombardment. OH radical species are appeared at 308 nm and 309 nm. Densities of OH radical species has been found to be significantly decreased versus depth of the solution from 2 mm to 6 mm. OH radical density inside the PBS is measured to be about $1.87{\times}1016cm-3$ downstream at 2 mm from the surface under optimized Ar gas flow of 200 sccm in Atmospheric plasma. Also we have investigated cell viability of lung cancer and normal cell after Atmospheric plasma treatment for fixed exposure time in 60 seconds, but different depths. We used SEM, we observed change of cell morphorogy, did experiment about FDA & PI Staining method. It is found that there is selectivity between the lung cancer and lung normal cell, in which cancer cell definitely has higher cell death ratio more than normal cell. We have investigated change of bond structure in FT-IR spectroscopy, the following peaks were observed: and intense O-H peak at 3422 cm-1 and at 2925 cm-1 corresponds to C-H stretch vibrations of methylene group.

To improve accuracy of dose calculation on kilovoltage cone beam computed tomography (kV CBCT) images, a custom-made phantom was fabricated to acquire an accurate CT number to electron density curve by full scatter of cone beam x-ray. To evaluate the dosimetric accuracy, 9 volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans for head and neck (HN) cancer and 9 VMAT plans for lung cancer were generated with an anthropomorphic phantom. Both CT and CBCT images of the anthropomorphic phantom were acquired and dose-volumetric parameters on the CT images with CT density curve (CTCT), CBCT images with CT density curve ($CBCT_{CT}$) and CBCT images with CBCT density curve ($CBCT_{CBCT}$) were calculated for each VMAT plan. The differences between $CT_{CT}$ vs. $CBCT_{CT}$ were similar to those between $CT_{CT}$ vs. $CBCT_{CBCT}$ for HN VMAT plans. However, the differences between $CT_{CT}$ vs. $CBCT_{CT}$ were larger than those between $CT_{CT}$ vs. $CBCT_{CBCT}$ for lung VMAT plans. Especially, the differences in $D_{98%}$ and $D_{95%}$ of lung target volume were statistically significant (4.7% vs. 0.8% with p = 0.033 for $D_{98%}$ and 4.8% vs. 0.5% with p = 0.030 for $D_{95%}$). In order to calculate dose distributions accurately on the CBCT images, CBCT density curve generated with full scatter condition should be used especially for dose calculations in the region of large inhomogeneity.

이 연구 목적은 흉부영상의 진단에 적절한 해상력과 음영에 대한 적절한 평가를 위해서다. 해상력을 비교하기 위해서, linear 해상력 팬텀을 사용하여 film/screen(선생님이 원하시는 conventional radiography : film/screen), CR, DR, 촬영했다. 해상력을 비교하기 위해 2명의 영상의학과 전문의와 3명의 방사선사가 블라인드 테스트를 통하여 평가했다. DR 은 3.95 필름/ 스크린은 3.58, CR은 3.48의 평가가 나왔다. 음영에 대해 분석은, CR, DR의 film/screen의 정상적인 흉부영상 50장을 선택했다. 이 흉부영상에서 7부위(폐야, 폐야 윤곽, 종격동 I, 종격동 II, 심장 음영 I, 심장음영 II, 횡격막)을 정하여 덴시토미터(농도계)을 사용하여 음영을 평가했다. 우리의 분석 방법은 낮은 영상(음영)을 0에서부터 가장 우수한 영상(음영) 2를 정한 일본의 흉부 x-ray 평가 방법을 적용했다. DR의 경우 종격동 1, 종격동2, 심장 1, 심장2, 횡격막에서 2점을 기록하여 우수했다. 이와 반대로 CR에서는 폐부위와 폐음영 부위에서 2점으로 우수했다. 결론적으로, 해상력과 음영에 비교하면 후처리 알고리즘과 작은 픽셀 사이즈에 의한 DR은 CR과 film/screen 보다 우수하다고 도출하였다.

A thorax is consisted of a heart, great vesseles, lungs, ribs, sternum and thoracic spine etc. The quality of chest radiogram is very important in order to find out abnormality in the lung field. The image has two major characteristics; density and contrast which directly influence the diagnostic quality of the roentgenogram. It is very hard to make excellent film image in the lung field because of overlapping bones and other soft tissues. To take a good radiogram of lung field, we studied the condition of chest P-A projection in adult and obtained results as follows: 1. The average chest radiographic condition is resulted as 62KVP, 16 mAs in hospitals around Kyung Ki-Do, Korea, 2. The density of the chest 20cm in thickness, is equal to the water phantom 8cm in thickness. 3. The best quality of chest radiogram is achieved in the condition of the lung field at 100KVP, 9.6mAs by use of Grid 8:1.

Objectives : Effects of Rhodiola rosea root on cancers on stomach, breast, lung, and liver were examined. Methods : Water extracts and methanol extracts of Rhodiola rosea root were treated on cancer cells, and its effects on cancers were examined. Results : 1. Water extracts and methanol extracts of Rhodiola rosea root was less harmful in its lowest density 0.25 mg/mL (9.l%와 10.5%), but became more harmful as its density increased. 2. As for human stomach adenocarcinoma cells AGS, breast adenocarcinoma cells MCF-7, and lung carcinoma cells A549, methanol extracts showed 70-77% inhibition of cancer cells in high density(1 mg/mL), and water extracts showed 60-70% inhibition rate and its selective death rate was less than 2.5. Conclusion : Rhodiola rosea root can be used to treat cancers and to increase immunity.

Intralobar pulmonary sequestration is rare congenital lung disease, in which systemic artery supplies a congenitally cystic portion of the lung. Patient was 19 years old male whose complaints were fever, chest pain and sputum. Chest film showed a round homogenous density and air-fluid level at the left lower lung field and on bronchogram, contrast materials did not enter the abscess pocket. By operation multiple lung abscess pockets at the lower lobe were noted. An aberrant artery, measuring 0.4cm. in diameter and 2 cm. in length, arised from the aorta just above the diaphragm and entered the pusterior basal segment of left lower lobe. After division of the artery, left lower lobectomy was done ana postoperative hospital course was uneventful. Pathologic findings were multiple lung cysts which were not connected to the left lower lobe bronchi and an aberrant artery which showed elastic lamillation and mild sclerotic change.

Background and Objective: Lung cancer is one of the malignant diseases which most seriously threat humansurvival and development. This study aimed to assess osteopontin (OPN) expression in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and any relationship with clinicopathological features. Methods: Immunohistochemistry was used to determine OPN expression and microvascular density (MVD) in 120 cases of NSCLC also undergoing clinical assessment. Results: Moderately positive expression of OPN was found in 34.6% (41/120) and strong expression in 47.5% (57/120) of the NSCLCs; OPN expression in carcinomas was higher than in pericarcinoma tissues (P<0.05). While no obvious association was observed with NSCLC patient age, gender, maximum diameter of the tumor and pathological type, OPN expression was more commonly detected in poorly differentiated carcinoma tissue and lymph node metastasis as well as at advanced clinical stage (P<0.05); OPN expression in cancer tissue was positively correlated with MVD (r = 0.839, P = 0.000). Conclusion: OPN plays an important role in promoting tumor angiogenesis and progress of NSCLCs and has the possibility to become the new target for therapy.

본 연구에서는, 혈관 내 폐 보조장치를 설계할 때 혈액의 압력손실에 대한 영향을 받지 않는 최적의 설계조건을 찾기 위하여 압력손실을 예측할 수 있는 관계식을 유도하고자 하였다. 정맥 내경의 직경을 3 cm로 고정하고 삽입되는 중공사 개수의 변화에 따른 압력손실을 측정하였으며 실험에 의하여 얻어진 압력손실과 장치의 전면면적과의 상관관계를 curve fitting을 통하여 유도하였고, 유도되어진 관계식을 이용하여 정맥 내에 삽입되는 중공사 개수의 변화에 따른 압력손실을 예측하였다. 그리고 실험을 통하여 예측되어진 값과 비교 검토하여 유사성을 찾고자 하였다. 실험결과 장치에서 액체 유속의 변화에 따라 압력손실은 2차 함수 형태로 변화됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한 장치의 전면면적이 감소하면 압력손실은 증가하였고 충진율이 증가하면 압력손실도 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 장치 내에서의 압력손실에 대한 관계식을 장치의 전면면적과 충진율의 함수로 유도할 수 있었으며, 관계식에 의하여 압력손실을 예측할 수 있었다. 또한, 실험에 의한 압력손실과 비교하였을 때 유사한 경향성을 보여 줌으로써 압력손실 예측의 신뢰성을 얻을 수 있었다.

The Swyer-James syndrome is one of the very few condition that the density of one lung is markedly less than the density of the other and frequently presents a diagnostic problem. In 1989, we reported a case of Swyer-James Syndrome. Recently, we experienced a new case of this syndrome. Left upper lobectomy was performed and postoperative pneumonia was developed, but the patient was recovered.
