  • The creativity of thesis is that the significance of cyber security challenges in blockchain. The variety of enterprises, including those in the medical market, are the targets of cyberattacks. Hospitals and clinics are only two examples of medical facilities that are easy targets for cybercriminals, along with IoT-based medical devices like pacemakers. Cyberattacks in the medical field not only put patients' lives in danger but also have the potential to expose private and sensitive information. Reviewing and looking at the present and historical flaws and vulnerabilities in the blockchain-based IoT and medical institutions' equipment is crucial as they are sensitive, relevant, and of a medical character. This study aims to investigate recent and current weaknesses in medical equipment, of blockchain-based IoT, and institutions. Medical security systems are becoming increasingly crucial in blockchain-based IoT medical devices and digital adoption more broadly. It is gaining importance as a standalone medical device. Currently the use of software in medical market is growing exponentially and many countries have already set guidelines for quality control. The achievements of the thesis are medical equipment of blockchain-based IoT no longer exist in a vacuum, thanks to technical improvements and the emergence of electronic health records (EHRs). Increased EHR use among providers, as well as the demand for integration and connection technologies to improve clinical workflow, patient care solutions, and overall hospital operations, will fuel significant growth in the blockchain-based IoT market for linked medical devices. The need for blockchain technology and IoT-based medical device to enhance their health IT infrastructure and design and development techniques will only get louder in the future. Blockchain technology will be essential in the future of cybersecurity, because blockchain technology can be significantly improved with the cybersecurity adoption of IoT devices, i.e., via remote monitoring, reducing waiting time for emergency rooms, track assets, etc. This paper sheds the light on the benefits of the blockchain-based IoT market.

  • To increase therapeutic efficiency and biological safety, it is important to precision control of acoustic output for therapeutic ultrasound equipment. In this paper, the electro-acoustic radiation conductance, one of electroacoustic characteristics of therapeutic ultrasound equipment, was measured by the radiation force balance method according to IEC 61161 standards and the acoustic output was estimated using the electro-acoustic radiation conductance. The estimation of acoustic output was conducted to continuous wave mode and pulse wave mode of duty cycle between 20% and 80%. The differences between prediction values and measurement results are within 5% of measurement uncertainty, which is a reasonably good agreement. The results show that acoustic output controlled by electro-acoustic radiation conductance was found to be an effective method.

  • 아두이노와 압력센서를 이용하여 현대인의 관심사인 건강관리 프로그램을 만드는 것이 목적이다. 현재 한국에는 총 420만명의 요실금 환자가 있을 것으로 추정된다. Information Technology와 Bio Technology의 융합을 통해 이러한 환자들이 쉽고 간단하며 가장 효과적인 골반저근운동(이하 케겔운동) 을 할 수 있도록 유도하여 요실금, 발기부전 등을 치료, 예방한다. 현재 시중에 판매되는 케겔 의료기기는 전기적 자극을 강제로 주어 운동을 해야 하는 시스템으로 하의를 탈의하고 폐쇄된 공간에서 Femcon Therapy를 주로 사용 하였으며 이는 시간제약, 공간제약, 위생적인 제약 등의 문제가 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 제약에서 벗어나 하의를 탈의하지 않고 공간과 위생의 제약에서 벗어나 BT와 IT를 융합한 케겔(Kegel) 의료기를 설계 하였다.

  • Nowadays, gastropathy is a common disease. As endoscopic equipment are developed and used widely, it is possible to provide a large number of endoscopy images. Computer-aided Diagnosis (CADx) systems aim at helping physicians to identify possibly malignant abnormalities more accurately. In this paper, we present a CADx system to detect and classify the abnormalities of gastric lesions which include bleeding, ulcer, neuroendocrine tumor and cancer. We used an Inception module based deep learning model. And we used data augmentation for learning. Our preliminary results demonstrated promising potential for automatically labeled region of interest for endoscopy doctors to focus on abnormal lesions for subsequent targeted biopsy, with Az values of Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC) curve was 0.83. The proposed CADx system showed reliable performance.

  • We developed the 4-channel Light Medical Therapy Apparatus for Skin Injury Cure using a high brightness LED. This equipment was fabricated using a micro-controller and a high brightness LED, and designed to enable us to control light irradiation time, intensity and reservation. In this paper, the designed device was used to find out how high brightness LED light affects the skin injury of SD-Rat(Sprague-Dawley Rat). In the experiment, $1\;cm^2$ wounds on the skin injury of SD-Rat(Sprague-Dawley Rat) were made. Light irradiation group and none light irradiation group divided, each group was irradiated one hour a day for 14 days. In result, compared with none light irradiation group, the lower incidence of inflammation and faster recovery was shown in light irradiation group.

  • Electrosurgical Unit(ESU) is medical equipment that cut or coag tissues using electrical energy. It is used in hospitals' outpatient clinic room and operating room. Improper use of an ESU may cause fatal injuries to the patient, such as burns. So, before using an ESU, make sure that it is supplying enough energy for cut and coag by measuring the output power and checking the output power cable. In this study, we developed a simple ESU power measurement system PW100 that allows anyone to check the basic output power. And PW100 can check the state of the cable associated with the output power before using ESU. Then, we compared the measured output power of the PW100 with an ESU Analyzer which was commercialized, and compared the performance. In the experiment, the output power measured by the PW100 was lower value than an ESU Analyzer's that. However, the PW100's output power measured in the 5% error range and showed stable reproducibility by a low %RSD value.

  • Nowadays there are magnetic sensors in a wide variety of equipment such as computers, cars, airplanes, medical and industrial instruments. In many of these applications the magnetic sensors offer safe and non-invasive means of detection and are more reliable than other technologies. The electric current in a conductor generates a magnetic field detected by this type of sensor. This work aims to define a package dedicated to an electrical current sensor using a MTJ (Magnetic Tunnel Junction) as a sensing device. Four different proposals of packaging, three variations of the chip on board (CoB) package type and one variation of the thin small outline package (TSOP) were analyzed by COMSOL modeling software by simulating a brad range of current injection. The results obtained from the thermal and magnetic analysis has proven to be very important for package improvements, specially for heat dissipation performance.
