  • In the thin film alloy formation of the transition metals ion-beam-mixing technique forms a metastable structure which cannot be found in the arc-melted metal alloys. Sppecifically it is well known that the studies about the electronic structure of ion-beam-mixed alloys pprovide the useful information in understanding the metastable structures in the metal alloy. We studied the electronic change in the ion-beam-mixed ppt-Ct alloys by XppS and XANES. These analysis tools pprovide us information about the charge transfer in the valence band of intermetallic bonding. The multi-layered films were depposited on the SiO2 substrate by the sequential electron beam evapporation at a ppressure of less than 5$\times$10-7 Torr. These compprise of 4 ppairs of ppt and Cu layers where thicknesses of each layer were varied in order to change the alloy compposition. Ion-beam-mixing pprocess was carried out with 80 keV Ae+ ions with a dose of $1.5\times$ 1016 Ar+/cm2 at room tempperature. The core and valence level energy shift in these system were investigated by x-ray pphotoelectron sppectroscoppy(XppS) pphotoelectrons were excited by monochromatized Al K a(1486.6 eV) The ppass energy of the hemisppherical analyzer was 23.5 eV. Core-level binding energies were calibrated with the Fermi level edge. ppt L3-edge and Cu K-edge XANES sppectra were measured with the flourescence mode detector at the 3C1 beam line of the ppLS (ppohang light source). By using the change of White line(WL) area of the each metal sites and the core level shift we can obtain the information about the electrons pparticippating in the intermetallic bonding of the ion-beam-mixed alloys.

  • The purpose of this study is to evaluate the azygos vein to aorta diameter ratio (AV/AO ratio) in healthy dogs and dogs with diseases that may cause azygos vein dilation. The normal groups included eleven healthy beagle dogs and eleven small breed dogs. The abnormal group included 43 dogs that had diseases with high right atrial pressure (RA group), obstruction of cranial or caudal vena cava (CVC group) and porto-azygos shunt group (PSS group). The diameter of AV and AO were measured at three sites on thoracic CT images; the level of the cranial endplate of 12th thoracic vertebra (TV level), the tracheal bifurcation (TB level) and the insertion to the cranial vena cava (CrVC level). The AV/AO ratio at the CrVC level had significantly higher values than those at the TV and TB levels in the normal groups. The AV/AO ratios of TV and TB levels in the CVC group and the values at all measurement sites of the PSS group were significantly higher than the normal groups. AV/AO ratio will be a useful factor for the evaluation of various clinical conditions that change the AV diameter with respect independent to the body weight in dogs.

  • 지속적 좌측상대정맥은 드문 선천성 흉부 혈관 기형이다. 지속적 좌측상대정맥은 일반적으로 혈역학적 영향이 없지만 몇 가지 유형의 지속적 좌측상대정맥과 동반되는 심장 기형은 임상 증상을 유발할 수 있다. 지속적 좌측상대정맥의 존재는 심장 박동기 또는 중심 정맥 카테터를 배치할 때 왼쪽 쇄골 하 접근을 통한 심장으로의 카테터 삽입을 어렵게 만들 수 있다. 우연히 발견된 지속적 좌측상대정맥을 인식하는 것은 혈관 손상과 같은 합병증을 예방할 수 있다. 또한 지속적 좌측상대정맥과 유사한 위치에 있는 다양한 혈관들을 감별하는 것은 향후 흉부혈관시술을 위해서 필요하다. 이번 임상 화보는 지속적 좌측상대정맥의 다중 검출기 컴퓨터단층촬영 소견을 설명하고 감별이 필요한 다른 혈관들에 대해 요약해 보고자 한다.

  • 본 실험의 목적은 두부 팬텀 MDCT에서 5 종류의 환자고정자 패드를 이용하여 노이즈, 신호대 잡음비, 선량에 대하여 방사선감수성이 민감한 안와 와 기저핵 부위를 기준으로 영상의 질을 평가하고자 하였다. 영상의 노이즈는 AP가 가장 높게 나타났으며, 신호대 잡음비는 가장 낮게 나타났다. 환자고정자 재료 5(UP, RP, PP SP, AP) 종류 중 신호대 잡음비가 가장 높은 것은 UP 이었지만 RP, PP와 더불어 통계적 유의성이 없었고(p>0.05), UP, RP, PP와 SP, AP는 통계적 유의성이 있었다(p<0.05). 이러한 원인은 방사선을 입사했을 때 SOML의 기준선에 따른 검출기의 흡수선량정도와 각각의 재질의 성분에 따라 방사선 흡수선량이 다르기 때문에 노이즈 차이를 발생하게 된다. 안와 기저핵의 CTDIvol(mGy)와 DLP 값은 각각 56.95, 911.50로 환자고정자 재료에 따라 선량의 차이는 없었다. 결론적으로, 5 종류의 환자고정자 패드는 각각의 차이를 구별할 수 있었으며 SP, AP 보다 UP, RP, PP 사용은 임상적으로 유용한 정보를 제공할 수 있다.

  • 본 연구는 MDCT (multi-detector computed tomography) 파라미터 변화에 따른 환자선량을 측정하고 평가 하고자 하였다. MDCT 파라미터의 다양한 변화에 의한 환자선량은 MDCT (GE light speed plus 4 slice, USA)와 model 2026C electrometer (RADICAL 2026C, USA), 그리고 head와 body의 CT선량 표준팬텀(standard polymethylmethacrylate)을 사용하여 측정 하였다. 그 결과 환자선량 $CTDI_w$ 값은 관전압과 관전류가 증가할수록 선형적으로 증가하였고 beam collimation이 증가 할수록 감소하였다. 따라서 관전압, 관전류는 환자의 피폭선량에 직접적인 영향을 주고 슬라이스 두께는 영향이 적은 것을 알 수 있었다. 임상의 전형적인 MDCT 복부 scan에서 120 kVp, 180 mAs, 20 mm collimation과 0.75 pitch의 조건하에 $CTDI_w$$CTDI_{vol}$의 측정값은 각각 20.2 mGy, 26.9 mGy이었고 스캔 길이가 271.3 mm인 환자의 DLP와 유효선량은 각각 $729.1\;mGy{\cdot}cm$, 10.9 mSv였다.

  • Purpose: This study was performed to evaluate condylar surface changes and remodeling after orthognathic surgery using three-dimensional computed tomography (3D CT) imaging, including comparisons between the right and left sides and between the sexes. Materials and Methods: Forty patients (20 males and 20 females) who underwent multi-detector CT examinations before and after surgery were selected. Three-dimensional images comprising thousands of points on the condylar surface were obtained before and after surgery. For the quantitative assessment of condylar surface changes, point-to-point (preoperative-to-postoperative) distances were calculated using 3D processing software. These point-to-point distances were converted to a color map. In order to evaluate the types of condylar remodeling, the condylar head was divided into six areas (anteromedial, anteromiddle, anterolateral, posteromedial, posteromiddle, and posterolateral areas) and each area was classified into three types of condylar remodeling (bone formation, no change, and bone resorption) based on the color map. Additionally, comparative analyses were performed between the right and left sides and according to sex. Results: The mean of the average point-to-point distances on condylar surface was $0.11{\pm}0.03mm$. Bone resorption occurred more frequently than other types of condylar remodeling, especially in the lateral areas. However, bone formation in the anteromedial area was particularly prominent. No significant difference was found between the right and left condyles, but condylar surface changes in males were significantly larger than in females. Conclusion: This study revealed that condylar remodeling exhibited a tendency towards bone resorption, especially in the lateral areas. Condylar surface changes occurred, but were small.

  • Purpose: When reconstruction for patients who have the large contralateral breast or a following large defect after mastectomy is required, conventional pedicled TRAM flap shows the unpredictable occurrence of fat necrosis and skin flap loss in a relatively high percentage due to insufficient blood supply. In an effort to obtain more stable TRAM flap blood circulation, we have performed a supercharged technique using deep inferior epigastric perforators (DIEP) with conventional pedicled TRAM flap. Methods: From September of 2006 to December of 2008, Fourteen supercharged TRAM flap were performed for breast reconstruction after modified radical mastectomy. The contralateral DIEP was anastomosed to the internal mammary vessels in contralateral pedicled TRAM flap or thoracodorsal vessels in ipsilateral pedicled TRAM flap. Nutrient vessels were selected by Multi-Detector Computed tomography (MD-CT) modalities. For the nutrient vessel, we used deep inferior epigastric vessels (DIEV) of the ipsilateral side in 8 patients, DIEV of the contralateral side in 6 patients. In addition, for the recipient vessel, we used thoracodorsal vessels in 8 patients, internal mammary vessels in 5 patients, intercostals artery perforators in 1 patient. Results: The mean age was 46.8 years and the average follow-up interval was 14 months. There were 11 immediate and 3 delayed breast reconstructions. Fat necrosis incidence rate in supercharged TRAM group was lower than in conventional TRAM flap group. There were no differences of the incidences of abdominal hernia in both groups. Conclusion: The supercharged TRAM flap produces an improvement in vascularity that permits use of all four zones of the flap. The breast reconstruction with supercharged technique is reliable and valuable methods which provide sufficient soft tissue from abdomen without significant complications.

  • Background: The concept of the ideal morphology for the alveolar bone form is an important element to reconstruct or restore the in maximizing esthetic profile and functional alveolar bone restoration. The purpose of this preliminary study is to evaluate the normal alveolar bone structure to provide the standard reference and guide template for use in diagnosing for implant placement, determining the correct amount of bone augmentation in actual clinical practice and producing prostheses based on three-dimensional imaging assessment of alveolar bone. Methods: This study was included 11 men and 11 women (average age, 22.6 and 24.5 years, respectively) selected from among 127 patients. The horizontal widths of alveolar bone of maxilla and mandible were measured at the crestal, mid-root, and root apex level on MDCT (multi-detector computed tomography) images reconstructed by medical imaging software. In addition, tooth dimensions of the central incisors, canines, second premolars, and first molars of maxilla and mandible, including the horizontal width of the interdental alveolar bone crest, were also measured and statistically analyzed. Results: The horizontal alveolar bone width of the palatal side of maxilla showed a distinct increment from the alveolar bone crest to the apical region in both anterior and posterior areas. The average widths of the maxillary alveolar ridge were as follows: central incisor, 7.43 mm; canine, 8.91 mm; second premolar, 9.57 mm; and first molar, 12.38 mm. The average widths of the mandibular alveolar ridge were as follows: central incisor, 6.21 mm; canine, 8.55 mm; second premolar, 8.45 mm; and first molar, 10.02 mm. In the buccal side, the alveolar bone width was not increased from the crest to the apical region. The horizontal alveolar bone width of an apical and mandibular border region was thinner than at the mid-root level. Conclusions: The results of the preliminary study are useful as a clinical guideline when determining dental implant diameter and position. And also, these measurements can also be useful during the production of prefabricated membranes and customized alveolar bone scaffolds.

  • 목 적 : 호흡연동 용적변조 회전방사선치료(Gated Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy)에서 환자의 호흡주기 변화에 따른 선량전달의 정확성을 검증하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법 : 실험에는 TrueBeam STxTM(Varian Medical Systems, Palo Alto, CA)치료기를 사용하였다. 인체모형등가팬텀(Rando Phantom, Alderson Resarch Laboratories Inc. Stamford. CT, USA)의 전산화단층영상에 전산화치료계획시스템(Eclipse 10.0, Varian, USA)을 이용하여 10 MV FFF(Flatenning Filter Free), 선량률 1200 MU/min으로 1500 cGy/fx(Case1, 2, 3)과 220 cGy/fx(Case4, 5, 6)의 치료계획을 수립하였다. $QUASAR^{TM}$ Respiratory Motion Phantom(Modus Medical Devices Inc)을 이용하여 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5 sec의 일정한 호흡주기와 평균호흡주기가 2.2, 3.5 sec인 환자의 호흡주기를 재현하였고 위상모드 30~70% 구간에서 방사선이 조사되도록 설정하였다. 각각의 호흡 조건에서 2차원 이온전리함 배열 검출기(I'mRT Matrixx, IBA Dosimetry, Germany)와 MultiCube Phantom(IBA Dosimetry, Germany)을 이용하여 측정하였고 세기변조 방사선치료 분석 프로그램(OmniPro I'mRT, IBA Dosimetry, Germany)을 이용하여 Gamma pass rate(3 mm, 3%)을 비교하였다. 결 과 : Case 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6의 Gamma pass rate은 일정한 호흡주기 1.5 sec에서 100.0, 97.6, 98.1, 96.3, 93.0, 94.8%, 2.5 sec에서 98.8, 99.5, 97.5, 99.5, 98.3, 99.6%, 3.5 sec에서 99.6, 96.6, 97.5, 99.2, 97.8, 99.1%, 4.5 sec에서 99.4, 96.3, 97.2, 99.0, 98.0, 99.3%의 결과를 보였다. 환자의 호흡을 재현한 경우 평균 호흡주기 2.2 sec에서는 97.7, 95.4, 96.2, 98.9, 96.2, 98.4%, 3.5 sec에서는 97.3, 97.5, 96.8, 100.0, 99.3 99.8%의 결과를 보였다. 결 론 : 2.5 sec이상의 일정한 호흡주기와 환자의 호흡을 재현한 실험에서 Gamma pass rate 95%이상의 임상적으로 신뢰할 만한 결과를 보였다. 일정한 호흡주기 1.5 sec의 Case 5, 6 에서 93.0, 94.8%의 결과를 보였으나 100명의 환자 호흡주기 분석 결과 1.5 sec의 호흡을 지속했던 경우는 없었던 점으로 보아 대부분의 호흡조건에서 정확한 선량전달이 가능함을 확인 하였다. 다만 극히 짧은 호흡주기로 인한 오차발생 가능성을 배제할 수 없기 때문에 치료전 선량전달 정확성 검증이 선행되어야 하며 모의치료시 환자 교육으로 안정된 호흡을 유지하고 정확한 모니터링을 통해 치료중 환자 호흡변화에 대처한다면 더욱 안정적이고 정확한 치료가 이루어질 것으로 사료된다.
