목적 : 융합 SPECT/CT가 기존 SPECT에 비해 병소의 해부학적 위치를 정확히 판단할 수 있는지 정성 평가하고, CT 감쇠 보정이 SPECT 영상에 미치는 효과를 알아보아 SPECT/CT의 유용성을 제시하고자 한다. 실험재료 및 방법 : 1. 융합 영상의 평가 : 2008년 1월(月)부터 8월(月)까지 Precedence 16 혹은 Symbia T2에서 $^{131}I$-MIBG, Bone, $^{111}In$-Octreotide, Meckel 게실, Parathyroid MIBI 등을 SPECT/CT 시행한 환자를 대상으로 하였고, SPECT/CT영상을 융합한 것과 하지 않은 것을 비교하여 정성 평가하였다. 2. 감쇠보정의 평가 : Symbia T2로 2008년 6월에서 8월까지 $^{201}Tl$ 심근 검사를 한 환자 38명을 대상으로 Cedars-Sinai의 QPS를 이용하여 산출하였다. Ant, Inf, Lat, Septum, Apex로 5개부분으로 분류하고, 각 부분에 대한 관류의 상태를 백분율로 산출했다. CT AC와 Non AC를 평균${\pm}$표준편차로 각 부분에 대한 관류 상태를 비교하고 차이를 분석하였다. 결과 : 1. 융합 영상의 평가 : 에너지가 높은 $^{131}I$ SPECT의 경우 병소와 주위 조직 간의 섭취율 차이로 인해 (주위 조직이 saturation 됨) 병소의 위치 파악이 어려웠으나 CT로 융합한 결과 해부학적 위치를 정확히 평가할 수 있었다. 또한 멕켈게실이나 $^{111}In$과 같이 장이나 장기쪽에 질환을 찾는 경우에는 그 우수성이 더욱 뛰어 났다. Bone SPECT/CT는 척추간의 구별을 확실히 할 수 있어 임상의가 정확한 결과를 제시하는데 도움을 준다. 2. 감쇠 보정의 평가 : 감쇠 보정 전후의 관류 백분율의 차이가 Ant, Lat에서는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었으나(p>0.05), Inferior, Apex, Septum에서는 유의한 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 차이를 보이는 값 중 Inferior Wall에서 CT AC perfusion : $76.84{\pm}6.52%$, Non AC perfusion : $68.58{\pm}7.55%$로 CT 보정에 의한 차이가 $8.26{\pm}4.95%$로 가장 크게 측정되었다(t=10.29, p<0.01). 결론 : SPECT에 CT가 부착되면서 병변의 기능적 활성도를 나타내는 분자학적 영상은 물론 병변의 해부학적 위치 정보를 보다 정확하게 확인할 수 있게 되었다. 이것은 비정상적 부위를 찾아내는 것에 그치지 않고 복잡한 인체 부위에서 정상군과 비정상군을 분리하는데 많은 도움을 주게 되었다. 따라서 임상의는 하나의 검사 영상으로 진단과 치료계획을 동시에 시행할 수 있을 것이다. 또한 감쇠가 잘 되는 흉곽 부위 안에 있는 심근 검사에는, CT로 보다 정확한 감쇠 보정을 할 수 있기 때문에 SPECT 검사 시 관심부위의 관류 상태를 더욱 신뢰할 수 있어 치료 예후의 정당성을 입증할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In this study we evaluated that flow rate changes affect the (time of flight) TOF image and contrast-enhanced (CE) in a three-dimensional TOF angiography. We used a 3.0T MR System, a nonpulsatile flow rate model. Saline was used as a fluid injected at a flow rate of 11.4 cm/sec by auto injector. The fluid signal strength, phantom body signal strength and background signal strength were measured at 1, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25-th cross-section in the experienced images and then they were used to determine signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio. The inlet, middle and outlet length were measured using coronal images obtained through the maximum intensity projection method. As a result, the length of inner cavity was 2.66 mm with no difference among the inlet, middle and outlet length. We also could know that the magnification rate is 49-55.6% in inlet part, 49-59% in middle part and 49-59% in outlet part, and so the image is generally larger than in the actual measurement. Signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio were negatively correlated with the fluid velocity and so we could see that signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio are reduced by faster fluid velocity. Signal-to-noise ratio was 42.2-52.5 in 5-25th section and contrast-to-noise ratio was from 34.0-46.1 also not different, but there was a difference in the 1st section. The smallest 3D TOF MRA measure was $2.51{\pm}0.12mm$ with a flow velocity of 40 cm/s. Consequently, 3D TOF MRA tests show that the faster fluid velocity decreases the signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio, and basically it can be determined that 3D TOF MRA and 3D CE MRA are displayed larger than in the actual measurement.

A thin section of the methanogenic archaebacterium, Methanoplanus limicola, shows that the surface glycoprotein array (S-layer) is separated from plasma membrane by a distinct inter-space, approximately 4.0-6.0nm wide. We report our structural study of the S-layer by electron crystallographic techniques. Image analysis and thin sections of the S-layer treated with and without triton disclosed that retention of the single layer crystal requires the presence of detergent to avoid hydrophobic bonding.

본 연구에서는 수소 함유량이 높아 중성자 차폐에 유리한 합성수지를 대상으로 중성자 차폐용 골재로서의 적용성 검토를 수행하였다. 사용된 합성수지는 고밀도 폴리에틸렌(HDPE), 폴리프로필렌(PP), 초고분자량 폴리에틸렌(UPE)으로 잔골재의 20%, 40%, 60%의 부피에 해당하는 양을 무게로 환산하여 배합하였다. 실험은 모르타르의 물리적 특성을 파악할 수 있는 플로우 테스트, 인장 및 압축강도 시험을 수행하였으며, 시험체 내부의 미세구조를 분석하기 위해 파단면의 이미지 분석, SEM 및 X-ray CT 촬영을 실시하였다. 합성수지를 혼입한 모르타르의 플로우의 값은 HDPE 및 PP는 증가하였지만 UPE의 경우 감소하였다. 반면 인장 및 압축강도의 경우 종류에 상관없이 전반적으로 강도가 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 이미지 분석 결과, HDPE 및 PP를 혼입한 모르타르의 강도는 혼입량에 관계없이 파단면에서의 합성수지 비율에 영향을 받았으며, 모르타르 내의 시멘트 매트릭스와의 단락 및 재료의 불균등한 분포가 강도 저하에 영향을 미친 것으로 추정된다. 반면, 미분말 상태인 UPE는 혼입량이 증가함에 따라 내부 공극이 증가하였으며, 이러한 특징은 일정량 이하에서는 강도 저하가 미미하였으나 일정한 혼입률 이상, 특히 본 실험에서는 치환율이 60% 이상에서 급격한 강도 저하를 나타냈다.

Simultaneous CH and OH planar laser induced fluorescence(PLIF) and stereoscopic particle image velocimetry(PIV) measurements have been developed to investigate the local flame structure of turbulent premixed flames. The developed simultaneous two radical concentrations and three component velocity measurements on a two-dimensional plane was applied for relatively high Renolds number turbulent premixed flames in a swirl stabilized combustor. All measurements were conducted for methane-air premixed flames in the corrugated flamelets regime. Strong three-dimensional fluctuation implies that misunderstanding of the flame/turbulent interactions would be caused by the analysis of two-component velocity distribution in a cross section. Furthermore, comparisons of CH-OH PLIF and three-component velocity field show that the burned gases not always have high-speed velocity in relatively high Renolds number turbulent premixed flame.

This study is to present more effective starting skills through analysis of kinematic characteristics of starting motions in 300m Time Trials of Inline Skating. To achieve this goal, 6 athletes, 3 in the national team and 3 in business teams were chosen and their starting motions were examined with three-dimensional image analyses. The results of analyses in regard of positions and speed of the bodily center and angles, angular velocity, and linear velocity of articulations of lower limbs by sections of starting motions are as follows: In case of the central position, though it is effective to reduce the air resistance by lowering the upper part of the body maximumly, it is reasonable to accelerate by raising the upper part of the body to some degree for the running posture at the lower speed in the starting section. In the starting section, it is efficient to minimize the period of time in touching the ground. for this, it is necessary to train for taking motions without slippage while touching the ground. While 3 athletes in business teams kicked the ground as running right after the starting, the others in the national team slid on the ground. As the number of steps increased, the movable speed changed quickly. Thus the movable speed of athletes in the national team indicated big differences in two to three steps. If these factors are well supported, the push-away starting method might be better than the running starting method in terms of improvement of records.

The Reynolds number dependence of the flame front was clearly captured by the simultaneous CH-OH PLIF and stereoscopic PIV measurements.

For the analysis of Acoustic Target Strength(TS) that indicates the scattered acoustic intensity from the underwater vehicles, an analysis program that is applicable to scatterers insonified by spherical wave source in near field is developed. In this program, the Physical Optics(PO) method is embedded as a base component. To increase the accuracy of the program, multiple bounce effects based on Geometrical Optics(GO) method are applied. To implement multiple bounce effects, GO method is used together with PO method. In detail, GO method has a concern in the evaluation of the effective area, and PO method is involved in the calculation of Acoustic Target Strength for the final effective area that is evaluated by GO method. For the embodiment of near field spherical wave source originated multiple bounce effects, image source concept is implemented additively to the existing multiple bounce algorithm which assumes plane wave insonification. Various types of models are tested to evaluate the reliability of the developed program and finally, a submarine is analyzed as an arbitrary scatterer.

In this study, we presented a method for non-square Differential LBP operation that can well describe the micro pattern in the horizontal and vertical component. We proposed a way to represent a LBP operation with various direction components as well as the diagonal component. In order to verify the validity of the proposed operation, Differential LBP was investigated with respect to accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity for the classification of facial expression. In accuracy comparison proposed LBP operation obtains better results than Square LBP and LBP-CS operations. Also, Proposed Differential LBP gets better results than previous two methods in the sensitivity and specificity indicators 'Neutral', 'Happiness', 'Surprise', and 'Anger' and excellence Differential LBP was confirmed.
