목적 : 자궁경부 선암은 발생률이 적어 편평상피암에 비하여 아직 치료방법에 대한 연구가 미흡하다. 또한 지금까지 저선량률 강내치료가 많이 사용되어 고선량률 강내치료의 결과는 많이 보고되고있지 않다. 따라서 저자들은 자궁경부 선암환자에서 고선량률 강내치료와 저선량률 강내치료를 비교하여 고선량률 강내치료의 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 1971년 1월부터 1992년 12월까지 연세대학교 방사선종양학과에서 근치적 목적으로 치료된 106명의자궁경부 선암 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 저선량률 강내치료는 35명에서 시행되었고, 71명은 고선량률 강내치료가 시행되었다. 저선량률군에서는 병기 1기가 8명, 병기 2기가 18명, 병기 3기가 9명이었고 외부방사선치료는 10 MV X-ray를 이용하여 매일 2 Gy씩 총 40$\~$64 Gy (중앙값 48 Gy)가 조사되었다. 저선량률 강내치료는 radium 선원을 이용하여 Henshke applicator로 시행되었고 point A에 22$\~$59 Gy (중앙값 43 Gy)가 조사되었다. 고선량률군에서는 병기 1기가 16명, 병기 2기가 38명, 병기 3기가 17명 이었다. 외부방사선치료량은 40$\~$61 Gy (중앙값 45 Gy)이었고 분할선량은 1.8$\~$2.0 Gy이었다. 고선량률 강내치료는 Co-60 선원을 사용하여 RALS (remote afterloading system)로 분할선량 3 Gy를 주 3회 총 30$\~$57 Gy (중앙값 39 Gy)가 시행되었다. 결과 :저선량률군의 5년 생존률은 병기1, 2, 3기에서 각각 72.9, 61.9, 45.0$\%$이었고 고선량률군에서는 각각 87.1, 58.3, 41.2$\%$이었다(p>0.05). 자궁경부 선암에서 고선량률군과 저선량률군간의 5년 생존률에는 차이가 혀었다. 또한 양군간에 유의한 예후인자는 없었다. 고선량률군의 만성 합병증률은 26.8$\%$로 저선량률군의 11.4$\%$에 비하여 높았으나 대부분 grade 1의 경미한 정도이었고 통계학적인 차이가 없어 받아들일 만한 결과이었다. 결론 :자궁경부 선암 환자에서 고선량률 강내치료는 저선량률 강내치료에 비하여 5년 생존률과 치료실패율에서 차이를 보이지 않아 저선량률 강내치료를 대치할 수 있을 것으로 생각되나 병기 2기와 3기에서 만성 합병증이 높아 분할 선량에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

본 연구는 경산시 남녀 노인 225명(남자 113명, 여자 112명)을 대상으로 식습관과 영양소 섭취 실태 및 건강관련 요인에 관한 조사를 통하여 노년기의 바람직한 영양관리 방안을 제시하기 위한 기초자료를 마련하고자 실시하였다 조사대상자 남녀의 평균 연령은 각각 75.4세, 70.5세였으며 가족 수는 여자는 홀로 사는 비율($30.4\%$, 34명)이 남자($15\%$, 17명)보다 p<0.001 수준에서 유의적으로 월등히 높았다. 한달 용돈과 교육 정도는 남자가 여자보다도 많았으며 생활비는 아들과 며느리로부터 받는 경우는 남녀 각각 45.2, $61.6\%$로 가장 높은 비율을 보였다. 혼자 사는 여자와 저소득 계층 노인의 영양 부족과 불균형적인 영양소 섭취에 노출될 우려가 높으므로 이들에 대한 관리가 요구된다. 건강관련 요인에 관한 조사 결과로서 전체 조사대상자 중 $76.9\%$가 규칙적으로 운동을 하고 있으므로 남녀 모두 건강에 대한 관심도와 건강행태가 양호한 것으로 보여진다. 평균 음주율과 흡연율은 각각 $38.2,\;22.2\%$였으며 , 남자가 여자 보다 음주율과 흡연율이 더 높았다(p<0.001), 음주자의 평균 음주량은 소주 $1\~2$잔의 가벼운 음주자가 전체 $38.4\%$였으며 소주 1병 혹은 1병 이상의 고음주자 비율은 $20.9\%$이었다. 이때 p<0.001 수준에서 남자가 여자보다 유의적으로 높았다. 그러나 여성의 음주는 남성보다 체중과 BMI, 에너지와 지방 증가와 상관성을 갖고 있으므로 농촌 여자노인, 특히 혼자 사는 노인에 대한 음주교육이 필요하다. 조사대상자의 질환 상태는 전체 중 $84.9\%$가 한가지 이상의 질환을 가지고 있었으며 가장 많이 앓고 있는 질환은 신경통, 고혈압, 위장관 질환, 호흡기 질환, 심장질환, 당뇨병, 빈혈 등의 순으로 조사되었으며, 아직까지 활동하는 데에는 지장이 없었다. 신장과 체중은 남자는 $159.6\pm8.68cm$에 $60.6\pm8.93kg$, 여자는 $146.3\pm6.72cm$에 $54.8\pm6.84kg$이었으며, 체질량 지수(Body Mass Index, BMI)는 평균 $24.8\pm3.13$으로 남녀 각각 $23.7\pm2.80$과 $25.7\pm3.21$ 남녀간의 p<0.001 수준에서 유의적인 차이가 있었다. 허리와 엉덩이 둘레는 남자는 $86.3\pm19.9cm$와 $90.0\pm90.8cm$, 여자는 $84.2\pm12.4cm$와 $96.8\pm6.72cm$로 남녀간에 유의한 차이는 없었으나 WHR이 여자의 경우 0.8이상이 되어서 심혈관계 질환의 위험 범위에 속하는 수준이었다. 삼두근의 두겹 두께는 남녀 각각 $20.2\pm8.58cm,\;22.2\pm4.40mm$으로 남녀간에 유의한 차이는 없었다. 조사대상자의 식습관 상태는 전체 대상자의 $84.4\%$가 대부분이 하루 세끼 식사를 규칙적으로 하고 있었으며 식사속도는 허겁지겁 빨리 섭취하는 경우가 남자는 $31.0\%$, 여자는 $21.4\%$로 나타났고 이들을 제외한 나머지 사람들은 보통 속도 혹은 충분한 시간을 가지고 식사를 하였다. 평소 식사량은 조금 적게 혹은 적당하게 섭취하는 사람이 대부분이었으며 남자가 여자보다는 배부르게 먹는 경 향이 유의적으로 높았다(p<0.05). 식사는 혼자 하는 경우가 남자는 $20.4\%$인데 반하여 여자는 $52.7\%$였으며, 식사준비도 거의 혼자 하는 경우가 남자는 $17.7\%$, 여자는 $79.5\%$로 혼자 식사를 준비해서 혼자 먹는 비율이 여자가 월등히 높았다(p<0.001). 과식은 평균 $66.2\%$ 하지 않는다고 답하였으며 과식자들은 남자는 아침이나 점심에 하는 반면에 여자는 저녁에 하는 과식을 많이 하는 것으로 나타났다. 밤참 역시 $72.4\%$가 하지 않는다고 하였으며 남자가 여자보다 밤참을 하지 않는 비율이 높았다. 식습관은 여자가 남자에 비하여 좋지 못하였고 특히 독거노인의 비율이 높아서 영양섭취 상태가 다소 우려되었다. 영양소섭취 부족을 영양소별로 $75\%$ RDA 미만 섭취한 영양소로는 단백질, 칼슘, 철분, 비타민 $B_2$였으며, $100\%$ RDA 이상 섭취한 것으로는 인과 비타민 C로 나타났다. 또한 철분, 비타민 A, 비타민 $B_1$, 비타민 $B_2$, 나이아신 섭취량은 남자가 여자에 비해서 p<0.001 수준에서 유의 하게 높았으며 남자에 비해 여자 노인의 영양섭취가 불량하였다. 따라서 경산시 노인들의 전반적인 건강과 이와 관련된 운동, 활동, 음주, 흡연에 있어서 다른 지역과 다른 특이 한 문제점을 관찰하지 는 못했으며 독거 여자 노인의 비율이 높았으며 식습관과 영양소 섭취량 조사결과 남자보다는 여자가 식 습관이 다소 불량한 상태였고 영양소 섭취량은 한 두 가지를 제외한 나머지 영양소들이 권장량 수준에 미치지 못하고 있었다. 그러므로 핵가족화, 고령화, 독거노인 특히 여자 독거노인의 비율 증가라는 시대 흐름에 맞추어서 이들 노인의 전반적인 영양상태 개선과 나아가 질환 발생 예방효과와 더불어 국가 의료비 절감이 이루어질 수 있는 다양한 연구와 교육 프로그램 및 영양관리 대책이 필요하다고 본다.

농업환경지표가 OECD 회원국간의 농업환경 비교와 이를 통한 농업환경 개선과 농업정책 수립에 대한 권고의 수단으로만 작용을 하지만 이것이 향후 통상 무역과 연계될 것은 추측 가능한 사실이다. OECD 농업환경지표를 우리나라에 그대로 적용했을 때 얻어진 지표 값이 우리나라의 농업환경을 사실대로 반영하지 못한다면 우리가 받을 피해는 미래에도 작용할 것이므로 이에 대한 새로운 제안을 통해 우리나라에 적합한 지표를 설정해야 한다. OECD에 의해 제안된 농업용수 사용 강도 지표는 논이나 밭에서 이용되거나 배수 유출되는 물의 특성을 모두 반영한 방법이 아니므로 몬순 기후지대에 속하는 한국에 적당하지 않다. 특히, 여름철 집중호우시기에 년 강우량의 2/3가 내리는 강우 특성은 이를 담수해 저장하는 능력을 가진 농경지의 수자원 보유능과 기타의 농업적 특성을 고려한 계산방법으로 농업용수를 산정해야 한다. 논의 경우 강우가 내리거나 관개가 되었을 때 담수나 침투를 통해 물을 지하로 배수해 지하수를 형성하거나 지표의 배수로나 하천을 통해 강이나 저수지로 상당량의 물을 흘려보내 다시 이용할 수 있도록 해준다. 즉, 농업용수로 계산되어 있는 물의 상당량은 다른 농경지나 생활용수 또는 공업용수나 하천 유지용수로 다시 이용된다. 따라서, 물 사용강도에 이용되는 농업용수는 농경지에서 소모되지 않고 지하수로 흘러 들어가거나 하천으로 유입되는 배출수를 고려하여 계산하는 것이 합리적이다. 이렇게 계산하면 22.9%(2001년)로 OECD 계산방법으로 얻어진 47%보다 24.1%가 낮아진다. 합리적인 농업용수 스트레스 지표를 산출하기 위해서는 각 나라마다 다른 나라와 강을 공유하고 있는지의 여부와 농업을 위한 주 취수원이 무엇인지를 살펴보아 그 나라에 적합한 스트레스 지표를 산출하도록 유도하는 것이 바람직할 것이다. 그러나, 실제 물에 대한 스트레스는 강우량, 수계별 수자원 부존량, 사용가능량, 농업용수 총공급수량, 환경 유지용수를 위한 기준 갈수량 확보 가능성, 농업용수 관리현황 및 저수율 분석, 수계별 농업용수 사용 가능량 및 기상 등이 복잡하게 작용할 것이므로 이 모든 인자들을 포함한 지표를 만들기는 쉬운 일이 아니다. 따라서, 우리나라는 OECD의 스트레스 지표와는 달리 환경 위해성 판단이 필요 없고, 계산이 복잡하지 않으며 우리의 환경에 적합하도록 주 취수원인 농업용 저수지의 저수율로 농업용수 스트레스 지표를 산정 했다. 농업용수 사용 기술적 효율지표는 작물의 재배 생리특성 및 이용특성과 지역마다 차이가 나는 기후의 특성을 반영하지 않은 계산의 결과이다. 그러므로 이러한 특성들을 반영하는 기술적 물 이용효율 지표를 만들기 위해서는 각 지역 또는 나라마다 작물별로 기준이 되는 물 소요량을 산정한 후 그 소요량에 대한 공급된 양의 비율로 WUTE를 결정하는 것이 합리적이다. 지역별, 작물별 특성을 포함해야 하는 농업용수 사용 경제적 효율 지표는 소비된 물을 분모로 삼아 계산에 이용하는 대신에 농업용수 사용 기술적 효율에서 제안한 각 지역 또는 나라마다 작물별로 기준이 되는 물 소요량을 산정한 후 그 소요량에 대한 공급된 양의 비율을 계산식의 분모에 적용하고, 벼의 경우는 생산물의 가격 대신에 지하수가 되는 양과 하천수가 되는 양에 대한 경제적 평가에 더해 논에 많은 양의 물이 관개됨으로서 발생하는 수변 생태계에 의한 환경유지 기능과 온도와 습도가 높은 한국의 기후 특성에서 전체 에너지 밸런스를 유지하는데 기여하는 관개수의 가치에 대한 평가와 더불어 생산물의 가격을 포함하는 것이 합리적일 것이다.

본 연구에서 수행한 Model 시뮬레이션에 의한 열환경 분석 기법은 지역별로 다양한 기상여건 하에서 대상온실의 난방 및 냉방부하를 보다 합리적으로 예측할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 냉방이나 난방용 시스템의 결정을 비롯한 난방대책을 수립하고, 에너지 이용 전략의 수립이나 계절적인 작부계획 수립, 온실산업용 적지선정 등에 유익하게 활용될 수 있을 것이라 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 온실의 적극적인 환경조절 유형을 난방과 냉방의 두 가지로 대별하고, 난방 소요열량 산정을 비롯하여 야간의 보온 커튼효과, Heating Degree-Hour 산정 등 난방과 관련된 시뮬레이션은 동적 모형을 이용하여 시간별, 일별 및 월별로 검토하였으며, 환기를 비롯한 차광, 증발냉각시스템의 효과 분석은 정적모형을 이용하여 검토하였다. 특히 하절기 지하수와 같은 저온수를 직접 이용하거나 Heat Pump를 통하여 확보될 수 있는 저온수를 이용하여 온실의 피복면에 살수함으로서 확보할 수 있는 온실냉방효과를 검토하는 데는 1.2m$\times$2.4m 크기의 모형온실을 제작하여 기초실험을 수행함으로서 동절기의 수막시스템의 보온효과와 마찬가지로 하절기 냉방 효과를 거둘 수 있다는 가능성을 확인하였다. 본 연구에 활용된 온실의 수치 환경모형 중 난방관련 시뮬레이션용 동적 수치모형은 소기의 목적을 달성하는데 충분히 응용될 수 있는 이론모형이다. 이 이론모형이 범용성이 높은 것은 온실 내ㆍ외의 미기상 변화, 특히 난방이나 냉방이 본격적으로 요구되는 기간동안에 온도, 습도, 일사, 풍속 등의 미기상 인자들을 면밀하게 관찰하여 실측된 자료를 바탕으로 개발되었고, 다양한 자료에 의해 충분히 검정되었기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 경남 진주지역의 어느 특정 기간(1987년)의 시간별 기상자료를 중심으로 온실의 열적 환경변화에 대한 수치모형 시뮬레이션을 실시하였으며, 아직 수치모형에 의한 시뮬레이션이 불가능한 일부 냉방효과를 검토하는 데는 모형 실험을 실시하였으며, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 주간과 야간의 설정온도를 달리하고 다단계 변온조절방식으로 시뮬레이션을 행한 결과 난방 소요열량은 난방 설정온도에 따라 현저한 차이를 보였다. 특히 주간 설정온도에 비하여 야간 설정온도가 난방 소요열량에 예민하게 영향을 미치므로 야간의 설정온도 결정에 신중을 기해야 할 것으로 판단된다. 2. 기존의 Heating Degree-Hour 자료는 평균 외기온을 중심으로 임의의 설정온도에 대하여 산정된 값이므로 난방 소요열량에 대한 상대적인 비교수단은 되나 고려되는 기상인자의 제한과 설정온도의 임의성 때문에 실용성이 부족하다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제시된 것처럼 온실 주변의 제반 미기상 인자나 경계조건이 반영됨은 물론 작물의 생육상태 및 구체적인 설정온도까지도 고려하는 동적 수치모형으로 시시각각으로 예측된 실내기온을 중심으로 재배기간 동안의 난방열량을 적산함이 합리적이라 판단된다. 기존의 MDH 자료로 난방 설계를 할 경우에는 지나치게 과잉설계 될 가능성이 있다. 3. 산정된 난방 소요열량은 물론 커튼의 보온성능도 월별 기상여건에 따라 현저한 차이를 보이며, 시뮬레이션에 이용된 커튼의 경우 높은 보온효과를 보임으로서 년 평균 50% 이상의 난방 에너지를 절감할 수 있으며, 동절기 3-4개월의 집중 난방기에 에너지가 크게 절감됨을 발견할 수 있다. 4. 고온기 환기성능은 온실의 구조, 기상조건, 작물의 생육상태 등에 따라 다소의 차이가 있으나 환기율에 의해 크게 좌우되며, 시뮬레이션에 이용된 두 가지 농가보급형 온실 모두 환기율의 증가에 따른 실내기온의 강하 효과가 환기율이 1회/min 정도를 넘어서면서 급격히 둔화되는 현상을 보인다. 이는 기존에 권장되고 있는 적정 환기율인 1회/min 전후의 환기 시스템을 갖추는 것이 합리적임을 확인해 준다. 5. 작물이 성숙된 유리온실에서 외기의 상대습도가 50%인 쾌청한 주간동안 연속적으로 1회/min로 환기를 시킬 경우 실내기온 36.5$^{\circ}C$의 대조구에 비한 온도강하는 50% 차광만 했을 시 2.6$^{\circ}C$이고 효율 80%의 Pad ＆ Fan 시스템만 작동시 6.1$^{\circ}C$ 정도이며, 차광과 냉각시스템을 동시에 작동시는 약 8.6$^{\circ}C$로서 외기온보다 3.3$^{\circ}C$가 낮은 28$^{\circ}C$까지 실내온도를 낮출 수 있으나, 동일 조건하에서 외기의 상대습도가 80%로 높은 경우에는 Pad ＆ Fan시스템에 의한 온도강하가 2.4$^{\circ}C$에 불과하여 50% 차광하에서도 외기온 이하로 실내온도를 낮출 수 없음을 알 수 있다. 6. 하절기 3개월(6/1-8/31)동안 Pad ＆ Fan 시스템의 냉방효과($\Delta$T)는 설정된 작동 온도에 따라 다소 차이를 보일 것으로 예상되나 본 시뮬레이션에서 설정한 시스템의 작동 온도 27$^{\circ}C$에서 상대습도와의 상관관계는 대략 다음과 같았다: $\Delta$T= -0.077RH＋7.7 7. 전형적인 하절기 주간기상 하에서 경시적 냉방효과를 분석한 결과 환기만으로는 실내기온을 외기온 보다 5$^{\circ}C$ 높게 유지하는 정도가 고작이고, 차광이나 증발식 냉방시스템 만으로는 작물이 성숙한 단계에서조차도 외기온 이하로 떨어뜨리기가 어려우나 차광과 아울러 증발식 냉방을 병행할 경우에는 작물상태에 따라 다소 차이는 있지만 실내기온을 외기온보다 2.0-2.3$^{\circ}C$ 낮게 유지할 수 있음을 발견할 수 있다. 8. 일사가 차단된 27.5-28.5$^{\circ}C$의 외기온하에서 6.5-8.5$^{\circ}C$의 냉수를 온실 바닥면적 1$m^2$당 1.3 liter/min의 유량으로 온실표면에 살수했을 때 실내기온을 외기온보다 1$0^{\circ}C$ 낮은 16.5-18.$0^{\circ}C$ 정도로 낮출 수 있었다. 앞으로 살수 수온(T$_{w}$ )이나 외기온(T$_{o}$ ) 뿐만아니라 살수율(Q)에 따라 온실기온 (T$_{g}$ )에 미치는 상관 관계 T$_{g}$ = f(T$_{w}$ , Q, T$_{o}$ )를 구명하여 지하수 자체 또는 Heat Pump를 이용한 지하수온 이하의 냉수로 온실냉방의 가능성을 구명하는 것이 앞으로의 과제이다.

목적 : 국한성 병기 소세포폐암으로 복합 화학요법과 방사선치료를 받은 환자들에서 통상적 방사선치료와 다분할 방사선치료 간의 종양 관해율, 생존율, 재발율 및 부작용에 대해 비교분석하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 1989년 11월부터 1996년 12월까지 충남대학교 병원 치료방사선과에서 국한성병기 소세포폐암으로 치료받았던 78명 환자 중 고식적 방사선치료 및 재발성 병변으로 치료받았던 10명을 제외한 68명을 대상으로 후향성 분석을 하였다. 대상환자 중 통상적 방사선치료군(A군)은 26명, 다분할 방사선치료군 (B군)은 42명 이었다. 전체 환자의 연령, 성별 및 ECOG 활동지수는 각각 32-75세 (중앙값 58세), 남자 58명 여자 10명, ECOG 0-1이 58명 2 이상이 10명 이었으며 두군 간에 유사한 분포를 보였다. 방사선치료로서 A군은 총 조사선량 5040-6940 cGy (중앙값 5040 cGy), 180 cGy/fx 로 치료하였고 B군은 총 조사선량 4320-5100 cGy (중앙값 4560 cGy)으로 29명 (69$\%$)은 120 cGy/fx 로, 13명 (31$\%$)은 150 cGy/fx 로 1일 2회 조사하였다. 화학요법은 전체 68명 중 65명에서 VPP (cisplatin 60 mg/$m^2$, etoposide 100 mg/$m^2$) 요법과 CAV (cytoxan 1000 mg/$m^2$, adriamycin 40 mg/$m^2$, vincristine 1 mg/$m^2$) 요법을 교대로 시행하였으며, 화학요법 횟수는 A군 3-10회 (중앙값 6회), B군은 1-11회 (중앙값 6회) 시행하였다. 화학요법 시기는 A군에서 23명이 연속 화학요법을, B군에서는 39명이 동시 화학요법을 시행하였다. 예방적 전뇌조사는 두군 모두에서 완전관해 후 시행하였는데 A군 8명, B군 16명에서 조사선량 2500 cGy/10fx 로 조사하였다. 추적기간은 2-99개월 (중앙값 14개월)였다. 결과 : 종양 관해는 완전관해율, 부분관해율이 각각 A군 35$\%$ (9/26), 54$\%$ (14/26), B군 43$\%$ (18/42), 55$\%$ (23/42)(p=0.119) 였다. 중앙생존기간 및 2년 생존율은 전체환자에서 15개월, 26.8$\%$였고, A군 17개월, 26.9$\%$, B군 15개월, 28$\%$ 0=0.51)였다. 전체환자 중 완전관해 및 부분관해 환자의 2년 생존율은 각각, 35$\%$ 와 24.2$\%$ (p=0.05)였다. 실패양상으로 두 군간에 국소재발 및 원격전이의 통계적인 차이는 없었다 (p=0.125, 0.335). 방사선치료중 발생한 급성합병증으로 RTOG criteria상 중등도 이상의 식도염 및 백혈구 감소가 B 군에서 더 높게 나타났다 (p=0.028, 0.003). 결론 : 국한성 병기 소세포폐암의 복합 화학요법과 방사선치료시 종양의 부분관해 이상의 반응율이 연속화학요법을 받은 통상적 방사선 치료군과 동시화학요법을 받은 다분할 방사선 치료군 모두에서 높게 나타났다. 그러나 두 군간의 생존율에는 통계적인 차이를 보이지 않았다. 급성합병증으로서 식도염과 백혈구 감소가 동시화학요법을 받은 다분할 방사선치료군에서 더 높게났지만, 국한성 병기 소세포폐암에서 동시화학요법과 다분할 방사선치료가 적절한 치료의 한 방법이 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 그러나 국한성 병기 소세포폐암에서 다분할 방사선치료의 장점을 밝히기 위하여 좀더 많은 대상환자와 추적관찰이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

본연구는 1972년에 수원에서 그리고 1973년에는 다시 수원, 매리 및 이리 광주의 3개 지역에서 경질 소맥인 NB 68513, Caprock와 중간질 소맥인 영광, 연질 소맥인 수계 169호를 공시하여 시비량 및 재배시기를 각각 3수준의 처리를 두어 등숙 및 품질의 변화에 관한 실험을 수행하였다. 한편 1973년 및 1974년에는 수원에서 중간질 소맥인 영광과 경질 소맥인 NB 68513을 공시하고 온실에서 온도, 습도 및 일사량을 달리하여 이들이 소맥의 등숙과 품질에 미치는 영향을 추구하였으며, 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 소맥립의 등숙: 1) 1립중의 변이폭은 대립종이 소립종에 비하여 크고, 립중별 소맥립의 분포는 대립종이 평균치에 가까이 분포된 율이 높았고, 소립종은 넓은 분산을 보였다. 2) 립중의 증가에 미치는 립장, 립후 및 립폭의 영향의 정도는 립장보다 립후와 립폭이 컸다. 3) 등숙 시기별 립중의 변화에 있어서 영광은 개화후 14일부터 35일까지, NB 68513은 14일부터 28일까지에 급증하였고, 대립종인 영광은 소립종인 NB68513에 비하여 등숙기간이 길었으며 배란비율도 완만한 증가를 보였다. 4) 1000립중은 대체로 저온에서보다 고온에서, 다습보다 건조한 공중습도 조건에서 가벼웠고, 저온이나 고온에서라도 다습 조건하에서는 무거운 경향을 보였다. 또한 서광의 영향은 저온에서보다 고온에서 컸으며, 다습한 경우에는 일정한 경향이 없었다. 5) 등숙기간중 온도, 습도 및 서광의 영향은 소립종인 NB 68513보다 대립종인 영광에서 컸으며, 1000립중의 증감과 등숙일수 간에는 높은 정의 상관이 있었다. 6) 1000립중과 1$\ell$중은 시비량의 증가에 따라 무거워졌으나, 보비와 다비구간에는 그 증가율이 비교적 낮았고, 조숙재배는 만파재배보다 무거웠으며, 이와 같은 경향은 수원에서 현저하였고 광주 및 이리에서는 미미하였다. 2. 제분성: 7) 동일 품종에서 1000립중이 무겁게 나타난 저온다습 조건 및 조숙재배가 고온, 건조, 조건 및 만파재배에 비하여 제분율이 높았고, 지역간 차이는 일정한 경향이 없었다. 8) 제분율은 영광이 가장 높고 수계 169호가 가장 낮았으며, 경질 소립종인 Caprock, NB 68513은 연질 소립종인 수계 169호보다 높았다. 9) 회분 함량은 지역, 시비량 및 재배시기에 따른 차이는 작았고, 품종간 차이는 컸으며, NB 68513 및 Caprock는 영광 및 수계 169호보다 현저히 높았다. 3. 단백질 함량: 10) 단백질 함량은 1000립중이 가벼웠든 고온, 건조 및 서광 조건에서 저온, 다습 조건에서보다 높았으며, 이러한 경향은 영광에서 현저하고 NB 68513에서 적었다. 11) 종질의 단백질 함량은 개화후 1~2주일 사이에 높았는데, 이는 배란에 대한 배와 종피의 비율이 크기 때문이었고, 등숙이 진전됨에 따라 배, 종피의 영향은 감소되며, 달서 단백질 함량도 감소되었으나 개화후 3~4주부터는 다시 단백질함량이 증가되어 개화후 7주에 최대에 달하였다. 등숙 중기(개화후 3~4주) 이후의 단백질함량 증가는 대체로 1000립중의 증가와 비슷하였으나, 성숙된 종실의 단백질 함량의 증감은 등숙기간의 장단의 영향보다는 역일상에 따른 기상적 환경, 특히 기온에 의한 영향을 많이 받은 것으로 보였다. 12) 소맥분의 단백질 함량은 종실의 단백질 함량의 변화와 같아서 이 양자간에는 높은 정의 상관이 있었다. 13) 단백질 함량은 각 품종 모두 시비량이 증가할수록, 또 재배시기가 늦어질수록 증가하는 경향이었고, 수원에서는 광주, 이리에서보다 그 경향이 현저하였다. 14) 품종별로 존 단백질 함량은 영광, NB 68513 및 Caprock은 비슷하였으며 비교적 높았고, 수계 169호는 낮았는데 이 품종은 재배법에 따른 단백질 함량의 변이도 적었다. 15) 단위 면적당 단백질 수량은 시비량이 많을수록, 재배시기가 빠를수록 높은 경향이었고, 조숙재배에서는 질소질 비료의 이용율이 높았으며, 영광은 시비량 증가에 따른 단백질 수량 증가가 비교적 컸다. 4. 분의 물리화학적 특성: 16) Sedimentation value는 저온, 다습, 소비 조건에서보다 고온, 건조, 다비 조건에서 컸고, NB 68513 및 Caprock는 그 경향이 현저하였는데 영광 및 수계 169호는 뚜렷하지 않았었고, 광주, 이리보다는 수원에서 Sedimentation value의 변이가 컸다. Sedimentation value의 증감은 단백질 함량의 증감과 관계가 깊으나, 다습조건에서는 Sedimentation value가 감소되었다. 한편 Sedimentation value는 단백질 함량의 증가에 따라 증가되었으며, 성숙기에 최대에 달하였다. 17) Pelshenke value는 재배방법 및 지역 간의 차이가 Sedimentation value의 경우와 대체로 같은 경향을 보였다. 18) Mixing time은 NB 68513이 4~6분, Caprock가 5~7분 소요되었으며, 영광 및 수계 169호는 NB 68513 및 Caprock보다 지역 및 재배법에 따른 변이가 컸다. Mixing height와 Mixing area는 NB 68513 및 Caprock에서 컸고 영광 및 수계 169호에서는 작았으며, 재배방법에 따른 변이는 일정한 경향이 없었고, 지역에 따른 차이는 이리, 광주에서 낮고 수원에서 높았다. 19) NB 68513 및 Caprock의 품질에 있어서 제분성은 고온, 건조 조건, 또는 다비, 만파재배에서 떨어졌으나 분의 물리화학적 특성은 양호하여 제빵 적성이 좋고, 조숙재배는 물리화학적 특성이 다소 불량하였으나 제분성이 높고 단위 면적당 단백질 수량인 높은 경향이었다. 지역간에서 보면 이리, 광주보다는 수원이 NB 68513 및 Caprock의 재배에 적합한 것으로 판단되었다. 5. 분의 물리화학적 특성의 상호관계: 20) 제분율 및 회분함량과 분의 물리화학적 특성과는 직접적인 상관이 없었으며, 1000립중이 가벼운 것이 단백질 함량이 높았고 분의 물리화학적 특성도 양호하였다. 21) NB 68513 및 Caprock에 있어서 단백질 함량과 Sedimentation value, Pelshenke value 및 mixing height와는 정의 상관이 있었으며, 단백질 함량이 높으면 분의 Gluten strength도 강하고 따라서 제빵 적성도 양호하였다. 영광 및 수계 169호에 있어서는 단백질 함량과 Sedimentation value와는 정의 상관이 있으나 Pelshenke value와 Mixing height와는 상관이 없었다. 따라서 단백질 함량 증가에 따라 Gluten strength 양자와 연결됨이 크고, Pelshenke value와 Mixogram은 Gluten strength와 연관됨으로 경질과 연질의 품종 구분에는 Mixogram, Pelshenke value의 검정이 유리하고, Sedimentation valuer검정은 같은 품종내에서 재배법 차이에 따른 품질 평가에 알맞은 것으로 보았다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.
