본 연구는 Thoracic cage Rando Phantom을 이용하여 가슴우리 구성하는 뼈중에서 복장의 선예한 영상을 얻고자 영상의 검사방법을 연구하였다. 엑스선관 초점에서 팬톰거리는 80Cm에서 엑스선관 각도에는 수직으로 팬톰의 자세는 우측 및 좌측의 후전사방향과 우측 및 좌측 전후 사방향 자세로 20°, 25°, 30° 변경하여 검사하였다. 획득한 영상을 방사선사가 주관적으로 영상평가 하였으며, 평가 데이터를 SPSS ver. 3.0으로 분석하였다. ImageJ Program을 이용하여 신호대잡음비(SNR)를 계산하였다. 그 결과 Cronbach Alpha 값이 0.789로 유의하게 높았다. 신호대잡음비(SNR)의 결과는 갈비과 정확한 복장뼈의 영상을 얻고자 할 때는 엎드린 자세에서는 검사 시 우측 후전사방향 20°에서 6.038으로 높았으며 바로누운자세에서는 좌측 전후사 방향 25° 검사 시 에서 7.860으로 높았다. 결론으로 복장뼈의 선예한 영상을 얻고자 엑스선 촬영기법으로 엎드려서 촬영할 경우에는 환자자세를 우측후전사방향 20°에서 또한 바로누운자세에서 촬영 할 경우에는 좌측전후사방향 25°에서 촬영기법을 이용한다면 선예한 영상을 얻을 수 있으리라 사료된다.

A diaphragm is a musculotendinous partition that separates abdominal and thoracic organs and assists in ventilation. Three dogs were presented after being hit by a car, and one dog was presented with the history of respiratory problems including intermittent dyspnea and coughing. Survey thoracic radiography, positive contrast celiography and sonography revealed traumatic diaphragmatic hernia in three dogs and congenital peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia in one dog. In three dogs including a dog with congenital peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia, herniorrhaphy was performed. Among the three dogs underwent surgery, two dogs with traumatic diaphragmatic hernia recovered uneventfully. However the dog with congenital peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia died from pulmonary edema at 2 days after surgery. Positive-contrast ceilography and ultrasonography provides to investigate the integrity of the diaphragm. Chronic diaphragmatic hernia and concurrent injuries are considered as prognostic factors.

Enucleation of a 9-year-old, spayed female Pekingese's right eye was scheduled because of recurrent eyeball rupture caused by chronic corneal ulcer and descemetocele. Scoliosis of the thoracic vertebra was observed on thoracic radiography. Complete blood count, electrolytes, serum chemistry profiles were within normal ranges except of alkaline phosphatase, which was markedly improved, compared with that of five months ago. Severe respiratory sinus arrhythmia was observed before induction of anesthesia, it disappeared after induction. Retrobulbar block was performed with 0.5% bupivacaine, 2% lidocaine, 0.1% epinephrine combination (4 : 1 : 0.2 ratio of volume) before start of surgery. After retrobulbar block, heart rate decreased from 110 to 76 beats/min and sinus arrhythmia recurred. It was considered as oculocardiac reflex caused by increase of intraorbital pressure from retrobulbar block, atropine (0.025 mg/kg, IV) was administered and intermittent positive pressure ventilation was started. Three minutes after atropine administration, abnormal waveform of the electrocardiograph was appeared, it suspected as ventricular or supraventricular tachycardia, so lidocaine (2 mg/kg, IV) was administered. Then, heart rate was maintained around 130 beats/min, and the surgery was finished without the other problems. Although, retrobulbar block is performed to provide analgesia and to prevent oculocardiac reflex in ophthalmic surgery, occasionally it could induce oculocardiac reflex by infiltrated volume.

최근 의료기관에서의 진단방사선검사 빈도는 2011년 2억 2천만건, 연간 일인당 피폭선량은 1.4 mSv로 2007년 대비 각 51%, 35% 증가하였다. 여기서 흉부촬영건수는 일반촬영 중 가장 높은 빈도인 27.59%로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 흉부 방사선 촬영 시 영상판독에 불필요한 신체부위를 차폐하여 피폭선량을 최소화 시키는 차폐기구를 개발하고, 그 유용성 평가를 위해 국제 표준 소아(10세) 팬텀과 유리선량계를 사용하여 기구 사용 전, 후의 입사표면선량(entrance surface dose; ESD)과 장기의 흡수선량 차를 측정하였다. 또한 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션 기반 프로그램(PCXMC 2.0.1)을 이용하여 유효선량을 산출하였고 암발생의 생애귀속위험도(lifetime attributable risk of cancer incidence; LAR)를 비교하여 그 감소율을 간접적으로 평가하였다. 방어기구를 사용할 때, 입사표면선량(감소율)은 비강 $0.55{\mu}Sv$ (74.06%), 갑상선 $1.43{\mu}Sv$ (95.15%), 식도 $6.35{\mu}Sv$ (78.42%)로 평균 86.36% 감소되었고, 심부선량(감소율)은 경추 $1.23{\mu}Sv$ (89.73%), 침샘 $0.5{\mu}Sv$ (92.31%), 식도 $3.85{\mu}Sv$ (59.39%), 갑상선 $2.02{\mu}Sv$ (73.53%) 흉추 $5.68{\mu}Sv$ (54.01%) 로 평균 72.30%로 감소되어 차폐기구의 유용성을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 유효선량은 착용 전 $8.33{\mu}Sv$에서 착용 후 $7.35{\mu}Sv$로 11.76% 감소하였고, LAR 평가에서는 갑상선 암은 10세 소아 백만 명당 남아 0.14명(95.12%), 여아 0.77명(95.16%), 모든 암은 남아 0.14명(11.70%), 여아 0.25명(11.70%)의 감소(감소율)를 확인할 수 있었다. 진단방사선검사는 질병과 치료 등 건강을 위해 꼭 필요한 검사이지만, 가능한 진단에 불필요한 부위에 이러한 차폐기구를 적극적으로 사용하여 ALARA 개념에 입각한 의료방사선 최적화를 도모해야 할 것이다.

An atrial septal defect (ASD) is congenital heart disease with a communication between the atria, which allows blood to shoot from the atrium with pressure. A 3-month-old female Miniature Schunauzer was referred to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital of Konkuk University for the evaluation of systolic heart murmur. At presentation, the mucous membrane was cyanotic. On physical examination, an ejection-type systolic murmur was auscultated at the pulmonic area. In addition, thoracic radiography showed enlargement of main pulmonary artery and right atrial/ventricular enlargement. Echocardiography revealed dilated right atrium and atrial septal defect. However, mitral and tricuspid valve were still intact and well tolerating. The presence of an ASD was confirmed by identifying flow across the defect with color Doppler imaging. Doppler echocardiography provides a means of non-invasive documentation and quantification of ASD. Complete blood count and serum chemistry were not remarkable. Although large defect was confirmed between the two atrium, the patient did not show any obvious clinical signs of heart failure at this time.

An 8-year-old female, German Shepherd dog was presented with history of dyspnea and seizure. One Year Previously a lumpectomy had been performed for surgical resection of mammary mass. In serum chemistry, severe hypoglycemia and elevation of aspartate aminitransferase and creatine kinase were shown. In thoracic radiography, there were variable sized nodules in the overall lung field. On computed tomography examination, the mass was shown in left longissimus lumborum muscle. Histopathological examination revealed adenocarcinoma derived from the mammary gland. Muscular metastasis of mammary gland tumor is uncommon. This is a rare observation and could easily be overlooked or misinterpreted.

Pulmonary artery aneurysm is Behcet`s disease is rare and can be fatal due to rupture. We experienced a case of pulmonary artery aneurysm in Behcet`s disease. The patient was 21 year old woman who was adimitted with three month history of dyspnea, fever and cough. On examination, she had aphthous ulcer in the mouth and erythema nodosum on the left popletial fossa and forearm, but didn`t have any lesion at eyes and genitalia. The latex fixation test for rheumatoid factor, VDRL test for syphillis, antinuclear antibody and LE cell test were all negatives. The third and fourth components of complement in the serum, serum immunoglobulin concentrations[IgG, IgM, IgA] were within normal range. The chest radiography revealed a 5x6cm sized radiopaque mass density in the left hilar region. Two months later, the mass was enlarged to 6x7cm. The IV-DSA showed a single aneurysm at the proximal part of left lower lobe artery with lingular segment artery and no distal perfusion by thombotic obstruction. The steroid therapy was done for a month, but symptoms not improved. We performed resection of lingular segment and lower lobe including the aneurysm. The microscopic findings of the operative specimen were intimal hyperplasia and fragmentation of the internal elastic fibers. She was improved without remarkable event, except infection of the operative wound.

저자들은 흉막 아스페르길루스증을 치험하였다. 50세 여자가 2주 동안의 권태감, 식욕부진, 객담을 동반한 기침 및 우측 홉막성 흉통을 주소로 내원하였다. 과거력상 10여년전 폐결핵으로 약물치료를 받은 적이 있었 다. 일반 흉부 사진상 폐우상엽에 공동을 동반한 농기흉을 보였으며,흉부 전산화 단층촬영상 우측 폐에 분 획된 농기흉 및 기관지 늑막루 소견을 보이는 공동이 관찰되었다. 폐 박피술과 부분절제,그리고 흉막절제술 을 시행하였으며 술후 경과는 만족스러웠다. 흉막 아스페르길루스증은 매우 드물고 잘 치유되지 않는 질병 이나 전신적 항진균제제 투여 및 수술적 치료로 별다른 합병증 없이 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있었으나 재발의 가능성 때문에 계속 추적 관찰 중이다.
