Electric arc furnace oxidizing slag from massively produced steel slag has been used in road bases and subbases, hot mix asphalt, and landfill. Electric arc furnace oxidizing slag contains iron (15%~30%) and has a high density of 3.0~3.7 ton/m3. Depending on the type and amount of concrete aggregates, the radiation-shielding characteristics can vary. Therefore, aggregates of electric arc furnace oxidizing slag can be considered for the production of radiation-shielding concrete. The experimental design of this study is experiments on Compressive strength experiments, X-ray irradiation experiments, and experiments related to the unit volume weight were carried out on hardened concrete. This experiment compared the performance evaluation of radiation shielding of concrete using electric arc furnace oxidizing slag.

This study investigated the reduction of microbial population and sensory properties in red pepper powders irradiated by gamma ray, electron beam, and X-ray. Populations of total aerobic bacteria and yeast & molds in red pepper powders were decreased by irradiation treatment in a dose-dependent manner. Gamma ray, electron beam, and X-ray at doses above 8 kGy caused 100% inhibition on growth of aerobic bacteria in red pepper powders. Inhibitory activity of X-ray on sterilization of red pepper powders was significantly equal to or higher compared to gamma ray and electron beam. Color and off flavor in red pepper powders were no significant difference among the control and samples irradiated with gamma ray, electron beam, and X-ray. As a result, the gamma ray, electron beam, and X-ray irradiation can be used to sterilize the microbial growth in red pepper powders without quality loss.

Characteristics of premixed flames in counter-flow system are numerically studied using a detailed chemical reaction mechanism including gas phase radiation. Without radiation effect accounted, low CO and high NO$_{x}$ emission indices are observed, when strain rate decreases, due to increased residence time and higher flame temperature. Higher NO$_{2}$ production has been also observed when two premixed flames are interacting or cold air stream is mixed with burned gas. The rate of NO$_{x}$ production and destruction is dependent upon the diffusional strength of H and OH radicals, the existence of NO and the concentration of HO$_{2}$. For radiating flames, the peak temperature and NO$_{x}$ production rate decreases as the strain rate decreases. At high strain rate, it is found that the effect of radiation on flame is little due to its negligible radiating volume. It is also found that NO$_{x}$ production from the interacting premixed flame is reduced due to reduced temperature resulting from radiation heat loss. It is concluded that the radiation from gas has significant effect of flame structure and on emission characteristics.ristics.

This study gives an account of the collateral standards in IEC 60601-1-3: 2008 specifying the general requirements for basic safety and essential performance of diagnostic X-ray equipment regarding radiation protection as it pertains to the production of X-rays. The collateral standards establish general requirements for safety regarding ionization radiation in diagnostic radiation systems and describe a verifiable evaluation method of suitable requirements regarding control over the lowest possible dose equivalent for patients, radiologic technologists, and others. The particular standards for each equipment can be determined by the general requirements in the collateral standard and the particular standard is followed in the risk management file. The guidelines for radiation safety of diagnostic radiation systems is written up in ISO 13485, ISO 14971, IEC 60601-1-3(2002)1st edition, medical electric equipment part 1-3, and the general requirements for safety-collateral standards: programmable electrical medical systems. Therefore the diagnostic radiation system protects citizens' health rights with the establishment and revisions of laws and standards for diagnostic radiation systems as a background for the general requirements of radiation safe guards applies, as an international trend, standards regarding the medical radiation safety management. The diagnostic radiation system will also assure competitive power through a conforming evaluation unifying the differing standards, technical specifications, and recognized processes.

Objective: The author measured levels of fluoroscopic radiation exposure to the surgeon's body based on the different beam directions during kyphoplasty. Methods: This is an observational study. A series of 84 patients (96 vertebral bodies) were treated with kyphoplasty over one year. The patients were divided into four groups based on the horizontal and vertical directions of the X-Ray beams. We measured radiation exposure with the seven dosimetry badges which were worn by the surgeon in each group (total of 28 badges). Twenty-four procedures were measured in each group. Cumulative dose and dose rates were compared between groups. Results: Fluoroscopic radiation is received by the operator in real-time for approximately 50% (half) of the operation time. Thyroid protectors and lead aprons can block radiation almost completely. The largest dose was received in the chest irrespective of beam directions. The lowest level of radiation were received when X-ray tube was away from the surgeon and beneath the bed (dose rate of head, neck, chest, abdomen and knee: 0.2986, 0.2828, 0.9711, 0.8977, 0.8168 mSv, respectively). The radiation differences between each group were approximately 2.7-10 folds. Conclusion: When fluoroscopic guided-KP is performed, the X-Ray tube should be positioned on the opposite side of the operator and below the table, otherwise the received radiation to the surgeon's body would be 2.7-10 times higher than such condition.

Application of X-ray irradiation of dried condiments was studied using commercially prepared dried garlic, onion and welsh onion flakes as model samples. Total load of aerobic microbes (TAM), color differences, and generation of off-flavor were quantified for samples individually irradiated with gamma rays, electrons, or X-rays. TAM load was decreased by irradiation in a dose-dependent manner. The three types of radiation did not differ in the extent of TAM reduction (P>0.05). The samples did not differ in color. Off-flavor was detected from 6 kGy-irradiated samples, regardless of radiation sources. The results indicated that X-ray irradiation could be used for irradiation of dried condiments with the same effects as gamma rays and an electron beam.

기존 구내 치근단 촬영용 장치는 환자 피폭선량, 촬영시 고통 등의 문제점을 지니고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 신개념의 삽입형 초소형 X선 시스템의 가능성을 검증하였다. 먼저 초소형 X선 튜브에 사용될 콜리메이터와 필터를 설계하기 위하여 Geant4를 이용하여 최적의 콜리메이터 두께와 필터 두께를 결정하였으며 CdTe 검출기와 PX4 모듈을 이용하여 결정된 두께에서의 X선 스펙트럼을 확인하였다. 또한 기존 상용화된 치근단 촬영장치와 XOFT사의 초소형 X선 튜브를 이용하여 제작된 치아 팬텀에 대한 영상을 획득하였다. 그 결과 제안된 신개념의 삽입형 초소형 X선 시스템은 기존 시스템과 유사한 영상의 질을 나타내었다. 이는 향후 치근단 촬영용 장치를 비롯하여 다양한 응용부위에 활용할 수 있음을 나타낸다.

최근 고령화 사회에 접어들고 있는 의료현장에서 치아건강에 대한 관심이 커지면서 진단을 위한 치아 방사선 검사의 횟수가 증가하고 있다. 이는 국민 전체의 방사선피폭량 또한 증가하고 있다고 볼 수 있다. 또한 치과방사선에 대한 국민들의 방사선 피폭에 대한 관심도 증가하고 있어 치과 파노라마 촬영장치에 대한 기본 데이터 확보와 이에 대한 조사 및 선량의 측정이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 ALOKA PDM-117 선량계를 이용하여 치과파노라마장치(VATEC Pax-400)에서 발생되는 2차원적인 선량분포도를 측정하고 그 분포에 대한 평가를 환자의 방사선피폭 차원에서 확인하였다. 치과파노라마장치의 선량분포는 치아부분 이외에도 턱과 안면부위에서 높았으며 산란선의 영향까지 고려한다면 방사선에 민감한 수정체에까지 불필요한 방사선의 피폭됨을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과는 다양한 크기의 검사체와 선량 측정위치에서 보다 정확한 선량평가를 하는데 매우 유용하게 이용될 것으로 사료된다.

X-선 발생장치 시설에 대한 방사선 차폐해석은 두가지 측면에서 고려된다. 먼저 1차 방사선과 누설방사선에 의한 영향을 고려하여야 하며 본 연구에서는 NCRP-49 및 51에 제시된 방법을 사용하였다. 둘째, 시설의 미로 출입구에서는 산란방사선에 의한 영향이 보다 중요한데, 본연구에서는 이 영향을 평가하기 위하여 Albedo 개념을 근거로 한 단순한 방법이 제시되었고, 이를 토대로 계산된 결과를 컴퓨터 코-드(MORSE-CG)의 계산치 및 실측된 결과와 비교하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 방법에 의한 결과는 미로출입구 안쪽의 경우에 대한 해석에서는 약간의 오차를 보이고 있으나 미로출입구 문바깥에서는 비교적 잘 일치한다. 여기서 출입문바깥의 경우에 대한 해석이 방사선방어 측면에서 보다 중요하다는 관점에서 볼 때 이 방법은 의료용 또는 산업용의 X-선 및 감마선시설의 차폐설계 및 해석에 응용될 수 있을 것이라고 판단된다.
