충격에 의해 복합 재료 내에 발생하는 층간 박리를 정량적으로 평가하기 위한 비파괴 방법중에서 Compton X-ray 역산란 기술은 초음파에 비해 비접촉식이며 박리 층간의 상호간섭이 없어 복합재료 판면의 박리 층의 위치와 크기를 검사하는데 효과적인 방법으로 사용되어 왔다. 그러나 X-ray역산란 기술에 있어서 복합재료의 박리 층과 같은 미세한 결함의 측정을 위해 측정 정도를 높이면 역산란 양의 감소로 인해 신호 대 잡음 비(SNR)가 급격히 감소하여 결함검출 가능성이 크게 저하된다. 본 논문에서는 복합재료의 특성을 고려한 X-ray 역산란 모델을 기초로 적응필터를 사용하여 결함신호를 비선형 감쇄, 빔 경화(X-ray hardening), 비균질 특성과 같은 잡음 신호로부터 분리, 추출하는 방법을 제시하였다. 이렇게 분리된 결함신호로부터 정량적인 결함(박리)의 위치와 크기를 수학적 산란 모델과의 비교를 통해 최소 자승법을 이용하여 결정하였다.

This paper presents a shape reconstruction method for automatic inspection of the solder joints on PCBs using X-ray. Shape reconstruction from X-ray radiographic image has been very important since X-ray equipment was used for improving the reliability of inspection result. For this purpose there have been lots of previous works using tomography, which reconstructs the correct shape, laminography or tomosynthesis, which are very fast algorithm. Latter two methods show outstanding performance in cross-sectional image reconstruction of lead type component, but they are also known to show some fatal limitations to some kinds of components such as BGA, because of shadow effect. Although conventional tomography does not have any shadow effect, the shape of PCB prohibits it from being applied to shape reconstruction of solder joints on PCB. This paper shows that tomography using Iterative Reconstruction Technique(IRT) can be applied to this difficult problem without any limitations. This makes conventional radiographic instrument used for shape reconstruction without shadow effect. This means that the new method makes cost down and shadow-free shape reconstruction. To verify the effectiveness of IRT, we develop three dimensional model of BGA solder ball, make projection model to obtain X-ray projection data. and perform a simulation study of shape reconstruction. To compare the performance of IRT with that of conventional laminography or tomosynthesis, reconstruction data are reorganized and error analysis between the original model are also performed.

Computation of three dimensional dose distribution using CT image and RT plan was applied to a case of pituitary adenoma. Algorithm was based on two dimensional Tissue Maximun Ratio model extended to the third dimension. The resulting isodose curve of transeverse, coronal and sagittal section was demonstrated. This RT plan allows computation of dose distribution in any arbitarily defined plane in addition to conventional cross sectional view.

광원의 직경이 $5{\mu}m$ 수준인 X-선을 이용하여 미세 초점 X-선 단층촬영장치(computerized tomography system)를 제작하고 제어 및 계산 프로그램을 개발하였다. 본 장치는 비파괴검사용으로서 직경 20mm 이내의 시험체를 검사할 수 있다. 단층영상을 얻기 위한 계산 알고리즘으로서는 convolution back projection 알고리즘을 사용하였으며 광원의 형상을 평행 빔과 부채꼴 빔(fan beam) 등 두 종류를 사용하여 결과를 비교하였다. 장치의 제어 및 계산은 개인용 컴퓨터에서 동작하도록 하였다. 제작된 CT 장치와 프로그램을 이용하여 제작된 시편에 대하여 단층 영상을 복원하고 시편의 내부 구조 및 결함을 관찰하였다. 단층영상을 얻은 결과 실제 모습과 일치하는 재료내부의 결함에 대한 정보를 얻을 수 있었으며 해상도는 $20{\sim}30{\mu}m$정도인 것으로 판단되었다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the hybrid instrumentation method with ProTaper and ProFile on the change of root canal area and distance from the canal to the root surface after canal shaping. The mesial canals of twenty extracted mandibular first molars having $10-20^{\circ}\Delta$ curvature were scanned using X-ray microcomputed tomography (XMCT)-scanner before root canals were instrumented. They were divided into four groups (n=10 canals ter group). In Group 1, root canals were instrumented by the step-back technique with stainless steel K-Flexofile after coronal flaring. The remainders were instrumented by the crown-down technique with, ProTaper system (Group 2), ProFile (Group 3) or ProTaper (Group 4). All canals were prepared up to size 25 at the end-point of preparation and scanned again. Pre- and post-operative cross-sectional images of 1, 3, 5, and 7 mm from the apical foramen were compared. For each level, change of cross-sectional canal are and distance to the nearest external root surface was calculated using Adobe Photoshop 6.0 and image software program. In the change of cross-sectional area, Group 4 was less than Group 2 at 3 mm and 5 mm level (p<0.05). In the difference of the distance from the canal to the root surface after canal shaping, Group 4 was least among the other groups at 7 mm level (p<0.05). According to the results, the methods using ProFile or K file only and the hybrid instrumentation technique using ProTaper and ProFile are more appropriate methods of canal preparation than ProTaper system for narrow of curved canals.

This paper is aimed to develop a very reliable method for automatic inspection of the solder joints on PCBS. There have been lots of previous works using vision technologies, but they can not be used for inspecting BGA, FCA or other newly used devices. Thus we adopt X-ray technologies for solder joint inspection. We put our attention on reconstructing the 3D shapes of solder joints since it gives us the most detailed information on quality of solder joints. Laminography principle is used to reject the interferences from neighboring parts or leads. To verify the effectiveness of laminography, a simulation study is performed in the case of a solder joints on double sided PCB using.

In this study, both two- and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) finite-volume-based models were developed to analyze the heat transfer mechanisms through the porous structures of cellular concretes under steady-state heat transfer conditions and to investigate the differences between the 2D and 3D modeling results. The 2D and 3D reconstructed pore networks were generated from the microstructural information measured by 3D images captured by X-ray computerized tomography (X-CT). The computed effective thermal conductivities based on the 2D and 3D calculations performed on the reconstructed porous structures were found to be nearly identical to those evaluated from the 2D cross-sectional images and the 3D X-CT images, respectively. In addition, the 3D computed effective thermal conductivity was found to agree better with the measured values, in comparison with the 2D reconstruction and real cross-sectional images. Finally, the thermal conductivities computed for different reconstructed porous 3D structures of cellular concretes were compared with those obtained from 2D computations performed on 2D reconstructed structures. This comparison revealed the differences between 2D and 3D image-based modeling. A correlation was thus derived between the results of the 3D and 2D models.

Purpose : To evaluate the effect of deviation of mandibular positioning, by changing the mandibular plane inclination, on the measured height and width of mandible in spiral conventional tomography. Materials and Methods : By means of the Scanora multifunctional unit, cross-sectional tomograms were taken from two human dried mandibles at the mandibular angulations: -15 degree, -10 degree, -5 degree, and 0 degree. Twenty-eight sites in two dried mandibles were imaged. One examiner measured the bone heights and widths at selected sites on the images and the actual bone heights were recorded. Results : The bone heights at the four mandibular inclinations overestimated real bone heights and the mean difference between actual heights and image heights on 0 degrees was the smallest (P<0.01). The bone widths on -15 degrees were narrowest and there were significant differences between bone widths measured at the four mandibular inclinations (P<0.001). We found statistically significant differences between both bone heights and widths as measured according to the mandibular plane angle for the posterior region (P<0.01). Conclusion : The use of different mandibular positioning may result in discrepancies in heights and widths when measured from the cross-sectional tomographic images. It is suggested that the mandibular positioning may play a significant role in the measurement of mandibular heights and widths.

콘크리트 내부에 존재하는 공극(void)의 공간적 분포는 콘크리트의 역학적, 물리적 거동에 큰 영향을 미친다. 따라서 콘크리트 재료 물성의 파악과 건정성 평가를 위해 내부에 존재하는 공극의 분포 상태를 파악하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 콘크리트에는 육안으로 보이는 재료 표면의 공극 이외에도 내부 공극이 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 경량골재 콘크리트의 공극 분포를 파악하기 위하여 micro CT(X-ray microtomography)를 활용하여 생성된 3차원 콘크리트 디지털 시편을 사용하였다. 흑백처리된 단면 이미지를 중첩하여 공극을 묘사할 수 있는 3차원 시편을 생성하였다. 공극의 분포 상태를 확률적으로 묘사하기 위하여 확률 분포 함수 two-point correlation function과 lineal-path function으로 분석하였다. 또한, 이미지 분석을 통해서 콘크리트 시편의 공극의 밀도 분포를 파악하였다. 콘크리트 내부에 있는 개별 경량 골재의 공극도 이미지 처리와 확률 분포함수를 사용하여 분석하였다. Micro CT와 3차원 이미지 분석 방법을 통하여 콘크리트 내부에 존재하는 공극의 분포 상태를 효과적으로 파악할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
