Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry is mainly used as an X-ray test method. For equipment manufactured GE and Hologic, cross-calibration analyses (CCA) of machines from the same manufacturer and between units from different manufacturers have been conducted, but the CCA of equipment manufactured in Korea are inadequate. Through CCA, we present a formula of the intersections between the Korean medical equipment company (KEC) with GE and Hologic manufactured DXA, and among the KEC DXA. The CCA was conducted for the European Spine Phantom on DXA from four KEC and three global medical equipment company (GEC) manufacturers. We compared bone mineral density (BMD) values and calculated the CCA equation by linear regression analysis. The standard-deviations (SD) of the BMD values were highest for the Dexxum T for the low, medium, and high spine, which were 0.030, 0.029, and 0.037, respectively. The smallest SD in the low and medium vertebrae were 0.005 and 0.004 for the Horizon Ci, respectively, and 0.005 for the Osteo Pro Max in the high vertebrae. Based on the intersection equations of the KEC DXA established in this study, CCA of various KEC DXA should be established for more accurate follow-up of BMD tests in clinical environments.

본 논문은 DNA 특성분석 기능을 수행하는 전기영동 장치와 분석결과 해석 기능을 수행하는 젤닥 장치를 통합한 장치를 제안하였다. 이들 두 기능을 독립적으로 수행하는 기존의 시스템은 바이오 전문가의 중간 개입 작업이 필요하며 경험치에 의존하는 검사의 부적황성, 높은 오염가능성, 긴 검사시간 등의 한계점을 가지고 있다. 기존 장비에서 독립적으로 수행하던 두 기능을 동시에 수행하도록 하여, 현 시스템의 한계점들을 개선 할 수 있는 장치를 제안하고 구현하였다. 한편 기존에는 완료된 최종 결과 영상 한 장만을 획득 할 수 있었던 것에 반해 특성분석 중에 결과 영상을 실시간으로 모니터링할 수 있어서 DNA 특성 분석의 성공 여부를 조기에 판단할 수 있었다.

This study demonstrates holding condition of CT by medical institution classification and by season, and examination fee in Korea currently to quantitatively understand frequency of examination region by change of CT equipment, domestic growing trend and change of distribution and using rate. Recent 10 years of CT holding condition by medical institution classification (Tertiary hospital, General hospital, Hospital, Clinic, Dental hospital, Dental clinic, Hospitalized health center) and by year (2003-2012), and CT examination fee of distribution of medical institution by year is surveyed. The holding ratio of Tertiary hospital level and General hospital level is 32.7% in 2003 and 33.0% in 2012. Whereas, Hospital and Clinic level is 74.2% in 2003 and 66.8% in 2012, which takes approximately 70%. Based on data in 2012, it is 82.2% of total examination fee in Tertiary hospital and General hospital, while 17.5% in hospital and clinic. CT holding rate of Hospital level is increasing, while Clinic level is decreasing. Approximately 80% of CT examination fee is claimed by Tertiary hospital and General hospital. Therefore, there is a significant correlation between CT holding condition of medical institution classification and examination fee. Particularly, correlation between CT holding number of Tertiary hospital and examination fee is significant (p<.001). The more CT holding number, the higher the amount claimed examination fee.

The purpose of this study was to develop a respiratory synchronization device for X-ray (X-RSD) to increase the reproducibility of inspiration when examining the Chest X-ray of a patient who difficulty in breathing coordination. The X-RSD was self-made using an air pressure sensor and air was injected by connecting a ventilator to the mannequin for CPR. At this time, the amount of injected air was quantified using the SkillReporting device. After placing the X-RSD on the chest of the mannequin, the amount of air was tested in 6 steps from 200 to 700 cc by 100 cc increased. For the accuracy evaluation, the sensitivity of X-RSD was measured by repeating a total of 80 measurements, and the sensitivity was 100%, and very precise results were obtained. After that, the images examined while viewing the X-RSD of the chest lateral examination and the images obtained by the blind examination were compared and evaluated. The lung volume of X-RSD was larger than that of the blind test, and the deviation was smaller. Overall, the use of X-RSD can help with chest X-ray examination of patients who have difficulty in cooperating, and it is thought that it will be possible to contribute to the reduction of exposure dose by reducing the repeat rate of general X-ray examinations.

This paper presents a study on the helical gear inspection system for application to vehicle transmission gear manufacturing lines. The special gear profile inspection system is not suitable for manufacturing lines due to the measuring time. The master gear method, which was used in this study and compared with the machined gear in the line, is more efficient and economical. In this paper, three helical gear inspection parameters were of concern: nick, run-out, and PCD (pitch circle diameter) error. To evaluate its influence on the accuracy, the gear measuring system was also studied. This system can be useful in practical vehicle transmission gear manufacturing lines, where imported equipment is currently being used.

우리나라는 60년대 초부터 80년대 후반까지 중화학공업의 육성에 급급한 나머지 각종 산업분야에서 사용 및 생산된 유해화학물질의 환경과 인간에 미치는 영향은 거의 무시되어왔기 때문에 80년대 후반부터 각종 유해화학물질로 인한 직업병이 노출되어 사회문제화 되었다. 따라서 시급하게 이들 유해화학물질을 관리해야 할 필요성이 대두되고 이를 위한 제도적 장치가 마련되었다. 바로 이것이 작업환경측정 및 임상검사에 대한 정도관리제도이다. 작업환경측정을 위한 정도관리는 작업환경측정에 관한 정도관리규정(노동부 고시 제 92-18호, 1992, 4, 16) 에 의거 한국산업안전공단에서 현재 매년 2회에 걸쳐 실시하고 있으며, 근로자의 임상시료에 대한 정도관리는 1977년 대한임상검사 정도관리학회에서 실시한 이래 현재까지 자율적으로 계속 실시되고 있고, 제도적으로는 근로자 건강진단 실시기준(노동부 고시 제 92-9호, 1992. 4. 2)에 의거 대한산업보건협회가 현재까지 70여개 대상기관에 대한 매년 2회를 실시하고 있다. 그러나 작업환경측정이나 임상시료에 대한 결과치의 신뢰도 증대가 요구되는 현시점에서 신뢰도 증진의 중요한 요소중의 하나인 검사기기의 정도관리는 더더욱 그 중대함을 더해가고 있으나 우리의 실정이 이를 만족시키지 못하고 검사기기에 대한 정도관리를 할 수 있는 참고할 서적이나 방법이 부족하여 관련분야의 실무자들이 많은 애로점을 갖고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 여기에서는 검사에 사용되는 각종 기기에 대한 기초원리, 사용목적, 검사순서, 적용범위, 취급상의 주의, 사용하는 입장에서의 보수관리에 대해 서술함으로써 작업환경측정이나 임상정도관리 및 기타 관련분야에서 공통으로 사용하는 검사기기에 대한 정도관리를 함으로써 더욱더 신뢰도 높은 결과를 얻는데 기여할 수 있는 것으로 기대된다. 또한 여기에 소개한 기초원리나 응용분야에서 부족한 점은 화학, 물리학 및 임상병리학 등 전문서적을 참고하여 주기 바란다.

In this paper, we propose a method to improve the accuracy of positioning by adding angle and distance validation to the existing Bluetooth-based positioning method using the angle of arrival. In the existing positioning method, an error occurs in the positioning value due to a multipath phenomenon induced in a non-visible distance environment. The proposed method derives the maximum and minimum angles of arrival that can be measured in consideration of the moving speed of the positioned device, and then examines whether the measured angle of arrival exceeds the range of the maximum and minimum angles of arrival. The accuracy of positioning is improved by conducting a distance validation check to see if the location of the device to be positioned and the distance to the positioning device exceed the effective distance. A simulation was conducted to analyze the positioning performance between the proposed method and the existing method, and it was confirmed that the positioning performance was improved through angle and distance validation compared to the existing method in a situation where the positioning error increased through the simulation results.

In this study, a study on the performance and aging of explosive bolts stored for a long time among pyrotechnic mechanical devices(PMD) used as separation devices in the defense field is conducted. For this, explosive bolts that had been installed in the weapon system for about 10 years are secured. Performance and life extension test procedures are established based on the AIAA Standard and MIL-STD. Before performance evaluation, non-functional tests are performed to check whether external changes or failures occurred. Next, circuit inspection and X-ray tests are conducted to check the failure in internal circuits and structures. After that, performance test is carried out to confirm the operation of the samples that passed the non-functional test. Through this test, separation of bolt and separation time are measured, and some samples are tested after a high temperature storage test to confirm the remaining life and the possibility of extension. Finally, the remaining life and reliability are predicted based on the results of the test and the Arrhenius model to identify remaining shelf life and reliability depend on time.
