To evaluate the effect of patient size on effective dose and image quality for Digital Chest Tomosynthesis(DTS) using additional 0.3 mm copper filtration. Eighty artificial nodules were placed in the thorax phantom("Lungman," Kyoto Kagaku, Japan), and Digital Chest Tomosynthesis(DTS) images of the phantom were acquired both with and without added 0.3 mm Cu filtration. To simulate patients of three sizes: small, average size and oversize, one or two 20-mm-thick layer of PMMA(polymethyl methacrylatek) blocks were placed on the phantom. The Effective dose was calculated using Monte Carlo simulations. Two evaluations of image quality methods have been employed. Three readers counted the number of nodules detected in the lung, and the measured contrast-to-noise ratios(CNRs) were used. Data were analyzed statistically. The ED reduced $26{\mu}Sv$ in a phantom, $33{\mu}Sv$ in one 20-mm-thick layer of PMMA block placed on the phantom, and $48{\mu}Sv$ in two 20-mm-thick layer of PMMA blocks placed on the phantom. The Effective dose(ED) differences between DTS with and without filtration were significant(p<0.05). In particular, when we used two 20-mm-thick layer of PMMA blocks placed on the phantom, the ED was significantly reduced by 36% compared with those without additional filtration. Nodule detection sensitivities were not different between with and without added filtration. Differences of CNRs were statistically insignificant(p>0.05). Use of additional filtration allows a considerable dose reduction during Digital Chest Tomosynthesis(DTS) without loss of image quality. In particular, additional filtration showed outstanding result for effective dose reduction on two 20-mm-thick layer of PMMA blocks placed on the phantom. It applies to overweight patients.

전자파표면유속계는 홍수유속측정을 위하여 개발된 기기로 평 갈수기에는 유속측정이 불가하여 프로펠러 유속계를 이용하고 있다. 현재 보급된 전자파표면유속계는 하천의 흐름방향에 나란하게 설치하였을 때에만 유속을 측정할 수 있는 기기의 구조상의 한계성 때문에 교량이 없는 지점에서는 유속측정이 불가하여 유량산정을 할 수가 없다. 또한 편각측정이 불가능하여 기기를 각 측선마다 이동 설치하여야 하기 때문에 유속측정시 효율성 떨어진다. 이에 홍수시 유량측정의 효율성을 증대시키고 전자파표면유속계의 활용도를 높이고자 편각측정이 가능하도록 전자파표면유속계의 성능을 개선하는 것이 본 연구의 주된 목적이다. 전자파표면 유속계에서의 편각 측정은 하천의 유속방향을 기준으로 정면에서 측정하면 수평 편각이 0도가 되며 좌우로 안테나를 회전하여 움직인 각도가 측정 편각으로 결정된다. 현장에서 전자파표면유속계의 사용시 편의성을 높이고 유량측정을 효율적으로 하기 위해서는 가급적 편각을 크게 해서 측정을 해야 하지만, 편각이 증가하면 전자파의 물리적 특성 때문에 반사된 신호의 수신 크기가 감소하여 측정이 불가능하게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 유속 측정시 전자파 출력을 기존의 시스템보다 높게 물표면에 발사하여야 하며 안테나를 포함한 RF 모듈의 수신감도 및 지향성이 개선되어야 한다. 이에 편각측정이 가능하도록 이러한 사항에 주안점을 두어 새로운 시스템을 구성하였다. 수신감도 향상을 위해서는 물표면에 반사되어 돌아오는 신호를 가장 먼저 수신하는 안테나의 특성이 중요하며 그 다음 수신용 증폭기, IF 증폭기 순으로 개선이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 안테나의 형태를 기존 파라볼릭 안테나에서 위상 배열 평면안테나로 변경하였으며, 이에 따른 이점으로는 송수신부를 분리하여 하나의 평면에 두 개의 안테나를 구성할 수 있다는 사항이다. 즉 외형적으로는 하나의 안테나로 보이지만 두 개의 안테나가 하나로 구성된 것이다. 송수신부를 분리하는 형태는 기존 파라볼릭 안테나에선 불가능한 구조로 변경에 따른 수신감도 향상은 수치적으로 10dB 이상 개선하였다. 송수신부 분리가 수신감도에 영향을 미치는 이유는 물표면으로 발사된 송신 신호의 일부가 수신단으로 유입되는 현상으로 누설되는 송신 신호를 최대한 차단하는 분리도가 수신 신호 검출에 직접적인 양향을 주기 때문에다. 평면 안테나를 적용하면 기존 파라볼릭 안테나에서 사용하던 써큘레이터라는 부품을 삭제할 수 있으며, 안테나의 구조적인 분리를 통해서 수신감도를 개선할 수 있었다. 안테나의 지향성은 발사하는 전자파의 빔폭 성능과 일치하며 각도 단위로 표시한다. 각도 값이 작을수록 전자파의 에너지가 한 곳에 집중된다고 말할 수 있다. 즉 빔폭이 크면 측정시 반사면적이 커져 정확한 지점의 유속을 측정하기 어려운 문제가 발생한다. 본 연구를 통해 빔폭은 기존 안테나 대비2도를 개선하였으며 25%의 개선 효과를 얻었다. 또한 수신감도 및 지향성 개선과 더불어 전자파의 출력을 기존 장비 대비하여 1.6배를 증가하여 편각측정을 위한 전자파표면 유속계의 성능을 개선하였다.

This study was carried out to investigate perception about body image, dietary attitude, nutrient intake and dietary self-efficacy of high school students in Pusan. A questionaire survey was distributed among 491 high school students. The survey was conducted from April 8 to April 22 in 2002. The results are summarized as follows. Forty percents of the underweight group, 53.9% of the normal weight group, 61.8% of the overweight group and 48.2% of obesity group have correct perception about their body image. Most of the students were concerned with their body image and weight control. Obesity of parents was significantly correlated with obesity of the subjects (p<0.01). The higher obesity rate, the lower dietary self-efficacy. The higher dietary self-efficacy, the higher dietary attitude. There was a significant positive correlation between the education level of their parents and dietary attitude of the subjects (p<0.01) and a significant negative correlation between obesity rate of their mothers and dietary attitude of the subjects (p<0.01). Dietary attitude scores showed no significant difference among the groups. Intakes of most nutrients, except protein, niacin and vitamin C, were lower than those of the recommended dietary allowances for Koreans. Therefore, proper nutrition education is required to improve their nutritional status and dietary self-efficacy.

Since a Compton camera has high detection sensitivity due to electronic collimation and a good energy resolution, it is a potential imaging system for nuclear medicine. In this study, we investigated the feasibility of a Compton camera for multi-tracer imaging and proposed a rotating Compton camera to satisfy Orlov's condition for 3D imaging. Two software phantoms of 140 and 511 keV radiation sources were used for Monte-Carlo simulation and then the simulation data were reconstructed by listmode ordered subset expectation maximization to evaluate the capability of multi-tracer imaging in a Compton camera. And the Compton camera rotating around the object was proposed and tested with different rotation angle steps for improving the limited coverage of the fixed conventional Compton camera over the field-of-view in terms of histogram of angles in spherical coordinates. The simulation data showed the separate 140 and 511 keV images from simultaneous multi-tracer detection in both 2D and 3D imaging and the number of valid projection lines on the conical surfaces was inversely proportional to the decrease of rotation angle. Considering computation load and proper number of projection lines on the conical surface, the rotation angle of 30 degree was sufficient for 3D imaging of the Compton camera in terms of 26 min of computation time and 5 million of detected event number and the increased detection time can be solved with multiple Compton camera system. The Compton camera proposed in this study can be effective system for multi-tracer imaging and is a potential system for development of various disease diagnosis and therapy approaches.

Many studies on polydiacetylene(PDA) have been investigated to apply to chemical and biological sensors due to their unique optical properties of color change from blue to red and fluorescence change from non-fluorescence to red fluorescence. Especially, high sensitivity against specific molecules is very important to apply polydiacetylenes to various sensors. In this study, we examined the effect of sensitivity enhancement of 10,12-pentacosadynoic acid(PCDA) vesicles in detection ${\alpha}$-cyclodextrin(CD) according to control of vesicle size by filters with different pore sizes and polymerization temperature. Colorimetric response(CR) was calculated using visible spectrometer. In order to investigate the effect of vesicle size on sensitivity of PDA vesicles, two PCDA vesicles were filtered without filtration and with 0.22 ${\mu}m$ filter. The two PCDA vesicles were polymerized at $25^{\circ}C$ and were incubated with ${\alpha}$-CD(5 mM) for 30 min. The CRs of the former and latter vesicles were 31.4% and 74.0%, respectively. Then, two PCDA vesicles filtered with 0.22 ${\mu}m$ filter were polymerized at $25^{\circ}C$ and $5^{\circ}C$ and were reacted with ${\alpha}$-CD(5 mM) for 30 min to examine the effect of polymerization temperature. The CRs of the former and latter vesicles were 74.0 and 99.2%, respectively. This suggests that vesicle sizes and polymerization temperature are key factors in enhancing the sensitivity of PDA vesicles. In addition, these results are expected to be useful to apply the PDA vesicles as biosensors to detect DNA, protein, and cells.

Multivariate models were developed for the simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of copper (II), nickel (II) and zinc (II) in water with 1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol as chromogenic reagent in the presence of Triton X-100. To overcome the drawback of spectral interferences, principal component regression (PCR) and partial least square (PLS) multivariate calibration approaches were applied. Performances were validated with several test sets, and their results were then compared. In general, no significant difference in analytical performance between PLS and PCR models. The root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) using three components for $Cu^{2+}$, $Ni^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ were 0.018, 0.010, 0.011 ppm, respectively. Figures of merit such as sensitivity, analytical sensitivity, limit of detection (LOD) were also estimated. High reliability was achieved when the proposed procedure was applied to simultaneous determination of $Cu^{2+}$, $Ni^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ in synthetic mixture and tap water.
