One of the fields to which the 3D printing technology can be applied is the field of medicine. Recently, the application of 3D printing technology to the bio-medical field has been gradually increasing with the commercializing of the bio-compatible or bio-degradable materials. The technology is currently contributing to the biomedical field by reducing times required for operations or minimizing adverse effects through preoperative identification of post-surgical consequences or model surgery with artificial bones and organs. This technology also enables the production of customized biomedical auxiliary products like hearing aids or artificial legs etc. For the field of dentistry, the 3D printing technology is also expected to elevate the level of dental treatment by making the customized orthodontic models, crown, bridge, inlay, and surgical guides for implant and surgery. However, issues remaining unidentified or incomplete in printing materials, modeling technology, software technology associated with CAD, verification of bio-stability and bio-effectiveness of materials or in compatibility and standardization of the technology are yet to be solved or be clarified for the full-scale application of the 3D printing technology, thus, it seems such issues should be resolved through further studies.

With the expansion of the medical field worldwide, interest in medical devices is also increasing. However, since the field of the special nature of the medical device, is utilized in accordance with the respective devices is determined, the amount depending on the fields, to purchase a medical device is increased. Function digital parts (such as ECG, SpO2) are similar to each other, but there is a disadvantage by applying the method of designing separate each product, the reproduction of the program is difficult, Each product, each product the various OS is used, so that either can not be reused even if a program for the same function, it takes time to develop additional. In this paper, I would like to propose a study of the implementation of the platform of the biological signal of medical equipment to try solve the problems of the medical equipment of these.

Recently, as interest in health increases, the wearable market that can collect various biometric information is expanding. In addition, telemedicine and healthcare services through these bio-signals are expected to become common. In this paper, we introduce a service that can store bio-signals collected through IoT equipment in a database and monitor them in real time through the web. By implementing a system for collecting and storing biometric data and real-time monitoring, it can be utilized for various health management diagnosis.

Over last three decades, various biomaterials has been developed and applied in the biomedical market. The practical utilization of biomaterials depends on the study about an appropriate physical and biological response of biomaterials. The modification of biomaterials using various surface treatment methods has recently become an interesting topic in the field of surface engineering. A padient surface is the surface on which a gradually varying chemical composition exists along its length. A large number of research groups have been focused on the preparation of gradient surfaces. Such gradient surface is of particular interest for basic and applied studies of the interactions between biological species and surfaces since the effect of a selected property like wettability or chemical composition can be examined in a single experiment on one surface. The present review focuses on the preparation and characterization of various gradient surfaces, and their interactions with biological species.

In order to acquire new information and biological meaning of the signal data by defining the relationships between them, new modeling technique, ontology, has been proposed. The data of bio-signal can be represented as a systematic and logical to manage continuously bio-signal data using ontology. Furthermore, knowledge of which resources are utilized to provide improved service quality in medical information, health services in various fields. However, relevant studies have not been performed actively to compare importance of relationships between bio-signals. Therefore semantic representation of biometric information should be by defining the relationship between bio-signals. In this paper, we have developed bio-signal ontology to use as a model for using domain knowledge. We verified the usefulness of the ontology by using scenarios.

최근 포항 방사광 가속기 연구소에 미세구조 X-선 영상 실험을 위한 5C1 방사광(Synchrtoron Radiation) 빔라인이 건설되었다. 광대역의 에너지 스펙트럼을 가진 방사광 X-선이 물체를 투과한 후 CdWO$_{4}$ scintillator에 의해 가시광선으로 바뀌고, 그 빛을 CCD 카메라로 받아들여 영상을 획득하게 된다. 방사광 X-선은 일반 의료진단용 X-선에 비하여 위상이 일치하고, 평행하며, 그 양이 풍부한 특성들을 갖고 있다. 방사광 영상시스템과 X-선 유방촬영 시스템에서 영상을 획득하여 영상특성들을 비교, 분석하였다. 고-분해능 X-선 시험 패턴(20 line pairs mm$^{-1}$), 유방촬영 팬텀, 파라핀에 고정한 인체 유방암조직과 포르말린에 고정한 인체 유방암조직, 그리고 capillary tube내 micro-bubbles등의 방사광 영상은 기존의 X-선 유방촬영시스템에서 얻은 영상보다 분해능이 뛰어나고 영상질도 우수하였다. 방사광 X-선 영상시스템은 micrometer 공간 분해능 영상을 획득할 수 있어 많은 기초분야의 영상연구와 의료영상분야에서도 활발하게 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

Recent advancements in modern transportation have led to the active development of various biomedical signal and medical imaging technologies. Particularly, in the field of cognitive/neuroscience, the importance of electroencephalography (EEG) measurement and the development of accurate EEG measurement technology in moving vehicles represent a challenging area. This study aims to extensively investigate and analyze the trends in technology research utilizing EEG during driving. For this purpose, the Scopus database was used to explore EEG-related research conducted since the year 2000, resulting in the selection of about 40 papers. This paper sheds light on the current trends and future directions in signal processing technology, EEG measurement device development, and in-vehicle driver state monitoring technology. Additionally, a ultra compact 32-channel EEG measurement module was designed. By implementing it simply and measuring and analyzing EEG signals, in-vehicle EEG module's functionality was checked. This research anticipates that the technology for measuring and analyzing biometric signals during driving will contribute to driver care and health monitoring in the era of autonomous vehicles.
