  • Duplex sonography is used widely in various medical fields because of its repeatability and low cost. In particular, the carotid duplex sonography is a useful non-invasive test for diagnosing cerebrovascular disease and predicting the prognosis. In clinical practice, it is very important to reduce the test time and improve accuracy. The patient's clinical information must be known in advance to perform carotid duplex sonography quickly and accurately. Despite this, there are often difficulties finding new cervical vascular diseases that are not mentioned in the clinical information. Therefore, knowing a variety of cases can lead to fast and accurate results. In this context, this paper reports three cases of cervical vascular disease discovered unexpectedly during carotid duplex sonography: CASE 1, internal carotid artery occlusion and cerebral arteries branched from the external carotid artery; CASE 2, internal jugular vein thrombosis; CASE 3, microembolism observed in the vertebral artery.

  • A high-voltage highly-integrated analog front-end (AFE) IC for medical ultrasound imaging applications is implemented using standard 0.18-${\mu}m$ CMOS process. The proposed AFE IC is composed of a high-voltage (HV) pulser utilizing stacked transistors generating up to 15 Vp-p pulses at 2.6 MHz, a low-voltage low-noise transimpedance preamplifier, and a HV switch for isolation between the transmit and receive parts. The designed IC consumes less than $0.15mm^2$ of core area, making it feasible to be applied for multi-array medical ultrasound imaging systems, including portable handheld applications.

A Study on the Structural Relation among Purchase Decision Factors of Medical Devices, Satisfaction and Repurchasing Intention : Focused on Ultrasound Imaging System (의료기기의 구매결정요인과 만족 및 재구매 의도의 구조적 관계에 관한 연구 : 초음파영상진단장치를 중심으로)

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the casual relationships among purchase decision factors of medical devices, satisfaction and repurchasing intention. Data of this study is a 2012 survey on medical institutions using medical devices of MW(ministry of health and welfare) and We analyzed 116 medical institutions having ultrasound imaging system lager than general hospitals among data. For empirical analysis, we carried out confirmative factor analysis and path-analysis using AMOS 21.0 package. Main results of this study are as follows: First, brand has positive influence on satisfaction and satisfaction has positive impaction on repurchase intention. Second, although not statistically significant, performance and service have positive impaction on satisfaction and price has negative influence on satisfaction. The significance of this study is to provide empirical basis on establishment of efficient marketing strategy and enhancement of competitiveness for the medical device industry.
