  • 현재 전세계적으로 퍼져있는 NMR-CT 시스템의 수를 살펴보면 약 370여기가 설치.운영되고 있으며 앞으로 계속 늘어날 전망이다. 국내에서는 1988 한국과학기술원과 금성통신에 의해 자체 개발된 2.0 Tesla 강자장 시스템이 최초로 서울대학병원에 설치 가동된 이래 여러병원에서 시스템들이 설치중에 있다. 첨단의로 진단장치로서의 핵자기 공명 영상법은 그 영상을 통하여 기존의 진단 장치보다 우월함을 증명하고 있으며 초음파 검사나 동위원소 검사 및 X선 전산화 단층 촬영술들을 장점을 두루 지니면서 그 영상법의 다양성 때문에 앞으로의 연구 및 발전에 대한 전망은 아주 밝다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 앞으로의 종합 영상 의료 진단 장치는 이 NMR-CT가 중심이 되어 발전할 것이라고 단언해도 무리한 생각은 아닐 것이다.

  • This study is a research based on the non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design whose purpose is to examine the effects of music therapy on the anxiety of patients who take the magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) test and their feeling of discomfort during the test. "The first hypothesis that the experimental group who receive music therapy will be lower in score for anxiety during the MRI test than the control group who do not was supported because after the therapy, the experimental group was found significantly decreased in that score in comparison to the control group. "The second hypothesis that the experimental group who receive music therapy will be fewer in vital signs after the MRI test than the control group who do not" was rejected in terms of both systolic and diastolic blood pressure. But the same hypothesis was partially supported because the two groups showed a significant difference in pulse rate after the test. "The third hypothesis that the experimental group who receive music therapy will be less in the feeling of subjective discomfort during the MRI test than the control group who do not" was verified to find that the two groups were significantly different from each other in the feeling. Specifically, there was a significant difference between the two groups in only one sub-area of that feeling, that is, tension. These findings suggest that music therapy could be an alternative method which can effectively reduce the state anxiety of patients during the magnetic resonace imaging(MRI) test.

  • 병렬영상기법(parallel imaging technique)은 하나의 수신 코일을 사용하는 기존의 방식과 달리 다수의 수신코일을 이용하여 데이터를 획득하는 기법으로서 검사시간 및 공간해상도를 향상시키기 위해 사용된다. 본 논문은 간 공여자의 자기공명영상 췌담관 조영술에서 간담도 영상의 선예도 향상을 위한 병렬영상기법의 유용성을 연구하고자 하였다.

  • Predominant involvement of a particular group of fingers due to a central nervous system lesion has been described as pseudoperipheral palsy. Two patients visited our hospital with isolated weakness of a particular group of fingers due to small cortical infarctions. A 51-year-old woman suddenly developed weakness in her left index and middle fingers. The brain MRI showed a small infarct in the right frontal cortex. A 67-year-old man was sudden difficulty using his chopsticks and had weakness in his right thumb and index finger. The brain MRI showed a small infarct in the left precentral cortex.

  • Detection of cerebrospinal fluid leakage or exact localization of leakage site after spinal surgery is difficult on conventional imaging studies. We report two patients with surgery-related spinal CSF leakage detected on magnetic resonance (MR) myelography. They presented with severe headache after spinal surgeries, lumbar discectomy and excision of spinal meningioma, respectively. The sites of spinal CSF leakage in the patients were detected accurately on MR myelography, and the patients recovered from the postoperative CSF leakage after being treated with an epidural blood patch or reoperation. MR myelography may be effective in demonstrating the exact site of surgery-related spinal CSF leakage.

  • To evaluate the effects of an artifact by metal material for orthodontics in Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) examination, wires and brackets used in orthodontics were selected and compared. Using a head coil, a $T_2$-weighted image, $T_1$-weighted image and FLAIR image were obtained. With obtained images, the sizes of the artifacts were measured and compared using Image J Program. In the research, the material with the biggest artifact in the wires and brackets for orthodontics was stainless steel wire. In the future, selecting and developing metal for correction should be considered also in other fields along with the purpose of orthodontics.

  • Tearing of the acetabular labrum is a common cause of chronic hip pain. MR arthrography (MRA) of the hip is the imaging procedure of choice for the evaluation of acetabular labrum. Familiarity with the various imaging findings of MRA of the hip allows recognition of normal variants and differentiation from true pathologic conditions. This article comprehensively reviews the technical aspects and interpretation of MRA of the hip. The appearances of normal and abnormal labra in MRA are discussed. Potential pitfalls in labral tear interpretation, such as sulci around the hip, normal variants of the labrum and plicae, and osseocartilaginous and soft tissue lesions identified on MRA of the hip are also described.
