We evaluated diagnostic accuracy of diuretic renal scan with standardization in 45 childrens(107 hydronephrotic kidneys) with 91 diuretic assessments. Sensitivity was 100%, specificity was 78%, and accuracy was 84% in 49 hydronephrotic kidneys with standardization. Diuretic renal scan without standardization, sensitivity was 100%, specificity was 38%, and accuracy was 57 % in 58 hydronephrotic kidneys. The false-positive results were observed in 25 cases without standardization, and in 8 cases with standardization. In diuretic renal scans without standardization, the causes of false-positive results were 10 early injection of lasix before mixing of radioactivity in pelvocalyceal system, 4 full bladder, 2 markedly dilated pelvocalyceal systems postpyeloplsty, 6 extrarenal pelvis, and 3 immature kidneys of neonates. In diuretic renal scans with standardization the causes of false-positive results were 2 markedly dilated systems postpyeloplsty, 2 extrarenal pelvis, 1 immature kidney of neonate, and 2 severe venal dysfunction, 1 vesicoureteral reflux. In diuretic renal scan without standardization the false-positive results by inadequate study were common, but false-positive results by inadequate study were not found after standardization. The false-positive results by dilated pelvocalyceal systems postpyeloplsty, extrarenal pelvis, and immature kidneys of neonates were not dissolved after standardization. In conclusion, diagnostic accuracy of diuretic renal scan with standardization was useful in children with renal outflow tract obstruction by improving specificity significantly.

Urinalysis is a fundamental diagnostic test routinely performed in clinical laboratories. We evaluated two manual microscopy methods, including a novel protocol, against the standardized chamber method. A total of 402 specimens, comprising 201 positive each for red blood cells (RBCs) and white blood cells (WBCs) by the strip test and automated urine sediment analyzer, were selected for the analysis. The correlation coefficients between the standardized chamber method and the novel protocol RBC and WBC test were both r=0.98, indicating a high degree of correlation. The pair-wise agreement rates for the same grade between these two methods were 86.1% for RBCs and 88.6% for WBCs, with rates within one grade difference of both at 99.5%. In contrast, the agreement rates between the standardized chamber method and smaller or medium-sized laboratory methods were notably lower, with the same-grade rates at 11.9% for RBCs and 13.4% for WBCs, and within one grade difference at 67.2% and 74.1%, respectively. Additional analyses using the intraclass correlation coefficient and Bland-Altman plots confirmed that the novel protocol exhibited superior agreement compared to the other three manual microscopy methods tested. Therefore, we recommend the novel protocol as a standardized procedure for urine sediment preparation, given its high correlation and agreement with the standardized chamber method.

비파괴검사 기술의 레벨 향상과 안정화를 통한 시간적 재현성이 있는 비파괴검사 결과의 확보를 위해서는 비파괴검사 기술자의 자격 인정 및 인증(nondestructive testing qualification and certification of personnel)제도의 확립이 매우 중요하다. 비파괴검사 결과에 대한 유효성은 비파괴검사을 실시하는 사람의 능력이나 비파괴검사에 대한 책임을 지고 있는 사람의 능력에 크게 의존한다. 1974년부터 원자력 선진국들이 중심이 되어 수행된 PISC 프로그램(program for inspection of steel components) 및 EPRI 등에서는 순회시험 (piping inspection round-robin: PIRR trial) 결과 기존 비파괴검사 방법은 모의 시험편에 있는 상당히 큰 결함도 탐지하지 못하거나 정확한 결함크기를 측정하는데 실패한 경우가 있으며, 검사자의 기량 또는 신체조건에 상당한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다[1]. 국제표준화기구(ISO)의 비파괴검사 기술자의 기량인정 및 인증에 대한 국제규격안 DIS(draft international standard) 9712에서는 비파괴검사를 기획 실시 감독 감시 평가를 하기 위한 적절한 이론적 및 실무적 지식을 필요로 하는 기술자의 능력을 평가하고, 문서화하는 방법을 제공하는 절차를 제시하고 있다. 국제표준화기구에 의한 비파괴검사 기술자의 기량인정 및 인증에 대한 국제통합을 추진하는 동기는 제 3자에 의한 체계적인 인증시스템을 가지고 있지 않은 나라와 새로운 NDT 방법에 대해서 인증제도를 적용할 때 세계적인 공통성을 갖도록 유도하기 위함이다. 현재, 우리나라 비파괴검사 기술자의 기술자격 인증제도는 국가기술자격법에 의거하여 한국산업인력공단에서 주관하여 기술사, 기사, 산업기사, 기능사로 구분하여 실시하고 있다. 국제표준화기구의 비파괴검사 기술자의 자격과 인증에 대한 국제 통합화(안)[2]이 거의 마무리 단계에 있고 일본을 비롯한 많은 나라가 국제규격을 기초로 한 새로운 인증제도를 발족시켜 거의 시행 단계에 있다. 반면 국내에서는 한국비파괴검사학회(KSNT)에서 비파괴검사 기술자의 자격인정 및 인증제도의 개선방향이 제시된 바 있고 [3], 표준화위원회에서 나름대로 준비를 하고 있으나 아직 구체적인 실천단계에와 있지 못하다. 본 고에서는 최근 대폭수정 보완된 ISO/DIS 9712 국제규격(안)을 회원들에게 소개하고, 우리나라의 향후 대응방안에 관한 회원 여러분의 의견 수렴에 도움을 주고자 ISO/DIS 9712(1997)를 번역하여 제공한다.

The purposes of this study are to develop the standardized tests of career preparation behavior of career preparation behavior for college students. For these, the 'Career Preparation Behavior Scale for College Students' which was developed in 2011 was reviewed and revised. After 609 students were involved and analyzed for the pretest, 1,244 subjects were collected by taking into account gender, grade, major, and location of colleges for developing a standardized test. The Career Preparation Behavior Scale consisted of 3 subareas and 30 items: 11 items for learning area, 12 items for counseling and information collecting area, 7 items for employment action area. The levels of reliabilities, construct validity, discriminant validity, and the concurrent validity were relatively high. Also, the suitability index of the structural model was analyzed to check the structural significance. The degree of career reparation behavior among norm groups was increased in general according to the grades. Scores of students majoring in humanities and social sciences received significantly high scores compared with those of majoring in science and technology or in art and music. But the levels of satisfaction on career preparation behavior were no difference according to gender, grade, and major. 'The Standardized Career Preparation Behavior Scale for College Students' would be used for conducting career education or programs for college students in the future.

An electronic medical record (EMR) is the medical system that all the test are recorded as text data. However, domestic EMR systems have various forms of medical records. There are a lot of related works to standardize the laboratory codes as a LOINC (Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Code). However the existing researches resolve the problem manually. The manual process does not work when the size of data is enormous. The paper proposes a novel automatic LOINC mapping algorithm which uses indexing techniques and semantic similarity analysis of medical information. They use file system which is not proper to enormous medical data. We designed and implemented mapping algorithm for standardization laboratory codes in medical informatics compared with the existing researches that are only proposed algorithms. The automatic creation of searching words is being possible. Moreover, the paper implemented medical searching framework based on database system that is considered large size of medical data.

Laboratory medicine is a specialized division that supports physicians in the care of patients by providing rapid and accurate in vitro diagnostic tests. Standardization of every component of a specific test is essential for producing accurate results. The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) was founded to develop a formal consensus process for standardization in 1968, and has been publishing standards and guidelines covering all aspects of clinical, research, and other laboratory work. CLSI guidelines are widely used around the world for standardization. The CLSI antimicrobial susceptibility testing subcommittee (AST SC) consists of 6 standing and many ad hoc working groups. Members of the AST SC review submitted proposals and suggestions, decide on approving these submissions in face-to-face meetings held twice a year, and revise CLSI documents accordingly. As these face-to-face meetings are open to anyone who registers to attend, I strongly encourage the members of our Society to attend and actively participate in document development.

표준화란 어떤 표준을 정하고 이에 따르는 것이라고 말할 수 있으며 공업표준화는 광공업제품을 제조하거나 사용할 때 관계되는 기술적인 사항, 이를테면 모양, 칫수, 품질, 시험방법, 검사방법등을 전국적으로 통일, 단순화한 국가규격을 제정하고 이를 조직적으로 보급, 활용케 하는 것을 말한다. 이러한 표준은 기능적으로 제품규격, 방법규격, 기본규격으로 구분할 수 있으나 제정하는 자에 따라서 국제규격, 단체규격, 사회규격으로 구분할 수 있고 이들 사이에는 피라밋의 체계를 이루고 있다.

Previous researches on the effect of programming learning upon logical thinking ability have used a standardized test to measure logical thinking ability in the general and comprehensive aspect after programming learning. Considering that the areas of intelligence are separated from one another and work independently, the existing standardized tool to measure general and comprehensive logical thinking ability has a limitation in measuring a logical thinking ability required at specific areas. Thus this study extracted logical thinking and its sub-factors related to computer programming and suitable for the level of cognitive development through analyzing standardized test sheets at home and abroad, and developed logical thinking test I and II of the same form according to a development procedure model. The result of verifying the developed logical thinking tests proved that the two tests are logical thinking tests of the same form. The developed tests can be utilized in identifying the effect of programming learning upon logical thinking and its sub-factors.
