The $TomoTherapy^{(R)}$ beam-delivery method creates helical beam-junctioning patterns in the dose distribution within the target. In addition, the dose discrepancy results in the particular region where the resonance by pattern of dose delivery occurs owing to the change in the position and shape of internal organs with a patient's respiration during long treatment times. In this study, we evaluated the dose pattern of the longitudinal profile with the change in respiration. The superior-inferior motion signal of the programmable respiratory motion phantom was obtained using AbChes as a four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT) original moving signal. We delineated virtual targets in the phantom and planned to deliver the prescription dose of 300 cGy using field widths of 1.0 cm, 2.5 cm, and 5.0 cm. An original moving signal was fitted to reflecting the beam delivery time of the $TomoTherapy^{(R)}$. The EBT3 film was inserted into the phantom movement cassette, and static, without the movement and with the original movement, was measured with signal changes of 2.0 s, 4.0 s, and 5.0 s periods, and 2.0 mm and 4.0 mm amplitudes. It was found that a dose fluctuation within ${\pm}4.0%$ occurred in all longitudinal profiles. Compared with the original movement, the region of the gamma index above 1 partially appeared within the target and the border of the target when the period and amplitude were changed. Gamma passing rates were 95.00% or more. However, cases for a 5.0 s period and 4.0 mm amplitude at a field width of 2.5 cm and for 2.0 s and 5.0 s periods at a field width of 5.0 cm have gamma passing rates of 92.73%, 90.31%, 90.31%, and 93.60%. $TomoTherapy^{(R)}$ shows a small difference in dose distribution according to the changes of period and amplitude of respiration. Therefore, to treat a variable respiratory motion region, a margin reflecting the degree of change of respiration signal is required.

Background: The aims of this study are to evaluate the lip morphology and change of lip commissure after mandibular setback surgery (MSS) for class III patients and analyze association between the amount of mandibular setback and change of lip morphology. Methods: The samples consisted of 14 class III patients treated with MSS using bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy. Lateral cephalogram and cone-beam CT were taken before and about 6 months after MSS. Changes in landmarks and variables were measured with 3D software program $Ondemand^{TM}$. Paired and independent t tests were performed for statistical analysis. Results: Landmarks in the mouth corner (cheilion, Ch) moved backward and downward (p < .005, p < .01). However, cheilion width was not statistically significantly changed. Landmark in labrale superius (Ls) was not altered significantly. Upper lip prominence angle (ChRt-Ls-$ChLt^{\circ}$) became acute. Landmarks in stomion (Stm), labrale inferius (Li) moved backward (p < .005, p < .001). Lower lip prominence angle (ChRt-Li-$ChLt^{\circ}$) became obtuse (p < .001). Height of the upper and lower lips was not altered significantly. Length of the upper lip vermilion was increased (p =< 0.01), and length of the lower lip vermilion was decreased (p < .05). Lip area on frontal view was not statistically significantly changed, but the upper lip area on lateral view was increased and change of the lower lip area decreased (p > .05, p < .005). On lateral view, upper lip prominent point (UP) moved downward and stomion moved backward and upward and the angle of Ls-UP-Stm ($^{\circ}$) was decreased. Lower lip prominent point (LP) moved backward and downward, and the angle of Stm-LP-Li ($^{\circ}$) was increased. Li moved backward. Finally, landmarks in the lower incisor tip (L1) moved backward and upward, but stomion moved downward. After surgery, lower incisor tip (L1) was positioned more superiorly than stomion (p < .05). There were significant associations between horizontal soft tissue and corresponding hard tissue. The posterior movement of L1 was related to statistically significantly about backward and downward movement of cheilion. Conclusions: The lip morphology of patients with dento-skeletal class III malocclusion shows a significant improvement after orthognathic surgery. Three-dimensional lip morphology changes in class III patients after MSS exhibited that cheilion moved backward and downward, upper lip projection angle became acute, lower lip projection angle became obtuse, change of upper lip area on lateral view was increased, change of lower lip area decreased, and morphology of lower lip was protruding. L1 was concerned with the lip tissue change in statistically significant way.

목적: 삼차원 유한 요소 모델을 이용하여 해부학적 이중 다발 전방십자인대 재건술 시행 후 전방 전위 및 회전 부하에 따른 이식건의 응력 분포 양상을 살펴보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 건강한 성인 남성의 우측 슬관절을 대상으로 한 $0^{\circ}$ 및 $45^{\circ}$ 굴곡 위에서의 고해상도 컴퓨터 전산화 단층 촬영을 기반으로 삼차원 슬관절 모델을 구축하였다. Computer aided design (CAD) 프로그램으로 $0^{\circ}$ 굴곡 슬관절 모델에서 전내측 및 후외측 다발의 중심점에 직경 7 mm의 터널을 생성시키고, 각각의 터널에 이식건을 삽입시켜 해부학적 이중 다발 재건술을 시행하였다. 구축된 모델을 $45^{\circ}$ 굴곡위로 시뮬레이션 한 후 대퇴골에 대한 경골의 5 mm 전방 전위 및 $10^{\circ}$ 내회전 부하를 각각 구현하여 이식건 응력 양상의 유한 요소 분석을 시행하였다. 결과: 전방 전위 시 전내측 다발의 응력 분포는 주로 경골 부착부와 대퇴골 부착부의 전방부에서 증가된 양상을 보였고, 후외측 다발 역시 이식건의 전방부 전장에 걸쳐 응력이 증가되었다. 내회전 부하 시 전내측 다발은 경골 부착부 전면에서 응력이 가장 증가되었다. 후외측 다발의 응력 분포 또한 전반적으로 후방부보다 전방부에서 응력이 증가하였다. 결론: 슬관절 유한 요소 모델에서 전방 전위 및 회전 부하 시 전내측 다발 및 후외측 다발 공히 비슷한 양상으로 응력이 증가하는 소견을 보였다.
