본 논문에서는 CT영상을 구성하는 RT 알고리즘에 비해 원추형 CB-CT 시스템에서 이용할 수 있는 TPSM 알고리즘을 적용하여 기존의 RT보다 빠르게 3D CT 영상 구성을 할 수 있도록 하였으며 두 개의 알고리즘에 대한 영상속도를 비교분석 하였다. 이를 위하여 원추형 CB-CT 시스템에서 이용할 수 있는 TPSM 알고리즘을 적용하여 3D CT 영상구성에 있어서 실시간 처리가 가능하도록 하였다. 실험결과 TPSM을 이용하여 구성된 단면 영상은 중심점에서 멀어질수록 빈 화소에 의해 영상의 질이 미소하게 감소하지만 TPSM 회전 기반법의 경우에서 영상 구성 속도는 RT알고리즘보다 월등하게 우수하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Purpose: Facial trauma is increasing along with increasing popularity in sports, and increasing exposure to crimes or traffic accidents. Compared to the 3D CT of 1990s, the latest CT has made significant improvement thus resulting in higher accuracy of diagnosis. The objective of this study is to compare 64 channel 3 dimensional volume CT(3D VCT) with conventional 3D CT in the diagnosis and treatment of facial bone fractures. Methods: 45 patients with facial trauma were examined by 3D VCT from Jan. 2006 to Feb. 2007. 64 channel 3D VCT which consists of 64 detectors produce axial images of 0.625 mm slice and it scans 175 mm per second. These images are transformed into 3 dimensional image using software Rapidia 2.8. The axial image is reconstructed into 3 dimensional image by volume rendering method. The image is also reconstructed into coronal or sagittal image by multiplanar reformatting method. Results: Contrasting to the previous 3D CT which formulates 3D images by taking axial images of 1-2 mm, 64 channel 3D VCT takes 0.625 mm thin axial images to obtain full images without definite step ladder appearance. 64 channel 3D VCT is effective in diagnosis of thin linear bone fracture, depth and degree of fracture deviation. Conclusion: In its expense and speed, 3D VCT is superior to conventional 3D CT. Owing to its ability to reconstruct full images regardless of the direction using 2 times higher resolution power and 4 times higher speed of the previous 3D CT, 3D VCT allows for accurate evaluation of the exact site and deviation of fine fractures.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dimensional errors between real tooth, 3D CT image and CARP model. Materials and Methods : Two maxilla and two mandible block bones with intact teeth were taken from two cadavers. Computed tomography was taken either in dry state and in wet state. After then, all teeth were extracted and the dimensions of the real teeth were measured using a digital caliper at mesio-distal and bucco-lingual width both in crown and cervical portion. 3D CT image was generated using the V-works $4.0^{TM}$ (Cybemed Inc., Seoul, Korea) software. Twelve teeth were randomly selected for CARP model fabrication. All the measurements of 3D Ct images and CARP models were made in the same manner of the real tooth group. Dimensional errors between real tooth, 3D CT image model and CARP model was calculated. Results : 1) Average of absolute error was 0.199 mm between real teeth and 3D CT image model, 0.169 mm between 3D CT image model and CARP model and 0.291 mm between real teeth and CARP model, respectively. 2) Average size of 3D CT image was smaller than real teeth by 0.149 mm and that of CARP model was smalier than 3D CT image model by 0.067mm. Conclusion : Within the scope of this study, CARP model with the 0.291 mm average of absolute eror can aid to enhance the success rate cf autogenous tooth transplantation due to the increased accuracy of recipient bone and donor tooth.

Purpose : To evaluate the usefulness of the reconstructed 3-dimensional image on the personal computer in comparison with that of the CT workstation by quantitative comparison and analysis. Materials and Methods : The spiral CT data obtained from 27 persons were transferred from the CT workstation to a personal computer, and they were reconstructed as 3-dimensional image on the personal computer using V-works 2.0/sup TM/. One observer obtained the 14 measurements on the reconstructed 3-dimensional image on both the CT workstation and the personal computer. Paired Nest was used to evaluate the intraobserver difference and the mean value of the each measurement on the CT workstation and the personal computer. Pearson correlation analysis and % incongruence were also performed. Results: I-Gn, N-Gn, N-A, N-Ns, B-A, and G-Op did not show any statistically significant difference (p>0.05), B-O, B-N, Eu-Eu, Zy-Zy, Biw, D-D, Orbrd R, and L had statistically significant difference (p<0.05), but the mean values of the differences of all measurements were below 2 mm, except for D-D. The value of correlation coefficient y was greater than 0.95 at I-Gn, N-Gn, N-A, N-Ns, B-A, B-N, G-Op, Eu-Eu, Zy-Zy, and Biw, and it was 0.75 at B-O, 0.78 at D-D, and 0.82 at both Orbrd Rand L. The % incongruence was below 4% at I-Gn, N-Gn, N-A, N-Ns, B-A, B-N, G-Op, Eu-Eu, Zy-Zy, and Biw, and 7.18%, 10.78%, 4.97%, 5.89% at B-O, D-D, Orbrd Rand L respectively. Conclusion : It can be considered that the utilization of the personal computer has great usefulness in reconstruction of the 3-dimensional image when it comes to the economics, accessibility and convenience, except for thin bones and the landmarks which are difficult to be located.

본 논문에서는 동일 환자에 대해 시간차를 두고 촬영한 뇌 CT-CT 혈관조영영상간 움직임을 보정하기 위한 강인하고 고속의 정합방법을 제안한다. 먼저, 두 영상에서 3차원 경계검출 기법을 이용하여 특징점을 추출하고, 기준영상에서는 이를 지역적 가중치 3차원 거리맵으로 변환한다. 부유영상을 기준영상으로 강체변환하면서 두 경계간의 상관관계가 최대인 위치를 탐색한다. 이 때, 최대위치가 더 이상 변화하지 않고 일정 이상 반복되면 해당위치를 최적위치로 하여 부유영상을 최적위치로 변환시켜 두 영상을 정합한다. 실험을 위하여 인공영상을 사용하여 정화성과 강인성을 평가하였고, 육안평가를 위하여 뇌 CT-CT 혈관조영영상을 사용하였다. 본 제안방법은 지역적 가중치 3차원 거리맵을 이용함으로써 적은 샘플링 개수에도 국부최대인 위치에 수렴하지 않고 최적위치로 강인하면서 고속으로 영상이 정합되었다

We propose a novel method for the registration of 3D CT scans to 2D endoscopic images during the image-guided medialization laryngoplasty. This study aims to allow the surgeon to find the precise configuration of the implant and place it into the desired location by employing accurate registration methods of the 3D CT data to intra-operative patient and interactive visualization tools for the registered images. In this study, the proposed registration methods enable the surgeon to compare the outcome of the procedure to the pre-planned shape by matching the vocal folds in the CT rendered images to the endoscopic images. The 3D image fusion provides an interactive and intuitive guidance for surgeon by visualizing a combined and correlated relationship of the multiple imaging modalities. The 3D Magic Lens helps to effectively visualize laryngeal anatomical structures by applying different transparencies and transfer functions to the region of interest. The preliminary results of the study demonstrated that the proposed method can be readily extended for image-guided surgery of real patients.

초음파 CT는 시기적으로 가장 빨리 X-ray CT와 함께 연구되어 왔으나 인체내의 투과성, 난반사, 긴파장등에 의해 실용화가 아직은 요원하다. 초음파 CT는 크게 Time of flight (TOF)CT, Attenuation CT, Reflection CT, Diffraction CT등으로 나눌수 있다. 초기에는 TOF CT, Attenuation CT의 연구가 주로 이루어 졌으나 투과의 문제로 인하여 실제로는 유방의 진단에 국한되고 있다. Reflection CT는 초음파의 특성상 실용화가 가장 쉬우나 Transducer 크기등의 문제로 연구가 지연되고 있다. Diffraction CT는 모든 초음파 CT의 특성을 갖고 있으며 현재에 실용화는 요원한 실정이다. KAIST에서는 TOF CT와 Reflection CT의 특징을 결합한 초음파 CT를 연구 발표한 바 있다. 3-D Image은 지금까지의 초음파진단장치에서 표시하는 2-D Image가 갖고 있는 제반의 문제들을 극복하기 위해 현재 KAIST에서 활발히 연구가 진행중에 있다.

Purpose Microtia is congenital anomaly of external ear and the reconstruction method for the external ear of microtia patient was based on autogenous costal cartilage framework. The application of 3D printing technique in medical science has made more possibility of human tissue restoration, and we tried to apply this technique in auricular reconstruction field. Materials and Methods As for unilateral microtia patient, the contralateral side ear is normal and reconstructive surgeon tried to mimic it for reconstruction of affected ear. So, we obtained facial CT scan of microtia patient and made mirror image of normal side ear. Moreover, to make the 3D scaffold based on the mirror image of normal ear and to apply this scaffold for the auricular reconstruction surgery, we included auriculocephalic sulcus and anterior fixation part. Results We could successfully obtain mirror image of normal ear, auriculocephalic sulcus and anterior fixation part for 3D scaffold printing. Conclusions Using this CT image processing and 3D printing technique, we will be able to make the scaffold for auricular reconstruction of unilateral microtia patient, and perform auricular reconstruction in near future.
