Fast Breeder Test Reactor (FBTR) is a 40MW (thermal) / 13.2MW (electrical), Plutonium - Uranium mixed carbide fuelled, sodium cooled, loop type nuclear reactor operating at Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR), Kalpakkam. Its main aim is to generate experience in operation of fast reactors and sodium systems and to serve as an irradiation facility for development of fuels and structural materials fur fast reactors. Nuclear reactors pose difficulties to the NDT techniques used to monitor the conditions of the internal components. Sodium cooled fast breeder reactors have their own typical difficulties in using the NDT techniques. These are due to the need for operation in aggressive environment of nuclear radiation and sodium (molten/vapour), as well as the need to maintain leak tightness of a very high order during all states of reactor operation and shutdown for fuel handling, maintenance and remote inspection. This paper discusses the following NDT techniques, which have been successfully used for the past 15 years in FBTR: (i) Periscope and Projector, (ii) Core Co-ordinate Measuring Device and, (iii) Optical fiberscope. The inspection using these techniques have given confidence for further reactor operation at high power by giving useful data on the conditions of the components inside the reactor vessel.

Human language activity in the information society has been developing the communication system between humans and machines. The aim of this study was to analyze dialectal speech in Korea. One hundred Kyungsang and one hundred Cholla informants participated in this study. A CSL and Flexible laryngeal fiberscope were used for analysis of the acoustic and glottal gestures of all the vowels and consonants. Test words were made on the picture cards and letter cards which contained each vowel and each consonant, respectively. The dialogue between the examiner and the informants was recorded in a question and answer manner. The acoustic results of two dialects were as follows: Kyungsang and Cholla informants showed neutralization between /e/ and /$\varepsilon$. However, the apertures of Kyungsang vowels /i, w, u, o/ were higher than those of Cholla vowels. The /wi/ and /$\varepsilon$/ of Kyungsang Diphthong vowels were shown as simple vowels /i/ and /$\varepsilon$/ in Cholla dialect. The VOT of Cholla dilaect was longer than that of Kyungsang dialect. The fricative frequence of Kyurlgsang dialect was about 1000Hz higher than that of Cholla dialect. The glottal widths on fiberscopic images showed that the consonant durations of Kyungsang and Cholla dialects were correlated all together with the acoustic duration on the spectrogram.

Visually guided irrigation and lysis(VGIL) using temporomandibular joint(TMJ) arthroscope is useful for decreasing pain and increasing the functional mobility of TMJ. Also it demonstrated similar effectiveness comparing with arthrocentesis. Arthroscopy permits intracapsular inspection that is imperative not only for identification of morphological characteristics of joint space, but also for adequate irrigation and lysis of specific joint space. Conventional 2.3mm diameter arthroscope with 2.7mm catheter was too wide. So it was traumatic and uncomfortable to manipulate on temporomandibular joint space, especially on TMJ internal derangement patient with reduced space. We report our clinical experience on 6 TMJ closed lock patients who were treated with new 1.2mm fiberscope at Chung Hoon Dental Clinic between March 2003 and August 2003. Also we present clinical advantage & disadvantage of new system with literature review.

대장내시경검사는 역사적으로 돌아보면 원래 히포크라테스의 치루치료과정에서 직장경 사용으로부터 유래되며 그 후 Kelly의 25 cm 표준 S상 결장경의 발견으로 진전되었고 조명 및 각종 부속기구들이 많이 개선되면서 직장암의 발견에 기여해 왔다. 1911년에 독일 뮌헨의 Michael Hoffman이라는 광학 기술자가 프리즘을 여러 개를 연결하면 직선이 아닌 곡선에서도 빛을 그대로 전달할 수 있다는 사실을 발견하였고 이를 기초로 하여 1958년에 미국에서 Hirschowitz가 처음으로 섬유경(fiberscope)을 선보였고 그 이후 이용한 상부소화관에 대한 내시경 기술이 급속히 발전하기 시작하였고, 이를 기초로 1969년부터 ACMI, Olympus, Fujinon, Pentax 등 세계 유수의 내시경 회사들이 대장내시경을 제작하기 시작하였다. 1983년에 미국의 Welch-Allyn사가 CCD(Charge Coupled Device)라는 집광 장치를 만들어서 마치 내시경의 눈과 같은 작용을 해서 이것을 내시경 선단에 장치하고 전파를 이용하여 영상을 전달하여 이 상이 TV 모니터에 비치는 것을 보게 되는 전자내시경을 개발하여 현재는 상부내시경 뿐 아니라 대장내시경도 대부분이 전자 내시경으로 대체되어서 오늘에 이르고 있다.

Awake fiberoptic nasotracheal intubation is a useful technique, especially in patients with airway obstruction. It must not only provide sufficient anesthesia, but also maintain spontaneous breathing. We introduce a method to achieve this using a small dose of fentanyl and midazolam in combination with topical anesthesia. The cases of 2 patients (1 male, 1 female) who underwent oral maxillofacial surgery are reported. They received $50{\mu}g$ of fentanyl 2-3 times (total $2.2-2.3{\mu}g/kg$) at intervals of approximately 2 min. Oxygen was administered via a mask at 6 L/min, and 0.5 mg of midazolam was administered 1-4 times (total 0.02-0.05 mg/kg) at intervals of approximately 2 min. A tracheal tube was inserted through the nasal cavity after topical anesthesia was applied to the epiglottis, vocal cords, and into the trachea through the fiberscope channel. All patients were successfully intubated. This is a useful and safe method for awake fiberoptic nasotracheal intubation.

The goal of this study was to investigate acoustic and physiologic characteristics of two phonation types of 'Khoomei' which is a traditional singing style of people who live around the Altai mountains or Mongolia region. It can be produced two pitches simultaneously - high melody pitch can be perceived along with a low drone pitch. Sygyt and kargyraa styles are the most popular and identifiable styles and they can be recognized as the different sounds depending on the method of voice production. Two trained Mongolians participated and have used at least 5 - 6 years. The characteristics of this voice production were measured by using flexible fiberscope, Stroboscopy, Lx Speech studio, Spead, and Doctor Speech. In Sygyt style, very high vocal fold closure (71.50%) with both true and false vocal folds contact and strong breathing support was observed. They also showed that tongue height and harmonics were increased (around 10dB) with resonance cavity movement. In contrast, it was found that Kargyraa sound had very low pitch with relaxed stomach, less laryngeal tension and lower vocal fold contact (69.50%) than hard Sygyt style sound without raising the tongue during phonation. 'Khoomei' phonation can be made by strong contact of both true and false vocal folds and by increasing the harmonics as well.

Speech characteristics of patients with cleft palates are resonance disorders, articulatory disorders and voice disorders. The purpose of this study is to find the acoustic, physiological and articulatory characteristics of cleft palate speakers. Thirteen control groups and 3 cleft palate patients participated in this experiment. Test words were composed of simple vowels and consonants imbedded in low vowel /a/, /p 'ap'i/ and /sasi/ according to the evaluation experiments. CSL, Video fluoroscopy, Fiberscope and Nasometer were used to analyze VOT, vowel formants, profiles of articulator, VP port images and nasalance. The results are as follows : (1) The nasalance of cleft palate patients in the high vowel /i/, stop sounds and fricative sounds were 60%, 34.8% and 44.1%, respectively. These values were higher than those of the control group. (2) Posterior articulatory movements /k'a/ in patients with cleft palates showed backward movement in comparison with the control group on Video Fluoroscopic images and palatograms. These results suggested that patients with cleft palate have the compensatory oral sounds to close the VP port. (3) The VOT in patients with cleft palates was longer than that of the control group.
