The restoration of extensive zygomatic complex defects is a surgical challenge owing to the difficulty of accurately restoring the normal anatomy, symmetry, proper facial projection and facial width. In the present study, an extensive post-traumatic zygomatic bone defect was reconstructed using a custom-made implant that was made with a selective laser melting (SLM) technique. The computer-designed implant had the proper geometry and fit perfectly into the defect without requiring any intraoperative adjustments. A one-year follow-up revealed a stable outcome with no complications.

This paper proposes a robust, simple zonal wavefront-estimation method in a grid sampling model. More slopes are added to the integral equation of the algorithm to improve the accuracy and convergence rate of this approach, especially for higher-order optical aberrations. The Taylor theorem is applied to clarify the mathematical description of the remaining error in the proposed method. Several numerical simulations are conducted to ensure the performance and improvement in comparison to the Southwell and previous algorithm. An experiment is also conducted according to deflectometry output and the results are verified using a reference measured with a stylus system.

This study examined changes in airway airflow characteristics before and after extensive surgery for tongue cancer, which includes neck dissection and reconstruction. Pre- and post-operative CBCT scans were used to model 3D upper airways. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations analyzed airflow and pressure variations. Results showed a significant reduction in airway volume post-surgery, especially in the posterior tongue and epiglottis areas, leading to increased airflow velocity and complex vortex formations. Pressure drop analysis revealed that post-surgery, higher negative pressure is required for inhalation, indicating increased breathing effort. This suggests that the surgical removal of cancerous tissues and lymph nodes, along with reconstruction, alters airway geometry significantly, potentially impacting respiratory function. The findings highlight the clinical importance of assessing airway changes in tongue cancer surgery to anticipate and mitigate postoperative respiratory complications.

Background: The effects of radiation on the health of radiation workers who are constantly susceptible to occupational exposure must be assessed based on an accurate and reliable reconstruction of organ-absorbed doses that can be calculated using personal dosimeter readings measured as H_p(10) and dose conversion coefficients. However, the data used in the dose reconstruction contain significant biases arising from the lack of reality and could result in an inaccurate measure of organ-absorbed doses. Therefore, this study quantified the biases involved in organ dose reconstruction and calculated the bias-corrected H_p(10)-to-organ-absorbed dose coefficients for the use in epidemiological studies of Korean radiation workers. Materials and Methods: Two major biases were considered: (a) the bias in H_p(10) arising from the difference between the dosimeter calibration geometry and the actual exposure geometry, and (b) the bias in air kerma-to-H_p(10) conversion coefficients resulting from geometric differences between the human body and slab phantom. The biases were quantified by implementing personal dosimeters on the slab and human phantoms coupled with a Monte Carlo method and considered to calculate the bias-corrected H_p(10)-to-organ-absorbed dose conversion coefficients. Results and Discussion: The bias in H_p(10) was significant for large incident angles and low energies (e.g., 0.32 for right lateral at 218 keV), whereas the bias in dose coefficients was significant for the posteroanterior (PA) geometry only (e.g., 0.79 at 218 keV). The bias-corrected H_p(10)-to-organ-absorbed dose conversion coefficients derived in this study were up to 3.09- fold greater than those from the International Commission on Radiological Protection publications without considering the biases. Conclusion: The obtained results will aid future studies in assessing the health effects of occupational exposure of Korean radiation workers. The bias-corrected dose coefficients of this study can be used to calculate organ doses for Korean radiation workers based on personal dose records.

Terrain reconstruction from images is an ill-posed, yet commonly desired Structure from Motion task when compositing visual effects into live-action photography. These surfaces are required for choreography of a scene, casting physically accurate shadows of CG elements, and occlusions. We present a novel framework for generating the geometry of landscapes from extremely noisy point cloud datasets obtained via limited resolution techniques, particularly optical flow based vision algorithms applied to live-action video plates. Our contribution is a new statistical approach to remove erroneous tracks ('outliers') by employing a unique combination of well established techniques-including Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) for robust parameter estimation and Radial Basis Functions (REFs) for scattered data interpolation-to exploit the natural constraints of this problem. Our algorithm offsets the tremendously laborious task of modeling these landscapes by hand, automatically generating a visually consistent, camera position dependent, thin-shell surface mesh within seconds for a typical tracking shot.

This paper describes the surface form measurement of a spherical smooth surface by using single shot off-axis Fizeau interferometry. The demodulated phase map is obtained and unwrapped to remove the $2\pi$ ambiguity. The unwrapped phase map is converted to height and the 3D surface height of the surface object is reconstructed. The results extracted from the single shot off-axis geometry are compared with the results extracted from four-frame phase shifting in-line interferometry, and the results are in excellent agreement.

본 논문은 스테레오 정합(stereo matching)과 마칭큐브(marching cube)알고리즘을 통합하는 효과적인 알고리즘을 제안한다. 여러 각도에서 획득한 영상에 대해 스테레오 정합 기술을 적용하여 3차원 형상 데이타를 획득하고 카메라 외부 파라미터를 이용하여 결합하였다. 결합된 데이타를 영상 색인을 이용하여 메쉬로 재구성한 다음 각 점에 해당하는 법선벡터를 획득하고 메쉬 평탄화(mesh smooth)의 과정을 거쳐서 데이타를 부드럽게 처리하였다. 본 논문은 3차원 메쉬 재구성에 대한 일련의 과정 및 기술을 서술하였으며, 기존의 마칭큐브 알고리즘에서 생기는 3차원 데이타의 불안정에 대한 문제를 중간 등위면(iso-surface) 알고리즘을 제안하여 개선하였다.

Nearfield acoustic holography method predicts an unmeasured sound field, therefore it depends on its prediction methods. In particular, if one has radiators or scatters, which cannot be expressed by simple geometry, then inverse boundary element method (BEM) is normally employed to reconstruct the sound field induced by sound sources with irregular profiles. The characteristics of boundary element, including the element shape, characteristic length, order of shape function and others, affect the reconstruction error. Investigating the errors by means of changing these factors will provide a guide line for selecting appropriate factors, associated with the elements of BEM. These factors are investigated by numerical simulations, and the accuracies with respect to the variant factors are compared. Novel suggestions for selecting appropriate boundary element factors are described based on the simulation results.

CT에서 대수적재구성기법은 잡음에 강점을 가지는 재구성기법으로 알려져 있다. 대수적재구성기법에서 반복 횟수는 계산 시간을 결정하는 중요한 인자 중의 하나이다. 그러나 반복 횟수에 대한 기준이 연구되어 있지만 수백 번 이상의 반복을 수행하게 되어 현실적으로 사용하기에는 무리가 있었다. 본 연구에서는 반복 횟수를 결정할 수 있는 현실적인 방법을 제시하였다. 반복 횟수에 따라 단면 영상의 품질이 천천히 개선된다는 것을 이용하였다. 반복 횟수를 절대치 평균 오차의 차이 𝜖 < 0.001 로 선택하였다. 잡음이 없는 경우는 Shepp-Logan 두부 팬텀을 이용하였고 잡음이 있는 경우는 Geant4를 이용하여 다양한 입사광자에 대해 360, 720, 1,440개의 투영을 얻었다. 정지 조건에서 10회 내외의 반복으로 우수한 단면 영상을 획득하였다. 수 백회 이상을 반복하는 최적 영상기반의 방법에 비해 현실적으로 적용 가능성이 높은 방법이 될 수 있을 것이다.

In this paper, we researched optical characteristics of a holographic optical security system using a reflection recording material and optical random phase mask. The system have the property of optical security key with the phase mask. Also, a reflection recording geometry can reduced a size of the reconstruction system because a input beam to reconstruct a holographic image and a diffraction beam are the same side on the material.
