The diagnosis and treatment of early gastrointestinal cancers is the gastroenterologists' mission because of national cancer screening program in South Korea. The detection of early cancers is emphasized, because these were previously treated with surgical treatment can be currently cured with endoscopic treatment. Gastroenterologists who achieved at least on some level can make an exact diagnosis regardless of what type of endoscopy, but generally, there are some required conditions for an optimal diagnosis. First, clinically important lesions have to be detected easily. Second, the border and morphology of lesions have to be characterized easily. Third, lesions have to be diagnosed exactly. Precancers and early cancers are often subtle and can pose a challenge to gastroenterologists to visualize using standard white light endoscopy. The use of dye solutions aids the diagnosis of early gastrointestinal cancers, however, it is a quite cumbersome to use dye solutions all the time and the solution often bothers the exact observation by pooling into the depression or ulceration of the lesion. To overcome this weakness, newer endoscopes are now developed so called "image enhanced endoscopy" using optical and/or electronic methods such as narrow band imaging (NBI), autofluorescence imaging (AFI), i-scan, flexible spectral imaging color enhancement (FICE) and confocal endomicroscopy (CLE).

The aramid fiber reinforced metal laminates(AFRMLs) used for the wing part fair flight suffer the cyclic bending moment of variable amplitude during service. The fatigue crack propagation and delamination behavior in AFRMLs containing a saw-cut and circular hole was investigated using the average stress criterion(ASC) model. Mechanical tests were carried out using the cyclic bending moment of 4.9 N . m and delamination was observed by ultrasonic C-scan images. In case of AFRMLs containing a saw-cut fatigue crack propagated in aluminum matrix, inducing delamination. However, in case of AFRMLs containing a circular hole, delamination formed with two types under cyclic bending moment of 4.9 N . m. First, delamination formed along the fatigue crack in aluminum matrix. Second, delamination formed without any fatigue crack around the circular hole. Therefore, delamination was formed depending on the stress distribution near the circular hole.

목적: 손쉽고 빠른 시간 안에 시행 가능한 Tc-99m을 이용할 갑상선 스캔을 시행하여 I-131 진단적 전신영상을 대체할 수 있는지에 대해 전향적으로 평가하였다. 대상 및 방법: 분화된 유두상 갑상선암으로 진단되어 갑상선 전절제술을 시행한 후 갑상선 잔여조직의 완전한 제거를 위하여 방사선 옥소 치료를 위해 의뢰된 21명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. Tc-99m을 이용한 영상은 Tc-99m 10 mCi (370 MBq)를 정맥 주사한 후 10분 뒤 pinhole 영상을 목 부위에서 얻었고 가슴과 목을 포함한 평면영상을 얻었다. 진단적 I-131 스캔 영상은 Tc-99m 영상을 얻은 후 곧바로 I-131 2 mCi (74MBq)를 복용 시켰으며 복용 후 2일이 경과된 다음 Tc-99m와 같은 방법으로 영상을 얻었다. 또한 모든 환자에서 치료용량의 방사성 옥소를 투여 후 7일 째 치료적 I-131 스캔을 얻었다. 결과: 1) Tc-99m 스캔과 I-131 스캔의 비교 Tc-99m 평면영상은 19명에서 I-l3l 진단 스캔은 13명에서 시행되었다. 이 중 Tc-99m 평면영상에서 3 환자(16%)는 스캔상 아무런 섭취소견을 보이지 않아 민감도는 84%를 보였다. 그러나 I-131 진단 스캔에서는 모든 환자에서 섭취를 보여 100% 민감도를 보였다. Tc-99m 평면영상에서 보이지 않던 3명의 환자의 I-131 진단 스캔상의 섭취는 2명은 경도의 섭취를 1명은 중등도 섭취를 보였다. 2) Tc-99m pinhole영상과 I-131 pinhole 영상의 비교 Tc-99m pinhole 영상은 20명에서 I-131 pinhole 스캔은 10명에서 시행되었다. Tc-99m pinhole 영상에서 검사를 시행한 20명에서 1명을 제외한 19명에서 양성소견을 보여 민감도는 95%였으며 이들의 목 부위의 섭취 정도는 19명 중 3명에서 경도 섭취를, 7명에서 중등도 섭취를 그리고 9명은 강한 섭취를 보였다. 또한 Tc-99m 평면영상에서 섭취가 없었던 2명의 환자는 Tc-99m pinhole 영상에서 경도의 섭취를 보였으나 1명은 섭취가 없었다. 결론: 간편하게 시행할 수 있는 Tc-99m 스캔상 갑상선 섭취가 관찰될 경우 I-131 진단적 스캔을 생략하고 방사성옥소 치료를 시행할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 그러나 Tc-99m 스캔에서 음성인 경우와 전이된 예에 대한 연구가 추가적으로 필요할 것으로 보인다.

인덱스는 데이터 검색을 빠르게 하기 위하여 사용되며, 많은 데이터를 저장하는 대용량 데이터베이스 시스템은 B+-tree 인덱스를 주로 사용한다. B-tree 인덱스를 사용하여 범위 검색을 수행하는 경우 레코드 각각에 대하여 I/O를 요청함으로써 프로세스가 자주 대기(waiting) 상태가 되어 많은 오버헤드가 발생하였다. 이러한 문제를 해결하고자 본 논문에서 비동기 복수 I/O 인덱스 스캔방법을 제안한다. 비동기 복수 I/O 인덱스 스캔이 최고 6.5배 빠른 성능을 보였다.

The proliferation of video streaming services has led to a need for flexible networking protocols. As a result, the Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (MPEG-DASH) protocol has emerged as a dominant streaming protocol due to its ability to dynamically adjust playback bitrates according to the end-user's network conditions. In this paper, we propose a novel I/O scheduling scheme tailored for the storage of MPEG-DASH-enabled video servers. Using the renowned rate-reservation (RR) algorithm and bulk-SCAN mechanism, our proposed scheme improves storage bandwidth utilization while ensuring seamless playback of streams with varying bitrates. In addition, we provide a mechanism for reclaiming the idle I/O time typically incurred while retrieving video segments from storage. Consequently, our scheme offers practical solutions for reducing the storage costs of MPEG-DASH video servers. With a simple cost model, we evaluate the performance enhancements achieved by our proposed I/O scheduling scheme.

The fuselage-wing intersection suffers from the cyclic bending moment of variable amplitude. Therefore, the influence of cyclic bending moment on the delamination and the fatigue crack propagation behavior in AFRP/Al laminate of fuselage-wing was investigated in this study. The cyclic bending moment fatigue test in AFRP/Al laminate was performed with five levels of bending moment. The shape and size of the delamination Lone formed along the fatigue crack between aluminum sheet and aramid fiber-adhesive layer were measured by an ultrasonic C-scan. The relationships between da/dN and ΔK, between the cyclic bending moment and the delamination zone size, and between the fiber bridging behavior and the delamination zone were studied. As results, fiber failures were not observed in the delamination zone in this study, the fiber bridging modification factor increases and the fatigue crack growth rate decrease and the shape of delamination zone is semi-elliptic with the contour decreasing non-linearly toward the crack tip.

This paper presents experimental optimization of process parameters for a newly developed SFF(Solid Freeform Fabrication) system. Two critical process parameters, layering thickness and curing period, which have a large effect on the quality of the product, are optimized through experiments. Specimens are produced using layering thicknesses of 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, and $160\;{\mu}m$ and curing periods of 0, 10, 20, and 30 minutes under the same processing conditions, i.e., build-room temperature, feed-room temperature, roller speed, laser power, scan speed, and scan spacing. The specimens are tested to compare and analyze performance indices such as thickness accuracy, flatness, stress-strain characteristics, and porosity. The experimental result indicates that layering thickness of $80{\sim}100\;{\mu}m$ and curing period of $20{\sim}30$ minutes are recommended for the developed industrial SFF system.

The objective of this study is to classify somatotypes of back-surface shape of women in their late 20s by using 3D body scan data(Size Korea 2010) in order to improve fitness of Hanbok Jeogori. The results were as follows: 1. According to the in-depth survey of the experienced expert's interview, most problems related to the fit were caused by the back area of Jeogori. 2. The result of factor analysis indicated that 6 factors were extracted and those factors comprised 82.85% of total variance. 3. According to the cluster analysis, back somatotypes of women in their late 20s were categorized by two types : straight type(54.1%) and bending type(46.9%). The results could be used as the Hanbok Jeogori to improve the fitness of back-surface shape.

Salivary scan and stimulated salivary clearance of $^{99m}Tc-pertechnetate$ was performed in 11 pateients with $Sj\"{o}gren$ syndrome (group I), 4 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (group II), 8 patients with non-connective tissue diseases (group III) and 9 normal controls. Stimulated salivary clearances of pertechnetate of normal controls, group II and group III were in normal range (over 16.5 ml/min) and that of patients with $Sj\"{o}gren's$ syndrome was significantly reduced (11.1 ml/min).

The objective of this phantom study is to develop a digital method for improving the lateral resolution of B-scan ultrasonographic images irs medical application of ultrasound. By utilizing a discrete state-space modeling approach and Kalman-Buch method for analysis of the transducer's beam profile and the measurement and sampling noise, a stable recursive restoration of the object image was obtained for improved lateral resolution. The point spread function (PSF) was measured for the reflective signals after scanning the small pins located along the depth of interest. One major advantage of the present recursive scheme over the transform method is in its applicability for the space-variant imaging, such as in the case of the rotational movement of transducer.
