Investigations of retrospective dosimetry have shown that components of mobile phones are suitable as emergency dosimeters in case of radiological incidents. For physical dosimetry, components can be read out using optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), thermoluminescence (TL) and phototransferred thermoluminescence (PTTL) methods to determine the absorbed dose. This paper deals with a feasibility study of display glass from modern mobile phones that are measured by thermally assisted (Ta) optically stimulated luminescence. Violet (VSL, 405 nm) and infrared (IRSL, 850 nm) LEDs were used for optical stimulation and two protocols (Ta-VSL and Ta-IRSL) were tested. The aim was to systematically investigate the luminescence properties, compare the results to blue stimulated Ta-BSL protocol (458 nm) and to develop a robust measurement protocol for the usage as an emergency dosimeter after an incident with ionizing radiation. First, the native signals were measured to calculate the zero dose signal. Next, the reproducibility and dose response of the luminescence signals were analyzed. Finally, the signal stability was tested after the storage of irradiated samples at room temperature. In general, the developed Ta-IRSL and Ta-VSL protocols indicate usability, however, further research is needed to test the potential of a new protocol for physical retrospective dosimetry.

New antitumor-active pt(II) complexes of trans-l-diamine cyclohexane containing diphosphines as a leaving group were synthesized. The structures of the pt(II) complexes were determined by analyzing the infrared and $^{31}P-nuclear$ magnetic resonance spectra. Antitumor activities of the pt(II) complexes were tested against murine leukemia $L_{l210}$ according to the protocol of the National Cancer Institute. All the pt(II) complexes Synthesized were antitumor-active. In particular, water-soluble $[pt(trans-l-dach) (DPPP)](NO_3)_2$ exhibited excellent antitumor activity, giving T/C % values of 341 and 356 respectively, each with four cured mice out of six at a dose of 25 mg/kg. These pt(II) complexes are considered to be worthy of further development.

To measure the size and weight of the fish, we developed an automatic fish size measurement system using a deep neural network, where the YOLO (You Only Look Once)v3 model was used. To detect fish, an IP camera with infrared function was installed over the fish pool to acquire image data and used as input data for the deep neural network. Using the bounding box information generated as a result of detecting the fish and the structure for which the actual length is known, the size of the fish can be obtained. A GUI (Graphical User Interface) program was implemented using LabVIEW and RTSP (Real-Time Streaming protocol). The automatic fish size measurement system shows the results and stores them in a database for future work.

이 연구의 목적은 indocyanine green (ICG)과 근적외선 diode 레이저의 사용이 다종 우식원성 바이오필름에 미치는 항균 효과를 조사하는 것이다. Streptococcus mutans, Lactobacillus casei, Candida albicans를 포함하는 다종 바이오필름이 ICG와 808 nm 근적외선 diode 레이저를 사용하여 서로 다른 조사 시간에 따라 처리되었다. Colony-forming unit (CFU)을 측정하였고, 바이오필름의 정성적 평가를 위해 공초점 레이저 주사 현미경(Confocal laser scanning microscopy, CLSM) 관찰을 시행하였다. 또한 광열 치료의 효과를 평가하기 위해 온도 측정이 시행되었다. ICG와 근적외선 diode 레이저를 사용한 군에서 CFU의 감소량이 통계적으로 유의하였으나, L. casei와 C. albicans에서는 시간에 따른 항균 효과의 유의한 차이는 관찰되지 않았다. CLSM 관찰에서도 유사한 세균 감소를 확인할 수 있었다. ICG와 근적외선 diode 레이저를 사용한 군은 ICG 없이 광조사를 시행한 군보다 더 높은 온도 상승을 보였으며, 측정된 온도는 열 치료의 온도 범위와 유사하였다. 결론적으로, ICG와 근적외선 diode 레이저는 다종 우식원성 바이오필름에 항균 효과를 보였다. 우식 예방을 위한 보조 수단으로 사용될 가능성을 가지나, 임상적인 적용을 위해서는 적용 프로토콜에 관한 연구가 필요하다.

In the characteristic of the brain malignant, the blood vessels and tumors have the same color and shape, and the boundary distinction is not clear, Therefore, it is difficult to observe the naked eye. Because of the high invasiveness, the risk of recurrence is high. Therefore, complete resection of the tumor is essential. The method for distinguishing the boundary between blood vessels and tumors is a fluorescence contrast method using indocyanine green (ICG), a fluorescence contrast agent. In ICG, the concentration range analysis is very important because the fluorescence expression state varies depending on the concentration. However, since the analysis result of the fluorescence expression condition is insufficient according to the current concentration, this paper proposes by analyzing the initial protocol of the concentration range. 780 nm infrared light was irradiated to the ICG sample to observe the fluorescence expression through a near infrared (NIR) camera. The wavelength is measured by using a spectrum instrument (ocean view) to observe the fluorescence expression wavelength of 811nm. As a result of analyzing the mol concentration according to each sample, the fluorescence expression range was found to be 16.15-0.16M and the optimum fluorescence concentration on the brightest part was found to be 3.23-0.81M.

근래에 들어 많은 A/V 제품들이 AVRCP의 프로파일을 적용하여 모바일 환경에 맞게 기술이 적용되고 있다. AVRCP는 고품질의 A/V 제품들을 제어하기 위한 표준인터페이스를 제공한다. 이러한 AVRCP는 A2DP와 VDP 기술과 함께 모든 A/V장비들을 손쉽게 사용할 수 있기 때문에 특히 모바일 디바이스에서 콘트롤러와 타켓을 블루투스와 함께 적용해서 활용될 수 있다. 모바일 환경에서 블루투스 기술은 이동성은 물론 소형화와 복합화를 가능케 한다. 이런 블루투스를 적용할 경우 기존의 적외선방식의 리모콘에서 수행했던 것처럼, 콘트롤러를 통해 사용자가 원하는 기능을 A/V 장비에게 손쉽게 전달할 수 있다. 이런 원격 콘트롤러는 이런 AVRCP 프로토콜을 활용해서 A/V를 제어할 수 있도록 설계되어있다. 이런 AVRCP 표준을 적용한 핸즈프리같은 제품에 일반적으로 제기되고 있는 음향반향의 문제를 제거할 수 있도록 개선된 DSP를 설계하였다.

Purpose: In recent years, guided implant surgery has been widely used for the convenience of patients and surgeons. Further streamlining the surgical procedure would make implant surgery more convenient. Low-speed water-free conditions are often used in guided implant surgery. Therefore, in this study, we attempted to confirm once again whether drilling was safe at a low speed without water. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate whether a simplified drilling protocol that omits some intermediate steps in the drilling process was safe from the viewpoint of heat generation. Methods: D1 density artificial bone blocks were drilled under 50 rpm, 10 N·cm water-free conditions, and the surface temperature was measured using a digital infrared camera. First, drilling was performed with the sequential drilling method, which is the most widely used technique. Second, for each drill diameter, the temperature change was measured while performing simplified drilling with omission of the previous 1, 2, or 3 steps. Results: In sequential drilling, the heat generated during drilling at all diameters was less than the critical temperature of osteonecrosis (47℃) except for the ⌀2 drill. Statistical significance was observed in all groups when comparing sequential and simplified drilling in the ⌀3.2, ⌀3.8, and ⌀4.3 drills (P<0.001). However, in the simplified drilling procedures, the temperature was below the osteonecrosis threshold temperature (47℃) except for the ⌀4.3 drill with the omission of the previous 3 steps (⌀3.0, ⌀3.2, and ⌀3.8). Conclusions: In general, drilling under low-speed, water-free conditions has shown stable results in terms of heat generation. Simplified drilling showed statistically significantly greater heat generation than sequential drilling. However, most of the diameters and omitted steps seem to be clinically acceptable, so it will be useful if an appropriate selection is made according to the patient's clinical condition.

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is a common musculoskeletal disorder worldwide, with a lifetime prevalence of up to 80%. Among nonsurgical treatments for chronic LBP, Korean medicine treatments are highly preferred, and pharmacopuncture therapy combining acupuncture and herbal medicine is widely used. However, no evidence-based study has focused on the use of various types of pharmacopuncture. Methods: The pragmatic randomized controlled clinical trial will include 44 participants; recruitment will start in July 2023. All participants will receive integrated Korean medicine treatment including acupuncture, cupping, and infrared therapy, and the intervention group will also receive pharmacopuncture. After 16 treatment sessions, twice a week for 8 weeks, follow-up assessments will be performed at week 9. As a pragmatic randomized controlled clinical protocol, the type, dose, and acupoints of acupuncture and pharmacopuncture are not determined in advance but are selected and recorded according to the clinical judgment of the Korean medicine doctor. Results: The primary outcome will be measured using a visual analog scale score, and the secondary outcomes include the Oswestry disability index, patient global impression of change, no worse than mild pain, and range of motion. Safety will be assessed by examining participants' self-reported adverse events and vital signs and conducting blood tests before and after the test. Conclusion: This study aims to provide clinical evidence of the effectiveness and safety of pharmacopuncture for chronic LBP.

A transcutaneoos information transmission system using transmitted infrared light for an implantable total artificial heart(TAH) an developed and the performance of the system was tested. In an in vitro test, transmittance of the developed system was measured through various thicknesses of pig shins. In an in vivo test, a loopback test using a personal computer was performed to determine the error rate and an experiment using a mock system was taken. In this experiment, within acceptable lateral and vertical displacements, the error rate of at least 3.8E-6 was guaranteed. Monitoring signals from the internal controller(Intel 87C196) of the mock system were successfully transmitted to the external controller(IBM PC) and the operating commands from the external controller were successfully conducted by the mock system. Communication was done in half duplex mode according to RS-232 protocol at the speed of 4800 bps.
