Because the tongue is superficially located and the initial manifestation of most diseases occurring there is mucosal change, lingual lesionscan be easily accessed and diagnosed without imaging analysis. Some lingual neoplasms, however, may manifest as a submucosal bulge and be located in a deep portion of the tongue, such as its base; their true characteristics and extent may be recognized only on cross-sectional images such as those obtained by CT or MRI. Some uncommon tongue neoplasms may have characteristic radiologic features, thus permitting quite specific radiologic diagnosis. Lipomas typically manifest at both CT and MR imaging as homogeneous nonenhancing lesions. Relative to subcutaneous fat they are isoattenuating on CT images, and all MR sequences show them as isointense. Due to the paramagnetic properties of melanin, metastases from melanotic melanoma usually demonstrate high signal intensity on T1-weighted MR images and low signal intensity on T2-weighted images. Although the radiologic findings for other submucosal neoplasms are nonspecific, CT and MR imaging can play an important role in the diagnostic work-up of these unusual tumors. Delineation of the extent of the tumor, and recognition and understanding of the spectrum of imaging and the pathologic features of these lesions, often help narrow the differential diagnosis.

A connected control method for the adjacent buildings has been studied to reduce dynamic responses. In these studies, seismic loads were generally used as an excitation. Recently, multi-hazards loads including earthquake and strong wind loads are employed to investigate control performance of various control systems. Accordingly, strong wind load as well as earthquake load was adopted to evaluate control performance of adaptive smart coupling control system against multi-hazard. To this end, an artificial seismic load in the region of strong seismicity and an artificial wind load in the region of strong winds were generated for control performance evaluation of the coupling control system. Artificial seismic and wind excitations were made by SIMQKE and Kaimal spectrum based on ASCE 7-10. As example buildings, two 20-story and 12-story adjacent buildings were used. An MR (magnetorheological) damper was used as an adaptive smart control device to connect adjacent two buildings. In oder to present nonlinear dynamic behavior of MR damper, Bouc-Wen model was employed in this study. After parametric studies on MR damper capacity, optimal command voltages for MR damper on each seismic and wind loads were investigated. Based on numerical analyses, it was shown that the adaptive smart coupling control system proposed in this study can provide very good control performance for Multi-hazards.

지진하중이 가해지는 구조물의 동적응답을 줄이기 위해서 면진장치가 널리 사용되고 있다. 근래에 들어서는 면진층의 변위를 증가시키지 않으면서도 면진된 구조물의 동적응답을 효과적으로 줄일 수 있는 스마트 면진시스템에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 지진하중을 받는 아치구조물의 동적응답을 저감시키기 위하여 스마트 면진시스템을 적용하였고 제어성능을 검토하였다. 스마트 면진시스템을 구성하기 위하여 4kN 용량의 MR 감쇠기와 저감쇠 탄성 고무베어링을 사용하였다. 제안된 스마트 면진시스템의 제어성능을 검토하기 위하여 최적설계된 LRB와 지진응답 제어성능을 비교하였다. 이를 위하여 KBC2009 설계응답스펙트럼에 맞추어 생성한 인공지진파를 지진하중으로 사용하였다. 스마트 면진시스템의 MR 감쇠기를 제어하기 위하여 퍼지제어기를 사용하였으며, 다목적 유전자알고리즘을 이용하여 최적화하였다. 수치해석결과 스마트 면진시스템을 사용하면 LRB를 사용한 경우와 비교하여 면진층 변위와 아치구조물의 지진응답을 크게 줄일 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Uterine cervical carcinoma is one of the most common malignant tumors occurring in females. After primary treatment, patients are usually followed up with CT or MRI and the findings of these modalities may be the first sign of recurrent disease. Because earlier additional treatment by chemotherapy or radiation therapy may improve the prognosis, the early detection of recurrent cervical carcinoma is clinically important. In this article, we review the CT and MR imaging findings of recurrent uterine cervical carcinoma, and assign them to one of four groups: a) recurrence at the primary site, involving the intrapelvic organs, b) extension to the pelvic side-wall, c) metastases to pelvic and extrapelvic lymph nodes, or d) metastases to distant organs. A further contribution of CT and MR imaging is the detection of hydronephrosis due to ureteral obstruction. The cases in each group are illustrated and discussed, and since an awareness of the spectrum of imaging findings of recurrent cervical carcinoma is likely to lead to its early detection, radiologists should be familiar with the information presented.

Although the use of apodization functions in connection with postprocessing of a 2D NMR spectrum proves improved spectral quality, there is usually a trade-off between resolution enhancement and noise suppression due to a classical "uncertainty principle." In this study, therefore, a mathematical deconvolution technique called "Maximum Likelihood Deconvolution (MLD)" was adopted to achieve the spectral resolution and sensitivity enhancement simultaneously. The MLD technique greatly facilitates visualization and restoration of the genuine spectral information from complex 2D NMR spectra that would be problematic with the conventional apodization/FT processing. In particular, application of the MLD to the 2D-NOE spectrum would be very useful to derive the important proton connectivities, which are essential to achieve elucidating the 3D molecular structure.

단위용적기법(Single-Voxel Technique) 및 다용적기법(Multi-Voxel Technique)으로 얻어진 수소원자핵 자기공명분광(Proton Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy : 1H-MRS) 데이터를 고가의 특정 workstation이 아닌 일반 PC에서 처리${\cdot}$분석 할 수 있는 GUI(Graphical User Interface) 기반의 분광분석용 소프트웨어(S/W)를 개발하고 MRS 임상 데이터로 기초적인 시험을 하였다. 단위용적기법의 MRS 경우에는 시간 영역의 측정신호와 주파수 영역의 분광정보를 한 화면에 동시에 표시할 수 있게 하였고 필요에 따라 위상보정, 필터링(filtering), 퓨리에변환 등으로 후처리 한 후 생체 대사물질(metabolite) 별 MRS 피크 면적 비를 계산하여 정성분석을 하였다. 다용적기법의 MRS에서는 측정된 신호의 재배열 및 3차원 FFT로 분광영상(spectroscopic image)을 재구성하고 이를 T1-강조 또는 T2-강조 영상 위에 중첩시켜 해부학적 정보와 함께 표시할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 생체에서 대사물질에 해당하는 분광정보의 각 피크의 분포도(metabolite image)를 만들고 해부학적 영상과 중첩시켰다. 병원에 설치되어있는 MR 장치에서 정상인과 뇌에 이상이 있는 환자를 대상으로 얻은 MR 분광 데이터를 처리·분석한 결과 사용자의 편의성이 높을 뿐만 아니라 신뢰성이 우수하여 임상적 활용도가 높을 것으로 기대된다.

This study was purpose to quantitative evaluation of comparison of the image intensity uniformity and noise power spectrum (NPS) by using American college of radiology (ACR) phantom for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The MRI was used achiva 3.0T MRI and discovery MR 750, 3.0T, the head and neck matrix shim SENSE head coil were 32 channels receive MR coil. The MRI was used parameters of image sequence for ACR standard and general hospital. NPS value of the ACR standard T2 vertical image in GE equipment was 7.65E-06 when the frequency was 1.0 mm^-1. And the NPS value of the ACR hospital T1 region of interest (ROI) 9 over all vertical image in Philips equipment was 9E-08 when the frequency was 1.0 mm^-1 and the NPS value of the hospital T2 ROI 9 over all vertical image in Philips equipment was 1.06E-07 when the frequency was 1.0 mm^-1. NPS was used efficiently by using a general hospital vertical sequence more than the standard vertical sequence method by using the ACR phantom. Furthermore NPS was the quantitative quality assurance (QA) assessment method for noise and image intensity uniformity characteristics was applied mutatis mutandis, and the results values of the physical imaging NPS of the 3.0T MRI and ACR phantom were presented.

Because the tongue is superficially located and the intial manifestation of most diseases occurring there is mucosal change, lingual these lesions can be easily accessed and diagnosed without imaging analysis. Most congenital lesions of the tongue, however, can manifest as a submucosal bulge and be located in a deep portion of that organ such as its base; their true characteristics and extent may be recognized only on cross-sectional images such as those obtained by CT or MRI. In addition, because it is usually difficult to differentiate congenital lesions from other submucosal neoplasms on the basis of imaging findings alone, clinical history and physical examination should always be taken into consideration when interpretating CT and MR images of the tongue. Although the radiologic findings for congenital lesions are nonspecific, CT and MR imaging can play an important role in the diagnostic work-up of these unusual lesions. Delineation of the extent of the tumor, and recognition and understanding of the spectrum of imaging and the pathologic features of these lesions, often help narrow the differential diagnosis.

본문은 IEEE지 1970년월호 Spectrum에 나타난 서독내의 초고압송전선로에 관한 (Mr. J. Jansen)소개문으로서 철탑선로 및 애자설계에 서독기술자가 깊은 검토를 하여 서독에 알맞는 이상적인 송전망을 건설하여 왔다는 것이다. 현재 우리나라도 345kV 초고압송전망을 가까운 장래에 건설하고저 만반의 준비를 갖추고 있는 중이다. 따라서 서독의 초고압송전망에 관한 기사는 협소한 국토등 여건이 비슷한 우리에게 큰 참고가 될 부분이 많음으로 본지에 이것을 번역하여 관계기술자의 설계참고자료로 제공하고저 한다.
