Objectives: Cancer is the most frequent cause of death in Korea. Cancer screenings can save lives through early detection and their effect can be enhanced by regular repeat adherence rather than one-time screening. The aim of this study was to investigate major cancer screening rates and the reasons for not having screening for providing the basic data required. Materials and Methods: The study sample were recruited from the parents of students in 3 different middle and high schools in Pusan. 428 participants(l93 of males, 214 of females) completed a structured self-administered questionnaire from Dec. 21 to 31, 2001 and the response rate was 73.8%. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics with SPSS Win 10.0. Results: The cancer screening rates of the subjects(male and female respectively) who have had one or more in their life-time were about 36.3% and 34.6% in gastroendoscopy for stomach cancer, about 11.1 % and 8.5% in stool hemocult test and colonoscopy for colon cancer, 13.5% and 9.3% in prostate-antigen test and rectal digit exam for prostate cancer, 36.4% in mammograpy for breast cancer, and 59.3% in Pap smear test for cervical cancer. And the higher proportions of having regular screening were 36.0% in Pap smear test for cervical cancer and 11.7% in mammograpy for breast cancer. The reasons related to not having screening tests were found that ‘seem to be healthy’ was 44.8%∼58.9% and the most common reason and the following was ‘not having opportunity for check-up’. The most common reason related to not having regular screening tests were ‘for the finding of previous check-up was normal’.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women worldwide. In Korea, breast cancer is most common cancer in women followed by thyroid cancer. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possibility of using deep - run model for segmentation of breast masses and to identify the best deep-run model for breast mass segmentation. In this study, data of patients with breast masses were collected at Asan Medical Center. We used 596 images of mammography and 596 images of gold standard. In the area of interest of the medical image, it was cut into a rectangular shape with a margin of about 10% up and down, and then converted into an 8-bit image by adjusting the window width and level. Also, the size of the image was resampled to $150{\times}150$. In Deconvolution net, the average accuracy is 91.78%. In U-net, the average accuracy is 90.09%. Deconvolution net showed slightly better performance than U-net in this study, so it is expected that deconvolution net will be better for breast mass segmentation. However, because of few cases, there are a few images that are not accurately segmented. Therefore, more research is needed with various training data.

본 연구는 유방촬영실 내에서 제어기가 위치하는 공간에 대한 선량평가를 실시하여 방사선관계종사자에 대한 피폭을 저감화 할 수 있는 방안에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 연구결과 제어기가 위치하는 공간에 차폐문이 없을 경우 6.18 mGy/year의 선량이 측정되었으며, 차폐문을 설치할 경우 2.35E-11 mGy/year의 선량이 측정되었다. 또한 X선관의 양극 방향이 제어기를 향하고 있을 경우, 평균 0.30 mGy/year 정도 낮게 측정되었다. 이를 바탕으로 유방촬영 장치 설치 시 양극과 음극 방향을 고려하여야 하며, 촬영공간과 제어공간을 완벽히 분리할 수 있는 차폐문을 설치하는 것이 방사선관계종사자에게 있어서 가장 좋은 방사선 방어 방법으로 판단된다.

Purpose : Cancer is th e most frequent cause of death in Korea. Cancer screening can save lives through early detection. This study was to investigate major cancer screening rates and the reasons for not having been screening. Method : 210 participants of registered nurses from 5 general hospitals in Busan, Korea were completed a structured self-administered questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics with SPSS WIN 10.0. Results : The cancer screening rates of the subjects were 53.8% in Pap smear test for cervical cancer, 41.0% in gastroendoscopy for stomach cancer, 15.7% in mammograpy for breast cancer, and 3.8% in colonoscopy. And the higher proportions of having regular screening were 9, 5% in Pap smear test and 2.9% in gastroendoscopy. The primary reason related to not having a screening test was 'seems to be healthy'. Conclusion : The findings showed the necessity of recognizing and educating Korean nurses to have a regular cancer screening for their health management.

유방 X선촬영검사에서 환자가 받는 피폭선량과 장치의 이용 현황을 조사하기 위하여, 대한병원협회에 등록된 전국의 278개 의료기관(종합병원)에 설문지를 발송하여 설문에 응답한 161개 의료기관의 자료를 분석하였다. 조사 결과, 평균유선선량은 0.5 mGy 이하 14.9%, $0.51{\sim}1.0\;mGy$ 8.6%, $1.01{\sim}1.5\;mGy$ 14.9%, $1.51{\sim}2.0\;mGy$ 11.1%, $2.01{\sim}2.5\;mGy$ 9.8%, $2.51{\sim}3.0\;mGy$ 33.3%, 3.01 mGy 이상 7.4%이었다. 92.6%가 3 mGy 이하로 조사되었으며, 식품의약품안정청이 정한 평균유선선량 한도치인 3 mGy 근사값을 응답한 곳이 많았다. 최근, ICRP 등 방사선 방어 관련 국제기구는 유방 X선 촬영에서 평균유선선량을 성인 환자(50%지방, 50%유선)에 대해서 Mo target+Mo filter, 필름/스크린 시스템, 상하방향 촬영에서 4.2 cm로 압박된 유방에 대해서 1방향 3 mGy 이하로 제시하고 있으며, 점차 2 mGy, 또는 1.5 mGy로 낮추어 엄격하게 권고하고 있다. 따라서, 우리나라에서 유방 X선 촬영검사를 시행함에 있어 환자에 대한 피폭선량을 감소하기 위한 관심과 대책이 절실하게 요구된다. 아울러, 이번 조사를 바탕으로 의료기관의 유방 X선촬영 시 피폭선량을 실측하여 우리나라의 유방 X선촬영 시 환자피폭선량의 기준을 개발하기 위한 연구를 계속할 예정이다.
