Purpose: This study is to decide a quality control and calibration period of LCD display devices used for reading diagnostic images. Materias and Methods: The assessment test of 20 flat panel LCD color display devices used for reading diagnostic images were performed based on AAPM TG 18 protocol over the total six sessions at one month intervals from three months after primary calibration, in terms of geometric distortion, reflection test, luminance response evaluation, luminance uniformity, resolution, noise, veiling glare and chromaticity test. Results: The results of geometric distortion, reflection test, luminance uniformity, resolution, noise, veiling glare and chromaticity test were within the criteria recommended by AAPM TG 18, except for luminance response evaluation. In the measured luminance deviation of luminance response evaluation, 4(25%) of 20 display devices were passed a criterion from four months after calibration, and 11 (55%) were passed from eight months. Also in the contrast response of the luminance response evaluation, 1(5%) display device was passed a criterion from four months after calibration, and 3(15%) were passed from eight months. Conclusion: Considering the passing deviation after calibration, the time required and a manpower, the quality control and calibration period of LCD display devices used for reading diagnostic images should be a three months and six months after calibration.

The Film X-ray and the CCD method of current medical image system have the disadvantages such as required large place and diagnosis time. In this paper, we implement an effective medical image system using TXT-DXD method's digital X-ray detector(DR1000C). The implemented medical image system has advantages of placing efficiency and short diagnosis time. In order to make the image out of the system more effective, we develop an LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) control driver, having the resolution of 1900*1200. And we propose an enhancement unsharp masking method to update image enhancement of DR1000C medical image system, and compare it with the current methods.

In this paper we implemented a field-sequential stereoscopic endoscope system that can generate stereoscopic images with different perspective depth using LCD stutter. Re stereoscopic image is generated from stereoscopic adapter that has LCD shutter. We have compared the stereoscopic depth of a field-sequential stereoscopic endoscope system with that of the conventional endoscope system. And the implemented system is verified by evaluation the field-sequential stereoscopic image on a Monitor. This system will be use to medical instruments in time.

For using them as a optical source of inspections equipment for LCD panel, the design ofexcellent backlight system, brightness uniformity and high power and good protection against heat is essential.In this paper, backlight system which is built in the 45 inch side emitting LCD backlight by LED arraystructure and driving circuit were designed and developed. After that, their performances were measured. Itshowed the luminance from 3,000 to 25,000[$cd/m^2$], the mean value x:0.3144, y:0.3076 of x-y chromaticity,dimming range of 27~515[$cd/m^2$], free flicker noise in the 80kHz and black level of 0.7~0.1[$cd/m^2$], thermaltest of cooling system in 20,000[$cd/m^2$] over values.

TFT, LCD, OLED, PDP and FED를 비롯한 많은 디스플레이 장치가 개발, 연구되고 있으며, 이러한 디스플레이 장치에 대한 수 많은 application 연구 또한 진행되고 있다. TFT-LCD는 이미 방사선 검출기로서 연구가 오랜전에 연구되어 상용화가 되었으며, LCD는 XLV로서 적용을 위한 연구가 진행되고 있으며, 그 외 수 많은 디스플레이 장치에 대한 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있는 실정이다. PDP는 대면적, 낮은 제작 비용, 높은 contrast의 이점으로 디스플레이 장치로서 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 PDP를 처음으로 방사선 검출기로 적용하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 제작된 7 인치 AC-PDP는 다양한 가스종류 및 압력을 가진 300um의 pixel pitch룰 가진 3 전극 구조로서, coplanar readout과 대항형 readout을 통해 신호량을 분석하였다. 결과 50-100Kvp의 진단 영역의 X-ray energy에서 줄은 민감도와 훌륭한 선형성을 보였으며, 가스 종류 및 압력, 신호 검출방식에 따라 각각 다른 특성을 보였다. 이는 PDP 내 X선과의 Interaction, R/O method. Material에 강하게 의존한다.

The principal objective of this study was to assess the effects of low-calorie diets(LCD) for 8 weeks of medical nutrition therapy in individuals with BMI in excess of $23\;kg/m^2$. 41 over-weight or obese individuals (male=14, female=27, age $28.6{\pm}8.9\;yrs$), none of whom were diagnosed with a medical disease, were administered MNT 4 times over the study period. Approximately $1,100{\sim}1,300\;kcal/day$ were prescribed by a dietitian, via individualized counseling. Anthropometric parameters, daily nutrient intake, and blood levels of leptin, insulin, and lipid profiles were measured prior to and after the 8 weeks of the intervention period. We noted significant reductions in body weight, body mass index (BMI), fat mass (FM), visceral adipose tissue (VAT), abdominal skin-fold thickness, and waist circumference in both men and women. The mean body weight losses in men and women were $3.2{\pm}0.6\;kg$/8 weeks and $2.8{\pm}0.6\;kg$/8 weeks, respectively. However, the % of lean body mass (LBM) in men and women was shown to increase significantly (p<0.05). The daily intake of calorie, fat, protein, vitamin E, folate, and iron were significantly reduced during the LCD period. Blood levels of lipids and glucose were in normal range, and evidenced no changes after LCD. However, the serum levels of leptin in female subjects were significantly reduced (p<0.00l) from $8.9{\pm}4.8\;ng/mL$ to $6.9{\pm}4.8\;ng/mL$. In conclusion, 8 weeks of LCD with individualized counseling by a dietitian effectively reduced body fat and visceral fat in both men and women with BMI in excess of $23\;kg/m^2$.

This paper describes a new ECG monitor that has a TFT LCD panel as its display unit. The monitor is thinner, smaller and lighter than most commonly used CRT-based monitors. In addition to portability, the system can be expanded to measure blood pressure and oxygen saturation through its flexible design.

LEDs are using widely in a field of illumination, LCD LED backlight, mobile signals because they have several merits, such as low power consumption, long lifetime, high brightness, fast response, environment friendly. To achieve high performance LEDs, one needs to enhance output power, reduce operation voltage, and improve device reliability. In this paper, we have proposed that the optimum design and specialized process could improve the performance of LED chip. It was showed an output power of 7cd and input supplied voltage of 3.2V by the insertion technique of current blocking layer. In this paper, GaN-based LED chip which is built on the sapphire epi-wafer by selective MOCVD were designed and developed. After that, their performances were measured. It showed the output power of 7cd more than conventional GaN-based chip. It will be used the lighting source of a medical equipment and LCD LED TV with GaN-based LED chip.
