Cancer, like any disease, is a pathologic biological process. Drugs are designed to interfere with the pathologic process and should therefore also be validated using a functional screening method directed at these processes. Screening for cancers at an appropriate time and also evaluating results is also very important. Volumetric measurement helps in better screening and evaluation of tumors. Volumetry is a process of quantification of the tumors by identification (pre-cancerous or target lesion) and measurement. Volumetric image analysis allows an accurate, precise, sensitive, and medically valuable assessment of tumor response. It also helps in identifying possible outcomes such disease progression (PD) or complete response as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST).

Three groups have participated in this study. 1) The first group consists of 57 patients were who had been treated in the Oriental Medical Hospital at Kyung Hee Medical Center. 2) The second group consists of 37 outpatients who had been treated in the Oriental Medical Hospital at Kyung Hee Medical Center. 3) The third group consists of 76 students of the Oriental Medical School at Kyung Hee University. The following conclusions were made in comparison with EAV measurement values, SaSang Constitution Classfication and CVA. 1. The following conclusions were made in comparison with EAV measurement values and Type(SaSang Constitution Classfication). 1) The analsis of the Correlation in Normal group with EAV measurement values and Type(SaSang Constitution Classfication). 2) The analysis of the correlation in patient group with EAV measurement values showed significant differences in Right meridians(Nerval degeneration vessel, Circulation, Allergy) and in Left meridian(Liver). 3) The analysis of the correlation in Total(Normal+patient)group with EAV measurement values showed significant differences in Right meridians(Large intestine, Nerval degeneration vessel, Circulation, Allergy, Pancreas) and in Left meridians(Lymph vessel, Nerval degeneration vessel, Spleen, liver). 4) The above results showed common-significant differences in Right Allery meridian and in Left Liver meridian. 2. The analysis of the correlation in EAV measurement values and Group (Cerebrovascular accident) showed significant differences in Right meridians(Lymph vessel, Lung, Nerval degeneration vessel, Allergy, Paren & Epith. degeneration vessel, Triple warmer, Heart, Pancreas, Stomach, Fibroid degeneration vessel, Skin, Fatty degeneration vessel, Heart, Stomach, Fibroid degeneration vessel, Skin, Fatty degeneration vessel, Bile duct, Kidney). 3. The analysis of the correlation in EAV measurement values and Para(GROUPS according to PARALYSIS)showed significant differences in Left Stomatch meridian. The analysis of the correlation in EAV measurement values and Para(GROUPS according to PARALYSIS) about the differance of right measurement values and left measurement values showed significant differences in Nerval degeneration vessel, Stomatch, Gall bladder & Bile duct, Kidney and Urinary Bladder meridians. 4. The analysis of the correlation in EAV measurement values and Compl(GROUPS according to COMPLICATION with CVA)showed significant differences in Right meridians(Lymph vessel, Articular degeneration vessel, Fatty degeneration vessel) and in Left meridians(Lung, Stomatch, Fatty degeneration vessel). 5. The analysis of the correlation in Type and MORPHOROGICAL DIAGRAMING (HTOUPS according to MORPHOROGY) showed significant differences in Cranium region, Chest region, Stomatch region and Umbilicum region. 6. The analysis of the correlation in BAZ measurement values and Group(Cerebral Vascular Attack)showed significant differences, the analysis on the correlation of BAZ measurement values and Type(SaSang Constitution Classfication) didn't show any significant differences. 7. In comparison with Actual measurement vales and Voll's measurement values, BAZ measurement values agree with Voll's measurement values but CMP measurement values lower than the Voll's measurement values. Later We have to research further about classifications of race, age, sex etc. The EAV measurement values have Group(Cerebrovascular accident) more correlative than Type(SaSang Constitution Classfication). The EAV may well be that it will be used as an accessory method in SaSang Constitution Classfication and as a diagnostic method in medicine too.

Recent technical advancement allows noninvasive measurement of blood glucose. In this literature, we reviewed various noninvasive techniques for measuring glucose concentration. Optical or electrical methods have been investigated. Optical techniques include near-infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, optical coherence technique, polarization, fluorescence, occlusion spectroscopy, and photoacoustic spectroscopy. Electrical methods include reverse iontophoresis, impedance spectroscopy, and electromagnetic sensing. Ultrasound, detection from breath, or fluid harvesting technique can be used to measure blood glucose level. Combination of various methods is also promising. Although there are many interesting and promising technologies and devices, there need further researches until a commercially available non-invasive glucometer is popular.

Urine bioassay has been widely used for internal dosimetry due to simple process of sampling and measurement. In this paper, we participated in the NRIP (NIST Radiochemistry Intercomparison Program) hosted by US NIST to carry out a reliable performance test of urine bioassay and introduced the measurement method and results of NRIP-2013. In customary exercise with 60 days of reporting time, bioassay results of 12 radionuclides in the synthetic urine samples were acceptable based on the performance criteria of ANSI N13.30. In emergency preparedness exercise with 8 hours of reporting time, bioassay results of 9 radionuclides showed that differences ranged from -35% to 45%. However, we concluded that urine bioassay applied for emergency preparedness exercise would be applicable for rapid screening and estimation of internal exposure within a difference of ${\pm}45%$ in the event of radiological accidents.

Objectives : The purpose of this paper was to suggest new diagnostic method that was to supersede the estimation of electrical properties at acupoints. Thus, we developed the multi- frequencies bioelectrical impedance measurement system so as to analyze the state of bio-ions in body fluid as body compositions, not skin impedance at acupoint. Methods : At low frequency, the current does not penetrate the cell membrane and at high frequency, the current passes through both intracellular and extracellular fluid because of the decreas of cell membrane impedance. To confirm the reflection of composition in extracellular fluid or intracellular fluid of segment such as acupoint, the system was developed to detect the acupoint potential between adjacent two points in the area of LU3, LU4 and LU9 using 5,50 and 200KHz. Results : The detected acupoint potential has been decreased according to elevation of frequency. As a result of correlation of left/right identical acupoint, we observed a high correlation of three types of acupoint potential at multi-frequencies. Moreover, we observed the low correlation at 5KHz, and that was a significant factor to be considered as unbalanced relationship of identical acupoints. Conclusions : On the basis of meridian theoretical point of view, we may infer the acupoint's physiological composition using the multi-frequencies bioelectrical impedance measurement system.

In this study, electromagnetic fields emitted from the various environment in the hospital were measured. Measurement spot was patients' head. To monitor how much magnetic fields are emitting from operation room, monitoring device was attached to 19 anesthesiologist and monitoring lasted 8 hours. We also took a measurement from various medical devices. Devices include ESWL, PET, MRI, CT, Gamma knife, X-ray, Angiogram, Echocardiogram, Upper GI and Linear Accelerator. Electromagnetic fields were measured from 10 spots from each of 5 patient waiting room. As a results, there were no places showing risk of high exposure. All the measurement values were below the reference levels for general public exposure to time varying electric and magnetic fields which is issued by ICNIRP.

Mandibular first premolars obtained from the middle-aged men about the ages of 50 were scanned using a Micro-CT. A Jig was made for a Micro-CT measurement to get reliable data from irregular teeth shape. Data were measured from the scanned 2-D images by way of measurement software. the methodology fer measurement of the mandibular first premolar was presented and according to this, the standardized mandibular first premolars of middle aged Korean males and females were made by using a rapid prototyping system.
