본 연구에서는 수복에 따른 치질 내부 구조물의 열적변화를 평가하기 위하여 와동이 형성된 인공 치아모형에 아말감충전, 아말감과 스테인레스 스틸관 수복, 금인레이와 금관수복, ZOE 이장 및 아말감충전 등으로 수복한 후 온도변화를 관찰하였다. 각 실험군에 $4^{\circ}C$와 $60^{\circ}C$로 2초와 4초 동안 자극을 가한 후 치아내부의 온도분포를 2차원적으로 분석하였고, 치수 중앙부에서 외측으로 층을 형성하여 3차원적인 해석을 시행한 결과, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. $4^{\circ}C$의 자극이 2초간 가해진 아말감 충전 경우, 아말감 충전과 스테인레스 스틸관을 장착한 경우에서는 $1^{\circ}C$ 내외의 차이를 보였으며, 치수와 상아질 경계면에서 3초 경과시에 $29^{\circ}C$까지 급격한 온도 하강을 보였으며 9초 후에 $25^{\circ}C$에 도달하였다. 또한 금으로 수복한 경우에서는 3초 후 $25^{\circ}C$까지 하강하여 그 온도를 유지하였으며, ZOE 이장 경우에서는 최저온도가 $4^{\circ}C$ 이상 높게 나타났다. 2. $4^{\circ}C$ 자극을 4초간 가한 경우에서는 9초 후에서 2초 자극시보다 $2-3^{\circ}C$ 낮았으며, 금 수복 경우에는 5초 후에 $21^{\circ}C$의 최저온도를 보인 후 점차 회복되었다. 3. 아말감 충전 및 스테인레스 스틸관을 같이 장착한 경우에 $60^{\circ}C$, 2초간 자극에는 3초 후 $40^{\circ}C$의 온도로서 상승하였으나 9초 후에 $30^{\circ}C$로 하강 하였으며, 금 수복에서는 2초 후 $41^{\circ}C$까지 온도가 상승하였고, 9초 후 $28^{\circ}C$를 보여 $13^{\circ}C$의 차이가 있었다. ZOE 이장 경우에는 온도차이가 $5^{\circ}C$로서 안정된 양상을 보였다. 4. $60^{\circ}C$, 4초 자극에 대한 아말감 충전 및 스테인레스 스틸관을 같이 장착한 경우에서 5초 후 $42^{\circ}C$, 9초 후 $35^{\circ}C$를 보였으나 금 수복 경우에서는 3초 후 $49^{\circ}C$, 9초 후 $31^{\circ}C$의 온도변화를 나타내었다. 5. 3차원 분석에서 치수 중앙부에서 멀어질수록 온도변화가 심하였다.

목 적: 유방 부분 절제술 후 방사선 치료 시 기존의 라이낙을 이용한 치료기법과 비교하여 TOMO Direct를 이용한 접선 치료 기법의 임상적 유용성을 알아보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 유방 부분 절제술 후 방사선 치료를 받은 좌측 유방암 환자 3명을 대상으로 라이낙을 이용한 쐐기 접선 조사 기법(Wedged tangential fields technique)과 조사면 내 선량 보강 기법(Field In Field technique, FIF), TOMO Direct, TOMO Direct 세기 변조 방사선 치료(Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy, IMRT)기법을 이용하여 동일한 처방 조건(CTV 내 $D_{90%}$: 50.4 Gy/28 fx)으로 치료계획을 수립하였다. 선량 분석을 위해 선량 체적 히스토그램(Dose Volume Histogram, DVH)과 등선량 곡선 (Isodose curve)을 이용하여 종양 내 표적체적(Clinical Target Volume, CTV)과 손상위험장기(Organ At Risk, OAR)에 대한 선량을 비교분석 하였다. 표적체적의 선량 인자로는 $D_{99}$, $D_{95}$, 선량 균일 지수(Dose homogeneity index, DHI: $D_{10}/D_{90}$)와 $V_{105}$, $V_{110}$을 손상위험장기의 선량 인자로는 심장의 $V_{10}$, $V_{20}$, $V_{30}$, $V_{40}$과 좌측 폐의 $V_{10}$, $V_{20}$, $V_{30}$을 비교 분석하였다. 결 과: 표적체적의 선량 분석 결과로 $D_{99}$, $D_{95}$의 평균값은 각각 쐐기 접선 조사(W)에서 $47.7{\pm}1.1Gy$, $49.4{\pm}0.1Gy$이었으며, 조사면 내 선량 보강 기법(F)은 각각 $47.1{\pm}0.6Gy$, $49.2{\pm}0.4Gy$, 그리고 TOMO Direct(D)와 TOMO Direct IMRT(I)에서는 각각 $49.2{\pm}0.4$ vs. $48.6{\pm}0.8Gy$, $49.9{\pm}0.4$ vs. $49.5{\pm}0.3Gy$이었다. 선량 균일 지수의 평균값은 W: $1.1{\pm}0.02$, F: $1.07{\pm}0.02$, D: $1.03{\pm}0.001$, I: $1.05{\pm}0.02$이었다. 각각의 치료 기법으로 $V_{105}$, $V_{110}$의 평균값을 비교하였을 때 쐐기 접선 조사 시 각각 $34.6{\pm}9.3%$, $7.5{\pm}7.9%$로 가장 높았고 조사면 내 선량 보강 기법은 $16.5{\pm}14.8%$, $2.1{\pm}3.5%$로, TOMO direct IMRT는 $7.5{\pm}8.3%$, $0.1{\pm}0.1%$로 낮아졌으며 TOMO direct에서는 두 값 모두 0%로 나타났다. 손상 위험 장기에 대한 선량 분석 결과 각각의 치료 기법 사이에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결 론: TOMO Direct를 이용한 접선 조사 기법은 기존의 쐐기 접선 치료 기법보다 치료 용적 내에 균일한 선량분포를 얻을 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 IMRT 또는 Tomotherapy와 달리 정상조직의 저 선량 영역의 노출용적을 증가시키지 않았으며 조사면 내선량 보강 기법 보다 용이한 치료계획 절차를 수행하므로 유방 부분 절제술 후 방사선 치료 시 임상적으로 유용하리라 사료된다.

암반으로 구성되어 있는 급경사($65^{\circ}{\sim}85^{\circ}$)비탈면이 장기간 안정한 상태로 유지되고 있는 자연현상을 고려할 때, 설계 및 초기 시공 단계에서 위와 유사한 지반 상태로 이루어진 깎기 암반비탈면에 대해 1:0.5(발파암 경사 기준)보다 급한 경사를 적용할 수 있을 것이다. 급경사로 설계 가능한 양호한 연속체 암반비탈면의 안정성을 검토하는 과정에서, 설계실무 측면에서 범용적인 암반강도정수 산정방법이 필요하게 되었다. Hoek 등(2002)이 수정 보완하여 발표한 Hoek-Brown 파괴기준과 GSI분류는 불연속구조의 영향을 충분히 고려한 암반특성화 시스템으로 평가되었으며, 응력변화에 따라 등가 Mohr-Coulomb 강도정수(등면적법)를 산출하는 방법을 제안하였다. 비탈면에서는 등가 M-C 강도정수가 최대구속응력(${{\sigma}^{\prime}}_{3max}$ 또는 수직응력)변화에 따라 민감하게 변화하므로 실무적으로 활용하기에 어려운 점이 있다. 이 연구에서는 양호한 연속체 암반비탈면에 대해 최대구속응력 범위이내에서 범용적으로 적용할 수 있는 강도정수산정방법(등각분할법)을 H-B 파괴기준을 응용하여 제안한다. 등각분할법 강도정수(A)의 타당성 및 적용성을 평가하기 위해, 연구대상 암반비탈면을 기존 실시설계 현장 인근에 있는 급경사 비탈면에서 암석종류별(화성암, 변성암, 퇴적암)로 선정하고, Hoek이 제시한 등가 M-C 강도정수(등면적법)들과 비교 분석하였다. 등면적법 및 등각분할법 등가 M-C 강도정수는 기본적인 자료인 기존 실시설계 현장의 실내 암석 삼축압축시험과 연구대상 암반비탈면의 불연속구조의 특성조사(Face Mapping)를 통해 RocLab 프로그램(H-B 파괴기준을 기본으로 전산화된 지반정수 산정 소프트웨어)을 활용하여 산정하였다. 산정된 등면적법 등가 M-C 강도정수는 상호 연동되어 점착력과 내부마찰각이 아주 크거나($45^{\circ}$ 이상) 작게 나타났다. 등각분할법 등가 M-C 강도정수는 등면적법 등가 M-C 강도정수의 중간 정도이며, 내부마찰각은 $30^{\circ}{\sim}42^{\circ}$의 범위를 보인다. 연구대상 암반비탈면의 등각분할법 강도정수(A)와 기존 실시 설계 현장에서 연구대상 암반비탈면과 유사한 암반상태(동일 등급 RMR)에 적용한 강도정수(B)와 비교 분석하고, 이 지반정수들로 적용한 비탈면 안정해석(한계평형해석과 유한요소해석) 결과를 통해 제안한 등각분할법의 적용성을 간접적으로 평가하였다. A와 B의 강도정수 차이는 10% 정도이다. 한계평형해석 결과(우기 기준), A적용 안전율(Fs)=14.08~58.22(평균 32.9), B적용 안전율(Fs)=18.39~60.04(평균 32.2)이며, 각 동일한 암석종류에 따라 상호 유사하게 나타났다. 유한요소 해석 결과, A적용 변위=0.13~0.65mm(평균 0.27mm), B적용 변위=0.14~1.07mm(평균 0.37mm)으로 매우 유사하다. H-B 파괴기준을 응용하여 등각분할법으로 산출한 지반 정수를 실무적인 전단강도로 적용할 수 있는 적용성 평가에서 유의미한 결과를 확인할 수 있었다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR.

연구배경 : 그람음성균 외세포벽 구성체의 일부인 리포다당질(lipopolysaccharide)로 구성된 내독소는 그람 음성균 유발 감염으로 발생원 염증 반응을 설명하는 주요소이다. 내독소(리포다당질)는 특히 호중구의 조직내 침윤을 특정으로 하는 급성 폐손상을 조장하며, 이러한 폐손상 발생 기전의 하나로서 내독소 자극에 의한 폐장내 효과세포(effector cells)의 cytokines 발현이 알려져 있다. 이때 유리된 cytokines은 다시 염증세포 및 폐장내 기질세포등에 영향을 주어 급성 폐손상이 초래되는 것으로 설명되어지고 있다. 저자들은 실험백서에서 아치사량의 내독소를 정맥내 주입한 유발된 급성 폐손상에서 내독소 주입후 시간에 따른 폐손상의 변화를 관찰하고 이틀 염증세포가 폐손상에 미치는 영향을 보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 체중 200g내외의 건강한 백서의 미부 정맥을 통하여 내독소를 5mg/kg 용량으로 주입후 각각 0, 3, 6, 24, 72시간째 기관지폐포세척술을 시행하여 총 세포수 및 분획 세포수를 산출하고, 총 단백량 및 $TNF{\alpha}$와 IL-6 측정과 동시에 조직소견의 검색을 각기 비교, 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 결 과 : 기관지폐포세척 총 백혈구수와 단백 농도는 각각 3시간에 유의한 증가를 보였다(p < 0.05). 72시간에 총 백혈구수의 유의한 감소에도(p < 0.05) 불구하고 단백농도는 계속 증가되있는 소견을 보였다. 기관지폐포 세척 총 백혈구수와 단백 농도와는 유의한 상관관계를 나타내었다(r = 0.65, p < 0.001). 기관지폐포세척 총 백혈구수와 호중구 및 단핵구수 간에는 유의한 상관관계를 보였으며(r = 0.97, p < 0.001 ; r = 0.61, p < 0.001), 단백농도와 호중구 및 단핵구수 간에도 유의한 상관관계를 보였다(r = 0.55, p < 0.005 ; r = 0.64, p < 0.001). 기관지폐포세척 단핵구는 관찰기간동안 계속 유의한 증가를 보였으나 호중구는 72시간에 의미있는 감소를 보여 폐손상 과정에서 단핵구는 지속적인 역할을 할 것으로 생각되었다. IL-6와 TNF 농도는 3 및 6시간째에 각각 최대치를 보였으며 24 및 72시간군과 비교하여 유의한 감소를 보였다(p < 0.05). 이들 상호간에 관련성은 없었으며, 특히 급성 폐손상 3 및 6시간군까지의 초기 관찰 기간중 $TNF{\alpha}$와 총 백혈구수 및 단핵구수 각각에서 유의한 상관관계를 보였다(r = 0.61, p < 0.05 ; r = 0.67, p < 0.05). 조직 소견의 검색 결과 폐장내 침윤 염증 세포수와 폐포벽 두께 정도와는 유의한 상관성이 관찰되었다(r=0.61, p<0.000). 3시간에는 단지 염증 세포의 침윤만이 유의한 증가를 보여(p < 0.001) 폐손상 초기에는 염증 세포의 침윤이 간질조직의 변화를 선행하는 것으로 사료되었으며, 72시간에서는 폐포벽의 두께만이 유의하게 감소된 결과(p < 0.005)를 보여 폐손상후 재생 과정중 폐포벽의 부종이 가장 먼저 감소되는 것으로 사료되었다. 결 론 : 내독소 유발 급성 폐손상에서 (1) 호중구는 주된 염증 세포로 작용하나 단핵구/폐포대식세포 및 폐장내 비면역세포등이 폐손상의 발생 및 진행에 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 사료되었다. (2) 기관지폐포세척 IL-6는 $TNF{\alpha}$와 비종속 관계를 보였고 조기에 최대치를 보여, 특히 IL-6 분비는 폐장내 다양한 세포에서 유래될 것으로 사료되었다.

수도 단간품종 육성을 위한 자료를 얻고자 Japonica 단간인 단간백망, Indica 단간인 T(N)1 그리고 Japonica$\times$Indica의 단간고정계통인 IE51의 3개품종을 단간친으로 하고 우리나라 품종인 진흥, 관옥, 및 팔굉을 모본으로 하는 관옥$\times$단간백망, 팔굉$\times$단간백망, 진흥$\times$T(N)1, 관옥$\times$T(N)1 및 관옥$\times$IE51의 5개조합의 $\textrm{F}_2$를 재배시기, 질소시용수준, 재식밀도 및 재배지를 달리한 여러 가지 환경조건하에 공시하여 간장 및 이에 관련된 형질의 유전양상과 생태적 변이를 추구하는 한편 관옥$\times$T(N)1, 진흥$\times$T(N)1 및 관옥$\times$IE51의 3개조합에 대하여는 전 공시개체수의 10%의 단간개체를 선발하여 $\textrm{F}_2$에서의 간장에 대한 선발효과를 검정하였다. 이를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 유전분리 가. Japonica 단간인 단간백망은 관옥 또는 팔굉과 교잡한 $\textrm{F}_2$에서 장간 : 단간이 3:1의 분리비를 나타내었다. 따라서 단간백망의 간장은 단순열성유전인자에 비하여 지배되었음을 알 수 있었다. 나. 상기 두 조합의 $\textrm{F}_2$의 수장분리에 있어서도 장수 : 단수의 분리비는 3:1로 나타났으므로 간장지배인자가 수장 표현에도 크게 관여하는 것으로 판단되었다. 다. 초장의 경우에 있어서도 간장의 분리양상과 대동소이하였다. 라. Indica의 Semi-dwarf인 T(N)1은 진흥 또는 관옥과 교잡한 $\textrm{F}_2$에서 3:1의 단순한 간장분리를 하지 않고 연속적인 정규분포양상을 나타내는 것으로 보아 상대품종들은 T(N)1의 단간인자의 대립유전자를 가지고 있지 않는 것으로 추정된다. 특히 진흥과 교잡한 $\textrm{F}_2$의 간장분리에서는 장간방향으로 초월분리현상을 나타내었다. 수장과 초장의 분리양상은 역시 간장의 경우와 유사하였다. 마. IE51은 관옥과 교잡하였을 때 간장, 수장 및 초장의 $\textrm{F}_2$분리양상이 T(N)1의 그것과 동일하였으므로 IE51의 단간인자는 곧 T(N)1으로부터 도입된 것임을 알 수 있었다. 2. 생태적 변이 가. 일반적으로 재배시기가 늦어짐에 따라 간장 및 초장의 감소를 보였으나 수장의 변이는 비교적 적었으며 그 감소정도는 품종 또는 조합에 따라 다소 달랐다. 그러나 이들 형질의 유전분리양상은 재배시기의 영향을 거의 받지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 나. 제 3절간까지의 절간장은 대체로 간장의 분리양상과 비슷하였다. 따라서 간장의 표현은 제 3절간장까지의 역할이 비교적 중요하다고 생각된다. 다. 질소시용량의 차이가 간장 및 관련형질에 미치는 영향은 비교적 적었다. 물론 질소증시에 따라 이들 형질이 증대되는 경향은 있었으나 품종 또는 그 조합특성에 따라 그 정도가 달랐다. 라. 재식밀도를 달리할 경우 간장 및 관련형질에 미치는 영향은 적은 편 이었으며 품종과 조합에 따라 그 변이정도가 달랐다. 그러나 밀식구에서 이들 형질이 다소 증대되는 경향은 인정할 수 있었다. 마. 교배친품종들의 간장, 수장 및 초장은 저위도지방에서 재배할수록 짧아졌는데 이는 감온성반응때문인 것으로 추측되었으며 $\textrm{F}_2$ 잡종에서는 어느 조합이든 남부인 밀양에서 가장 길었는데 이는 분리된 만생화개체의 고온에 의한 생육조장에 영향한 것으로 추측되었다. 3. 선발효과 가. 간장의 유전력은 관옥$\times$T(N)1에서 92%, 진흥$\times$T(N)1에서 55% 그리고 관옥$\times$IE51에서 74%로서 조합에 따라 다르나 상당히 높은 편이었다. 나. $\textrm{F}_2$전공시개체중에서 단간쪽의 10% 개체를 선발하여 G$_3$시험에서 얻은 실제적인 간장단축량은 관옥$\times$T(N)1조합에서 20.8cm, 관옥$\times$IE51조합에서 8.7cm 그리고 진흥$\times$T(N)1조합에서 20.0cm로서 기대치에 비교적 가까운 선발효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 다. 간장의 선발이 수장에 미치는 영향은 조합에 따라 상이하였으나 관옥$\times$T(N)1조합에서는 $\textrm{F}_2$모집단에 비하여 수장의 단축을 거의 인정할 수 없었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 간장, 수장 및 초장의 생태적 변이는 비교적적은 편으로 유전적 분리 범위내에 국한되었으며 단간백망의 간장 표현에 관여하는 단순열성인자는 단수 및 소립등의 불량형질을 동반하므로서 실용가치가 없는 반면에 T(N)1의 단간인자는 이러한 불량형질과 연쇄되지 않는 장점을 가졌으므로 단간모본으로서의 활용도가 높은 것으로 인정되었다.
