In Sasang constitutional medicine, the classification of Sasang constitutional types (Tae-Yang, Tae-Eum, So-Yang, and So-Eum) is important for the treatment. There are some problems with the methods used for classifying Sasang constitutional types; old methods such as pulse-palpation are not considered objective and recent methods such as immunohematology are considered expensive, painful and time-consuming. To overcome these problems, a body measurement and finger prints analysis were performed. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the palm prints and the palm creases could be helpful in classifying Sasang constitutional types. Thus, we looked for characteristics of the palm prints and the palm creases according to Sasang constitutional types. Before analyzing the palm prints and palm creases, 760 Korean (465 males, 295 females) were surveyed using two kinds of questionnaires for classifying Sasang constitutional types. As there were no Tae-Yang individuals, we were only able to identify the characteristics of the palm prints and the palm creases for Tae-Eum (288 persons), So-Yang (193 persons), and So-Eum (279 persons) individuals. In this study, the terminal points of D, closed crease, and open crease seemed to be helpful in classifying Tae-Eum and So-Eum individuals. Terminal point 11 and closed crease were frequent in Tae-Eum individuals; whereas, terminal point 7 and open crease were frequent in So-Eum individuals. Therefore, the palm prints and the palm creases seem to contribute to the classification of Sasang constitutional types.

본 논문에서는 라즈베리파이 기반으로 손바닥 정맥혈관 이미지를 획득하기 위하여 950nm파장을 가지는 근적외선 LED 광원 장치와 손금을 획득하기 위한 백색 LED 광원 장치를 가지는 시스템을 개발하였다. 또한 획득한 정맥 및 손금 이미지에 대하여 영상 전처리 과정(흑백화, 평활화, 이진화, 블러링, 세선화 등)을 통하여 정맥과 손금이 혼합된 위조 방지 및 보안이 강화된 고유 패턴이 추출 가능한 영상처리 기술을 구현하여 보안성이 강화된 시스템에서 활용할 수 있는 원천 기술을 확보하였다.

손바닥은 손금, 정맥 등 고유한 특징 정보를 포함하고 있는 신체 부위로 이를 이용한 다양한 사용자 인식 방법이 지속적으로 연구되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 손금과 손바닥 정맥을 함께 이용한 사용자 인식 방법을 제안한다. 먼저, 손바닥 영역에서 손금과 정맥이 가장 많이 포함되어 있는 관심 영역을 검출하고, 에지 방향성 및 밝기 통계정보를 이용하여 정맥 영상 화질 개선을 수행한다. 이후 다중 스펙트럼 환경에서 획득된 복수의 영상을 각각 독립된 심층 신경망의 입력으로 이용하여 손금과 정맥 패턴을 효과적으로 학습한다. 다양한 상황에서의 실험을 통해 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법이 기존 사용자 인식 방법 대비 개선된 결과를 보임을 확인하고 그 결과를 분석한다.

Purpose: The two major concerns in skin grafting are poor color match in the recipient site and the donor site morbidity. And, glabrous skin on the palmar aspect of the hands and plantar aspect of the feet attributes define the skin on the palm and fingers sole as functionally and aesthetically different from skin on other parts of the body. When there is a glabrous skin defect, it should be replaced with similar skin to restore function and aesthetics. The palmar crease areas were used to minimize these problems. The purpose of this study is to present the precise surgical technique of the full thickness skin graft using distal palmar and midpalmar creases for aesthetic better outcome for hand injuries. Methods: From May 2006 to April 2010, 10 patients with 11 defects underwent glabrous full thickness skin grafting of finger defects. Causes included seven machinery injuries, two secondary burn reconstructions, and one knife injury. Donor sites included ten glabrous full thickness skin graft from the distal palmar crease and one from the midpalmar crease. Results: Follow-up ranged from 3 months to 24 months. All glabrous skin grafts demonstrated complete taking the recipient sites and no incidence of the complete or partial loss. The donor site healed without complications, and there were no incidences of significant hypopigmantation, hyperpigmentation, or hypertrophic scarring. Conclusion: The important aspects of this method involve immediate return of glabrous skin to the defect site and restoration of the recipient site's crease by simple primary closure from adjacent skin. The glabrous skin of the palm provides the best tissue match for the reconstruction of the hands, but only a limited amount of tissue is available for this purpose. Full thickness skin grafting using palmar crease of the defects is the ideal way of reconstructing glabrous skin to restore both function and aesthetics and minimize donor site morbidity.
