Just before the Korean War, the total number of the North Korean troops was 198,380, while that of the ROK(Republic of Korea) army troops 105,752. That is, the total number of the ROK army troops at that time was 53.3% of the total number of the North Korean army. As of December 2008, the total number of the North Korean troops is estimated to be 1,190,000, while that of the ROK troops is 655,000, so the ROK army maintains 55.04% of the total number of the North Korean troops. If the ROK army continues to reduce its troops according to [Military Reform Plan 2020], the total number of its troops will be 517,000 m 2020. If North Korea maintains the current status(l,190,000 troops), the number of the ROK troops will be 43.4% of the North Korean army. In terms of units, just before the Korean War, the number of the ROK army divisions and regiments was 80% and 44.8% of North Korean army. As of December 2008, North Korea maintains 86 divisions and 69 regiments. Compared to the North Korean army, the ROK army maintains 46 Divisions (53.4% of North Korean army) and 15 regiments (21.3% of North Korean army). If the ROK army continue to reduce the military units according to [Military Reform Plan 2020], the number of ROK army divisions will be 28(13 Active Division, 4 Mobilization Divisions and 11 Local Reserve Divisions), while that of the North Korean army will be 86 in 2020. In that case, the number of divisions of the ROK army will be 32.5% of North Korean army. During the Korean war, North Korea suddenly invaded the Republic of Korea and occupied its capital 3 days after the war began. At that time, the ROK army maintained 80% of army divisions, compared to the North Korean army. The lesson to be learned from this is that, if the ROK army is forced to disperse its divisions because of the simultaneous invasion of North Korea and attack of guerrillas in home front areas, the Republic of Korea can be in a serious military danger, even though it maintains 80% of military divisions of North Korea. If the ROK army promotes the plans in [Military Reform Plan 2020], the number of military units of the ROK army will be 32.5% of that of the North Korean army. This ratio is 2.4 times lower than that of the time when the Korean war began, and in this case, 90% of total military power should be placed in the DMZ area. If 90% of military power is placed in the DMZ area, few troops will be left for the defense of home front. In addition, if the ROK army continues to reduce the troops, it can allow North Korea to have asymmetrical superiority in military force and it will eventually exert negative influence on the stability and peace of the Korean peninsular. On the other hand, it should be reminded that, during the Korean War, the Republic of Korea was attacked by North Korea, though it kept 53.3% of troops, compared to North Korea. It should also be reminded that, as of 2008, the ROK army is defending its territory with the troops 55.04% of North Korea. Moreover, the national defense is assisted by 25,120 troops of the US Forces in Korea. In case the total number of the ROK troops falls below 43.4% of the North Korean army, it may cause social unrest about the national security and may lead North Korea's misjudgement. Besides, according to Lanchester strategy, the party with weaker military power (60% compared to the party with stronger military power) has the 4.1% of winning possibility. Therefore, if we consider the fact that the total number of the ROK army troops is 55.04% of that of the North Korean army, the winning possibility of the ROK army is not higher than 4.1%. If the total number of ROK troops is reduced to 43.4% of that of North Korea, the winning possibility will be lower and the military operations will be in critically difficult situation. [Military Reform Plan 2020] rums at the reduction of troops and units of the ground forces under the policy of 'select few'. However, the problem is that the financial support to achieve this goal is not secured. Therefore, the promotion of [Military Reform Plan 2020] may cause the weakening of military defence power in 2020. Some advanced countries such as Japan, UK, Germany, and France have promoted the policy of 'select few'. However, what is to be noted is that the national security situation of those countries is much different from that of Korea. With the collapse of the Soviet Unions and European communist countries, the military threat of those European advanced countries has almost disappeared. In addition, the threats those advanced countries are facing are not wars in national level, but terrorism in international level. To cope with the threats like terrorism, large scaled army trops would not be necessary. So those advanced European countries can promote the policy of 'select few'. In line with this, those European countries put their focuses on the development of military sections that deal with non-military operations and protection from unspecified enemies. That is, those countries are promoting the policy of 'select few', because they found that the policy is suitable for their national security environment. Moreover, since they are pursuing common interest under the European Union(EU) and they can form an allied force under NATO, it is natural that they are pursing the 'select few' policy. At present, NATO maintains the larger number of troops(2,446,000) than Russia(l,027,000) to prepare for the potential threat of Russia. The situation of japan is also much different from that of Korea. As a country composed of islands, its prime military focus is put on the maritime defense. Accordingly, the development of ground force is given secondary focus. The japanese government promotes the policy to develop technology-concentrated small size navy and air-forces, instead of maintaining large-scaled ground force. In addition, because of the 'Peace Constitution' that was enacted just after the end of World War II, japan cannot maintain troops more than 240,000. With the limited number of troops (240,000), japan has no choice but to promote the policy of 'select few'. However, the situation of Korea is much different from the situations of those countries. The Republic of Korea is facing the threat of the North Korean Army that aims at keeping a large-scale military force. In addition, the countries surrounding Korea are also super powers containing strong military forces. Therefore, to cope with the actual threat of present and unspecified threat of future, the importance of maintaining a carefully calculated large-scale military force cannot be denied. Furthermore, when considering the fact that Korea is in a peninsular, the Republic of Korea must take it into consideration the tradition of continental countries' to maintain large-scale military powers. Since the Korean War, the ROK army has developed the technology-force combined military system, maintaining proper number of troops and units and pursuing 'select few' policy at the same time. This has been promoted with the consideration of military situation in the Koran peninsular and the cooperation of ROK-US combined forces. This kind of unique military system that cannot be found in other countries can be said to be an insightful one for the preparation for the actual threat of North Korea and the conflicts between continental countries and maritime countries. In addition, this kind of technology-force combined military system has enabled us to keep peace in Korea. Therefore, it would be desirable to maintain this technology-force combined military system until the reunification of the Korean peninsular. Furthermore, it is to be pointed out that blindly following the 'select few' policy of advanced countries is not a good option, because it is ignoring the military strategic situation of the Korean peninsular. If the Republic of Korea pursues the reduction of troops and units radically without consideration of the threat of North Korea and surrounding countries, it could be a significant strategic mistake. In addition, the ROK army should keep an eye on the fact the European advanced countries and Japan that are not facing direct military threats are spending more defense expenditures than Korea. If the ROK army reduces military power without proper alternatives, it would exert a negative effect on the stable economic development of Korea and peaceful reunification of the Korean peninsular. Therefore, the desirable option would be to focus on the development of quality of forces, maintaining proper size and number of troops and units under the technology-force combined military system. The tableau above shows that the advanced countries like the UK, Germany, Italy, and Austria spend more defense expenditure per person than the Republic of Korea, although they do not face actual military threats, and that they keep achieving better economic progress than the countries that spend less defense expenditure. Therefore, it would be necessary to adopt the merits of the defense systems of those advanced countries. As we have examined, it would be desirable to maintain the current size and number of troops and units, to promote 'select few' policy with increased defense expenditure, and to strengthen the technology-force combined military system. On the basis of firm national security, the Republic of Korea can develop efficient policies for reunification and prosperity, and jump into the status of advanced countries. Therefore, the plans to reduce troops and units in [Military Reform Plan 2020] should be reexamined. If it is difficult for the ROK army to maintain its size of 655,000 troops because of low birth rate, the plans to establish the prompt mobilization force or to adopt drafting system should be considered for the maintenance of proper number of troops and units. From now on, the Republic of Korean government should develop plans to keep peace as well as to prepare unexpected changes in the Korean peninsular. For the achievement of these missions, some options can be considered. The first one is to maintain the same size of military troops and units as North Korea. The second one is to maintain the same level of military power as North Korea in terms of military force index. The third one is to maintain the same level of military power as North Korea, with the combination of the prompt mobilization force and the troops in active service under the system of technology-force combined military system. At present, it would be not possible for the ROK army to maintain such a large-size military force as North Korea (1,190,000 troops and 86 units). So it would be rational to maintain almost the same level of military force as North Korea with the combination of the troops on the active list and the prompt mobilization forces. In other words, with the combination of the troops in active service (60%) and the prompt mobilization force (40%), the ROK army should develop the strategies to harmonize technology and forces. The Korean government should also be prepared for the strategic flexibility of USFK, the possibility of American policy change about the location of foreign army, radical unexpected changes in North Korea, the emergence of potential threat, surrounding countries' demand for Korean force for the maintenance of regional stability, and demand for international cooperation against terrorism. For this, it is necessary to develop new approaches toward the proper number and size of troops and units. For instance, to prepare for radical unexpected political or military changes in North Korea, the Republic of Korea should have plans to protect a large number of refugees, to control arms and people, to maintain social security, and to keep orders in North Korea. From the experiences of other countries, it is estimated that 115,000 to 230,000 troops, plus ten thousands of police are required to stabilize the North Korean society, in the case radical unexpected military or political change happens in North Korea. In addition, if the Republic of Korea should perform the release of hostages, control of mass destruction weapons, and suppress the internal wars in North Korea, it should send 460,000 troops to North Korea. Moreover, if the Republic of Korea wants to stop the attack of North Korea and flow of refugees in DMZ area, at least 600,000 troops would be required. In sum, even if the ROK army maintains 600,000 troops, it may need additional 460,000 troops to prepare for unexpected radical changes in North Korea. For this, it is necessary to establish the prompt mobilization force whose size and number are almost the same as the troops in active service. In case the ROK army keeps 650,000 troops, the proper number of the prompt mobilization force would be 460,000 to 500,000.

식물공장에서 적합한 광을 선정하기 위해서는 양적인 측면과 기능적 측면 뿐만 아니라 운영비를 고려하기 위하여 전기에너지이용효율과 광이용효율을 동시에 고려해야 하는데 본 연구에서는 들깨를 위한 LED광원의 광량, 적색광과 청색광의 혼합 비율과 광주기 조건별 생육 특성과 전기에너지이용효율과 광이용효율을 함께 비교하였다. 광량 처리구는 60, 130, 230, 320µmol·m^-2·s^-1 조건으로, 광질 처리구는 적색광과 청색광의 혼합 비율 8:2, 6:4, 4:6, 2:8 조건으로, 일장 처리구는 낮 기준 9, 12, 15, 18시간으로 처리하였다. 광량 실험에서는 광량이 높을수록 생육량이 늘어나는데 비해 소비전력당 건물중의 광이용효율은 유의차가 없었다. 소비전력당 엽생체중을 추가로 비교해보면 320µmol·m^-2·s^-1 처리구에서만 유의적으로 낮은 효율을 보였고 이외의 처리구에서는 유의차가 없었기 때문에 생산량이 가장 많은 230µmol·m^-2·s^-1가 가장 효율적이었다. 광질 실험에서는 적색광과 청색광의 혼합 비율은 RB 8:2에서 생육량과 광이용효율이 동시에 높게 측정되었고 색차와 flavonoids 함량에서는 유의차가 발생하지 않아 Red: Blue 비율 8:2가 가장 적합한 조건이었다. 광주기 실험에서는 광주기가 길어질수록 높은 생육량을 나타냈는데 일장 12시간이상에서는 생육량의 유의차가 없었으므로 광소비 효율을 고려한 12시간이 적합한 조건이었다. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 식물공장에서 들깨 생육을 위한 LED 광 환경 조건으로는 광도, 광질과 일장은 각각 230µmol·m^-2·s^-1 이상, 8:2와 12시간 이상이었다.

Objective : In this study, the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program was applied to patients presenting with depression and anxiety after surgery from spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and the effects were assessed. Methods : The subjects were patients admitted for cerebral aneurysm rupture and treated by means of surgery from March to December, 2007. More than 6 months had passed after surgery, without any special lesions showing up on computed tomography (CT), and the Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) was 5 points. Among patients with anxiety and depression symptoms, 11 patients completed the program. The MBSR program was conducted once a week, 2.5 hours each, for 8 weeks. The evaluation criteria were : 1) the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI): it measures the type and level of depression, 2) the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory : the anxiety state of normal adults without mental disorder, and 3) Heart Rate Variability (HRV) : the influence of the autonomous nervous system on the sinoarterial node varies continuously in response to the change of the internal/external environment. Results : The BDI value was decreased from 18.5 ${\pm}$ 10.9 to 9.5 ${\pm}$ 7.1 (p = 0.013) : it was statistically significant, and the depression level of patients was lowered. The state anxiety was decreased from 51.3 ${\pm}$ 13.9 to 42.3 ${\pm}$ 15.2; the trait anxiety was reduced from 50.9 ${\pm}$ 12.3 to 41.3 ${\pm}$ 12.8, and a borderline significant difference was shown (p = 0.091, p = 0.056). In other words, after the treatment, although it was not statistically significant, a decreased tendency in anxiety was shown. In the HRV measurement, standard deviation normal to normal (SDNN), square root of the square root of the mean sum of squared differences between adjacent normal to normal intervals (RMSSD), and total power (TP) showed significant increase, Physical Stress Index (PSI) showed a significant reduction, and thus an improvement in the homeostatic control mechanism of the autonomic nervous system was ween. Conclusion : The MBSR program was applied to the patients showing anxiety and depression reaction after SAH treatment, and a reduction in depression symptoms and physiological reactions were observed. The application of the MBSR program may be considered as a new tool in improving the quality of life for patients after surgery.

수문순환의 이해와 효율적 수자원 관리의 측면에서 토양수분의 중요성이 조명되고 있으나, 국내에는 양질의 지점 토양수분 자료의 부재로 그 활용도가 매우 낮은 실정이다. 때문에 인공위성 기반의 토양수분을 적용할 때에도, 기준자료가 되는 지상 관측자료가 없어 객관적인 평가 및 교정이 어려운 실정이다. 코즈믹 레이 중성자 탐지센서(cosmic-ray neutron probe, CRNP)를 활용한 토양수분 관측소는 위성 자료의 검보정을 위한 기준 자료 생산에서 핵심적인 역할을 수행할 수 있다. CRNP는 비침습식으로 설치가 가능하여 토양층 교란과 식생 환경의 피해를 최소화할 수 있고, 공간 대표성을 가진 중간 규모의 관측 범위를 가지고 있다는 장점이 있다. 이러한 특징은 지형이 복잡하고 식생이 우거진 지형이 많은 우리나라에서의 활용이 용이하다는 장점으로 이어진다. 따라서 본 연구는 한국형 코즈믹 레이 토양수분 관측 시스템(Korean cOsmic-ray Soil Moisture Observing System, KOSMOS) 구축의 일환으로, CRNP를 활용한 토양수분 관측소의 국내 적용성을 평가하고자 수행되었다. CRNP 관측소는 전력 및 설치 부지 확보의 용이성과 추후 타 수문기상 인자와의 효율적 활용을 고려하여, 한강홍수통제소의 홍천군 군업리 관측소에 병행 설치되었다. CRNP 토양수분 자료의 평가를 위해 12개소의 지점 토양수분 센서를 추가로 설치하였으며, 시간 안정성 분석을 통해 공간적 대표성을 평가하였다. CRNP에서 생성되는 중성자는 평균 1,087 counts per hour 정도로 설마천 관측소에 비해 낮게 나타나 홍천 관측소의 환경이 더 습윤한 환경임을 알 수 있었다. 관측된 중성자 자료의 중성자 보정과 초기교정을 통해 토양수분을 산정하였으며, 산정된 토양수분 자료는 짧은 교정 기간에도 지점 자료와의 검증에서 r=0.82로 높은 상관성을 보여주었고, root mean square error=0.02 m³/m³의 높은 정확도를 보여주었다. 추후 계절성을 반영할 수 있도록 연간 자료가 축적된 후 재교정을 수행하면 보다 높은 정확도를 보여줄 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 결과는 CRNP 토양수분 자료의 우수성을 검증한 선행연구들과 더불어, KOSMOS 구축 시 양질의 토양수분 자료를 생산할 수 있음을 시사한다.

To prepare for the complicated international relationship regarding Korean Peninsula after reunification, this thesis started off with the awareness that Unified Korea should build its international posture and national security at an early stage by determining its appropriate military strength for independent defense and military strategies that Unified Korea should aim. The main theme of this thesis is 'The research on appropriate military strength of the Unified Korean military'. To derive appropriate military strength of Unified Korea, this research focuses on conflict scenario and relative balance strategy based on potential threats posed by neighboring countries, and this is the part that differentiates this research from other researches. First of all, the main objective of the research is to decide appropriate military strength for Unified Korea to secure defense sufficiency. For this, this research will decide efficient military strategy that Unified Korea should aim. Than by presuming the most possible military conflict scenario, this research will judge the most appropriate military strength for Unified Korea to overcome the dispute. Second, after deciding appropriate military strength, this research will suggest how to operate presumed military strength in each armed force. The result of this thesis is as in the following. First, Unified Korea should aim 'relative balance strategy'. 'Relative balance strategy' is a military strategy which Unified Korea can independently secure defense sufficiency by maintaining relative balance when conflicts occur between neighboring countries. This strategy deters conflicts in advance by relative balance of power in certain time and place. Even if conflict occurs inevitably, this strategy secures initiative. Second, when analyzing neighboring countries interest and strategic environment after unification, the possibility of all-out war will be low in the Korean Peninsula because no other nation wants the Korean Peninsula to be subordinated to one single country. Therefore appropriate military strength of the Unified Korean military would be enough when Unified Korea can achieve relative balance in regional war or limited war. Third, Northeast Asia is a region where economic power and military strength is concentrated. Despite increasing mutual cooperation in the region, conflicts and competition to expand each countries influence is inherent. Japan is constantly enhancing their military strength as they aim for normal statehood. China is modernizing their military strength as they aspire to become global central nation. Russia is also enhancing their military strength in order to hold on to their past glory of Soviet Union as a world power. As a result, both in quality and quantity, the gap between military strength of Unified Korea and each neighboring countries is enlarged at an alarming rate. Especially in the field of air-sea power, arms race is occurring between each nation. Therefore Unified Korea should be equipped with appropriate military strength in order to achieve relative balance with each threats posed by neighboring countries. Fourth, the most possible conflicts between Unified Korea and neighboring countries could be summarized into four, which are Dokdo territorial dispute with Japan, Leodo jurisdictional dispute with China, territorial dispute concerning northern part of the Korea Peninsula with China and disputes regarding marine resources and sea routes with Russia. Based on those conflict scenarios, appropriate military strength for Unified Korea is as in the following. When conflict occurs with Japan regarding Dokdo, Japan is expected to put JMSDF Escort Flotilla 3, one out of four of its Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force Escort Fleet, which is based in Maizuru and JMSDF Maizuru District. To counterbalance this military strength, Unified Korea needs one task fleet, comprised with three task flotilla. In case of jurisdictional conflict with China concerning Leodo, China is expected to dispatch its North Sea fleet, one out of three of its naval fleet, which is in charge of the Yellow Sea. To response to this military action, Unified Korea needs one task fleet, comprised with three task flotilla. In case of territorial dispute concerning northern part of the Korean Peninsula with China, it is estimated that out of seven Military Region troops, China will dispatch two Military Region troops, including three Army Groups from Shenyang Military Region, where it faces boarder with the Korean Peninsula. To handle with this military strength, Unified Korea needs six corps size ground force strength, including three corps of ground forces, two operational reserve corps(maneuver corps), and one strategic reserve corps(maneuver corps). When conflict occurs with Russia regarding marine resources and sea routes, Russia is expected to send a warfare group of a size that includes two destroyers, which is part of the Pacific Fleet. In order to balance this strength, Unified Korea naval power requires one warfare group including two destroyers. Fifth, management direction for the Unified Korean military is as in the following. Regarding the ground force management, it would be most efficient to deploy troops in the border area with china for regional and counter-amphibious defense. For the defense except the border line with china, the most efficient form of force management would be maintaining strategic reserve corps. The naval force should achieve relative balance with neighboring countries when there is maritime dispute and build 'task fleet' which can independently handle long-range maritime mission. Of the three 'task fleet', one task fleet should be deployed at Jeju base to prepare for Dokdo territorial dispute and Leodo jurisdictional dispute. Also in case of regional conflict with china, one task fleet should be positioned at Yellow Sea and for regional conflict with Japan and Russia, one task fleet should be deployed at East Sea. Realistically, Unified Korea cannot possess an air force equal to neither Japan nor China in quantity. Therefore, although Unified Korea's air force might be inferior in quantity, they should possess the systematic level which Japan or China has. For this Unified Korea should build air base in island areas like Jeju Island or Ullenong Island to increase combat radius. Also to block off infiltration of enemy attack plane, air force needs to build and manage air bases near coastal areas. For landing operation forces, Marine Corps should be managed in the size of two divisions. For island defense force, which is in charge of Jeju Island, Ulleung Island, Dokdo Island and five northwestern boarder island defenses, it should be in the size of one brigade. Also for standing international peace keeping operation, it requires one brigade. Therefore Marine Corps should be organized into three divisions. The result of the research yields a few policy implications when building appropriate military strength for Unified Korea. First, Unified Korea requires lower number of ground troops compared to that of current ROK(Republic of Korea) force. Second, air-sea forces should be drastically reinforced. Third, appropriate military strength of the Unified Korean military should be based on current ROK military system. Forth, building appropriate military strength for Unified Korea should start from today, not after reunification. Because of this, South Korea should build a military power that can simultaneously prepare for current North Korea's provocations and future threats from neighboring countries after reunification. The core of this research is to decide appropriate military strength for Unified Korea to realize relative balance that will ensure defense sufficiency from neighboring countries threats. In other words, this research should precisely be aware of threats posed by neighboring countries and decide minimum level of military strength that could realize relative balance in conflict situation. Moreover this research will show the path for building appropriate military strength in each armed force.

대학은 교육을 통한 인재육성과 더불어, 사회적 가치를 창출할 수 있는 새로운 지식 및 아이디어를 창출하는 것을 주요한 목적으로 한다. 이러한 지적 자원은 비단 교수들이 생산하는 논문에 국한되지 않으며, 학생들로부터 창출되는 창의적인 아이디어, 독창적 문제인식 및 솔루션을 포괄하고 있다. 대학에서 창출되는 주요한 지적자원은 학술적인 지식인 '논문', 교육적 용도의 '강의자료', 텀프로젝트, 공모전 등을 통해 창출되는 창의적 형태의 '아이디어', 그리고 법적인 지적재산권이 확보된 '특허'등이 있다. 그러나, 이러한 대학의 지적 자원은 대부분 강의실 이외의 공간으로 유통되지 못하고 있으며, 대학 내에서조차 체계적으로 관리되지 못한다. 본 연구는 인문사회계열의 대학에서 창출되는 다양한 형태의 지적 자원을 기업에 유통시키고, 이를 통하여 대학의 인적자원이 기업에 연계될 수 있도록 하는 새로운 형태의 시스템 플랫폼을 제안한다. 즉, 대학의 지적자원을 실제로 이를 활용할 기업에게 시스템적으로 유통시킬 수 있는 방안을 연구하였으며, 이와 더불어 대학에서 배출되는 우수한 인재들의 정보를 기업에 함께 전달하여, 산학연계를 공고히 할 수 있는 시스템의 플랫폼을 설계하였다. 이를 위해, 본 연구에서는 시스템의 주요 사용자인 학생 및 교수, 그리고 기업의 실무담당자 총 100명에 대한 사용자 요구도를 조사하고, 이를 토대로 대학의 지적/인적자원에 대한 유통플랫폼 및 이에 대한 그래픽 사용자 인터페이스 (Graphic User Interface) 프로토타입을 구성하였다. 마지막으로, 제안된 플랫폼을 효과적으로 운영할 수 있는 방안에 대한 정책적 시사점을 제안하였다.

MV방사선 치료는 둘러싸여 있는 정상조직의 피폭선량을 최소화 하면서, target volume 내에 정확하게 선량을 전달하는데 있어 중요한 요인이다. 본 연구에서는 방사선 치료의 높은 정확성을 유지하기 위하여 megavoltage X-ray imaging (MVI)에서 edge block 을 사용한 digital radiography (DR) system 검출기의 modulation transfer function (MTF: 변조전달함수), the noise power spectrum (NPS: 잡음전력스펙트럼) and the detective quantum efficiency (DQE: 양자검출효율)를 측정하고자 한다. 우리는 텅스텐으로 구성된 19 (thickness) ${\times}$ 10 (length) ${\times}$ 1 (width) $cm^3$의 edge block을 사용하였으며, 다음과 같은 setting들로 pre-sampling modulation transfer function (MTF)를 계산하였다: 6-megavolt (MV) energy를 사용하고, 다양한 Radiotherapy장비인 TrueBeamTM (Varian), BEAMVIEWPLUS (Siemens), iViewGT (Elekta), ClinacR iX (Varian) 를 사용하였다. MTF결과에서 Varian TrueBeamTM flattening filter free가 MTF의 50% ($mm^{-1}$)에서 0.46, 10% ($mm^{-1}$) 에서 1.40로 가장 highest value를 보였다. Noise 분포는 Elekta iViewGT가 가장 낮은 분포를 보였다. DQE에서는 E lekt a iViewGT가 peak DQE에서 0.0026 그리고 $1mm^{-1}$ DQE 에서 0.00014로 가장 높았다. 본 연구는 Edge method를 이용하여 MTF와 DQE산출을 재현하였으며, 현재 임상에서 사용되는 DR 시스템 측정의 높은 정확성을 유지할 수 있었으며 이러한 연구는 전통적인 QA 영상화뿐만 아니라 검출기 개발 연구에 있어서 정량적인 MTF, NPS, DQE 측정에 더욱 더 효율적으로 사용될 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있다.
