목적: 전산화단층촬영을 이용하여 한국인 60, 70대의 정상 견갑골 관절와의 크기를 평가하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 견갑골의 손상이 없는 것으로 확인된 상완골 골절에서 시행된 견관절 전산화단층촬영 결과를 대상으로 하였다. 환자는 총 25명으로 남자가 14명, 여자가 11명이었다. 환자의 연령은 62세에서 76세 사이였으며, 평균 연령은 68.8세였다. 사용한 소프트 웨어는 Display workstation version 2.03.73.315 였으며 견관절 관절와의 최대 상하 및 전후방 직경을 측정하였다. 결과: 측정된 견관절 관절와의 최대 상하 직경은 평균 31.2 mm ($27{\sim}34\;mm$)였으며, 최대 전후방 직경은 평균 26.1 mm ($22{\sim}31\;mm$)였다. 결론: 이러한 결과는 다른 국제 학술지의 보고와는 다른 양상으로 국내 환자의 골절 치료 및 인공 관절 모델을 개발하는데 중요한 인자가 될 것으로 보인다.

Liver size is an important component in the diagnosis and follow-up of diffuse liver disease when testing for liver disease using ultrasonography. However, difficulties lies in determining the presence of hepatomegaly and liver atrophy because the method used for measuring liver size differs from one examiner to another and there is no relevant standard based on body build. The present study aims to propose a more objective method for liver size measurement and a reference range based on body build. A total of 260 normal adults (130 males, 130 females) participated in the study. Ultrasonography was performed in all participants to measure the size of the right lobe, left lobe, quadrate lobe, and caudate lobe of liver. Based on Physique Index(PI), a value derived from multiplying weight(kg) by height($m^2$), size of physique was divided into three groups including Group I with PI<150, Group II with $150{\leq}PI{\leq}250$, and Group III with PI>250. Thus, mean liver size by PI and a reference range with 95% reliability were suggested. The superoinferior diameter of right lobe was $12.34{\pm}1.18cm$ in males and $11.07{\pm}0.93cm$ in females, and its reference range was 10.64~11.0cm for Group I, 11.78~12.12cm for Group II, and 13.02~13.84cm for Group III. The anteroposterior diameter(T) of left lobe was $5.93{\pm}1.09cm$ in males and $5.18{\pm}0.99cm$ in females, and its reference range was 4.77~5.17cm for Group I, 5.49~5.79cm for Group II, and 6.68~7.44cm for Group III. The transverse diameter was $3.51{\pm}0.60cm$ in male participants and $3.42{\pm}0.49cm$ in female participants and its reference range was 3.29~3.51cm for Group I, 3.36~3.55cm for Group II, and 3.52~4.0cm for Group III. The caudate lobe index was $11.65{\pm}2.88cm^2$ in males and $9.62{\pm}2.18cm^2$ in females and its reference range was $8.83{\sim}9.75cm^2$ for Group I, $10.62{\sim}11.47cm^2$ for Group II, and $11.89{\sim}14.26cm^2$ for Group III. As a basic measurement method of liver size, the present study suggests measuring the superoinferior diameter for right liver lobe, the anteroposterior diameter for left liver lobe, the transverse diameter for quadrate lobe, and the caudate lobe index for caudate lobe. It is expected that this method along with its relevant reference range can be used as useful indicators in determining hepatomegaly and liver atrophy upon the diagnosis and follow-up testing of diffuse liver disease.

Objectives: This study aimed to report a case of alcoholic hepatitis with megaloblastic anemia that improved with Korean medicine treatment. Methods: A 27-year-old woman with alcoholic hepatitis and megaloblastic anemia was treated with herbal medicine, acupuncture, and moxibustion. The responses before and after treatment were evaluated using blood tests, ultrasound imaging, the Checklist Individual Strength (CIS), and the numerical rating scale (NRS). Results: Post-treatment, blood tests showed improved liver function test, lipid test, and anemia work-up. Ultrasound imaging showed improvement in the superoinferior diameter of right lobe, from 13.02 to 11.09, and the fatty liver improved. The CIS score decreased from 107 to 55. Fatigue diminished from NRS 10 to NRS 3, and dizziness dropped from NRS 5 to NRS 1. The abdominal distension slightly decreased, from NRS 7 to NRS 5. Conclusion: Korean medicine treatment might be effective for treating alcoholic hepatitis with megaloblastic anemia.

The aim of this study was to establish the diagnostic criteria of normal submandibular glands in adults. Materials included 132 sialograms of selected person from 23 to 28 years of age. In subjects each variable was measured and evaluated statistically introducing 18 items respectively. Conclusions from this study were as follows. 1. The mean diameter of main duct was 1.96㎜ in distal end and 2.71㎜ in hilar end, so the diameter of distal end was smaller than that of hilar end in submandibular glands. 2. The mean length of main duct was 42.02㎜ in submandibular glands. 3. The mean angle of main duct was 35.67 degrees with inferior border of mandible and 103.05 degrees at posterior mylohyoid portion. 4. In configurations following shape of main duct, those revealed that 39.39% of cases of the curvilinear type, 16.67% of cases of the linear type, 22.73% of cases of the sigmiod type and 21.21% of cases of the angular type. And in configurations following course of main duct, those revealed that 83.33% of cases of the smooth type and 16.67% of cases of the tortuous type. 5. The mean caliber of submandibular glands was 45.59㎜ in superoinferior height, 43.56㎜ in anteroposterior width, 28.85㎜ in mediolateral width and 33.65㎜ in extent below mandibular angle. 6. Well-delineated acinar parenchyme was observed in 77.28% of cases and well-defined tertiary ducts in 50.06% of cases. 7. There were no differences between right and left submandibular glands in size and shape of main duct and parenchymal portion, but there were great variations in each individual.

Objective: To assess the potential clinical utility of in-vivo 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in patients with various malignant and benign breast lesions. Materials and Methods: Seventeen patients with untreated primary malignant breast lesions (group I), eight patients with untreated benign breast lesions (group II) and seven normal breasts (group III) were included in this study. In-vivo 31P MRS was performed using a 1.5 Tesla MR scanner. Because of the characteristics of the coil, the volume of the tumor had to exceed 12 cc (3×2×2 cm), with a superoinferior diameter at least 3 cm. Mean and standard deviations of each metabolite were calculated and metabolite ratios, such as PME/PCr, PDE/PCr, T-ATP/PCr and PCr/T-ATP were calculated and statistically analyzed. Results: Significant differences in PME were noted between groups I and III (p=0.0213), and between groups II and III (p=0.0213). The metabolite ratios which showed significant differences were PME/PCr (between groups II and III) (p=0.0201), PDE/PCr (between groups I and III, and between groups II and III) (p=0.0172), T-ATP/PCr (between groups II and III) (p=0.0287), and PCr/T-ATP (between groups II and III) (p=0.0287). There were no significant parameters between groups I and II. Conclusion: In-vivo 31P MRS is not helpful for establishing a differential diagnosis between benign and malignant breast lesions, at least with relatively large lesions greater than 3 cm in one or more dimensions.
