  • 핵의학검사에서 $^{131}I$은 갑상선암 및 질환의 진단, 치료등 핵의학 검사에서 많이 사용되고 있다. $^{131}I$${\gamma}$선과 ${\beta}^-$선을 방출하여 검사와 치료를 할 수 있고, 높은 집적율과 신장을 통한 빠른 배설이 용이 하지만, $^{131}I$(364 keV)은 $^{99m}Tc$(140 keV)보다 고에너지이기 때문에 작업을 수행 시 조작 및 투여 과정에서 $^{99m}Tc$보다 술자의 피폭을 줄이기 위해 외부피폭 방어의 3요소인 거리, 시간, 차폐 중에 차폐에 주안점을 두어 $^{131}I$ 조작 시 차 폐체 착용 전과 후의 피폭선량의 차이를 비교하고자 한다. Apron(보통 Pb 0.5 mm) 착용 시 $^{99m}Tc$은 90%이상이 차폐가 되지만, $^{131}I$은 고에너지이기 때문에 차폐효과가 비교적 낮고, 고용량의 경우 산란선(2차) 및 제동방사선의 영향으로 오히려 더 피폭을 받을 수 있다. 하지만 저용량(74 MBq) 고에너지의 경우 이에 대한 특별한 보고나 Guide Line이 마련되어 있지 않아, $^{131}I$ 조작 시 Apron 착용 유무에 따른 술자의 피폭선량을 정량적으로 분석하고자 한다. 본원 핵의학과에서 2014년 6월부터 2014년 12월까지 7개월 동안 갑상선암 치료 및 진단을 위한 저용량$^{131}I$을 투여하기 위해 방문한 갑상선암 환자를 대상으로 준비과정부터 투여 시까지 연구기간 동안 갑상선, 가슴, 고환 3곳에 Apron 안쪽과 바깥쪽 각각 1개씩 총 6개의 TLD를 부착한 뒤 $^{131}I$검사 과정부터 투여 시 까지의 방사선 피폭선량을 측정하였다. 총 작업시간은 설명시간 3분, 분배시간 1분, 투여시간 1분으로 각각 1인당 5분이내로 설정하였다. TLD 위치설정은 일반적으로 피폭선량을 측정하는 가슴과 방사선 감수성이 높은 갑상선 및 고환으로 설정하였다. 준비과정은 $^{131}I$$2m{\ell}$ 주사기를 이용해 74MBq을 분배한 뒤 생리식염수와 희석해 $2m{\ell}$의 용량을 만들어 분배한다. $^{131}I$을 분배 후 환자에게 투여 시 컵에 물을 $100m{\ell}$ 담고 분배한 $^{131}I$을 희석하여 환자 1 m 정도 거리를 두고, 경구투여 한다. 그리고 경구투여 한 $2m{\ell}$ 주사기와 컵을 폐기하는 과정을 Apron과 TLD를 착용한 상태에서 시행하였다. Apron과 TLD는 방사선 피폭이 미치지 않는 보관실에 따로 보관하였고, 서울방사선 서비스에 의뢰하여 피폭선량을 측정하였다. 연구기간 동안 저용량 $^{131}I$ 검사 시 갑상선, 가슴, 고환 부위에 Apron 안과 밖d[착용한 TLD의 매월 누적선량을 인원수로 나눈 결과를 가지고, SPSS Version. 12.0K를 이용해 Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test를 사용하여 통계를 시행하였다. 그 결과 갑상선(p = 0.345), 가슴(p = 0.686), 고환(p = 0.715)은 모두 p > 0.05으로 유의한 차이가 없음을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 연구기간 동안의 총 누적선량의 변화를 백분율로 환산하였을 때, 갑상선 -23.5%, 가슴 -8.3%, 고환 19.0%로 나타났다. Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test를 사용한 결과 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다(p > 0.05). 또한 7개월간의 누적선량으로 차폐율을 계산 했을 때 에는 Apron 안쪽과 바깥쪽의 피폭선량의 변화가 불규칙적으로 나타나는 결과를 보였다. 이 결과는 백분율로 표현 시 변화폭이 커보이지만, 누적 피폭선량이 소수점 이하이므로 큰 변화라고 보기 어렵다. 그러므로 고에너지 저용량 $^{131}I$ 투여 시 Apron을 착용유무와 상관없이 일정한 거리를 두고 최대한 빠른 시간 내에 투여를 종료하는 것이 피폭선량을 줄이는 데 도움이 될 것이다. 본 연구는 $^{131}I$ 투여시간을 1인당 각 5분 이내로 투여 할 수 있도록 제한하고, 거리를 1 m로 일정하게 하여 작업 할 수 있도록 하였으나 통계 시 N수가 적어서 비모수적인 방법으로 통계를 시행함으로써 정확한 결과를 얻기에 부족한 부분이 있었다. 또한 저용량 $^{131}I$ 투여 시 각 1인당 피폭선량을 직독식 선량으로 측정하지 못하고, TLD를 이용한 누적선량으로 측정한 결과 값이므로 전자선량계 및 포켓선량계를 이용한 측정이 이루어진다면 더 효과적인 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • 방어의 배육 보통육과 측육 혈합육을 $2^{\circ}C$에 보장하여 두고 선도변화 총계별로 단백질의 조성과 각축의 구성 및 유리아미노산의 조성을 분석하였으며, 건향질단백질과 근원섬유단백질에 대하여는 구성단백질의 분포변화를 확인하기 위하여 $NaDodSO_4$변한 다음, polyacrylamide겔 전기영동상을 비교 해석함으로써 적색육어류의 선도변화와 보통육 및 혈합육의 단백질조성 변화와의 관련성을 검토하였다. K-값과 휘발성염기질소 및 pH값으로 판정했을 때, 혈합육은 보통육에 비하여 선도변화가 빨랐다. 사후 선도변화와 더불어 근원질단백질과 노원섬유단백질은 감소하는 반면, 세포내잔사단백질은 상대적으로 증가하였으며, 이러한 변화는 보통육에 비하여 혈합육이 훨씬 심한 편이었다. Sodium dodecyl sulfate 화한 단백질을 polyacrylamide겔 전기영동함으로 분석한 결과, 보통육의 근원질단백질은 16개 성분, 그리고 혈합육의 근원질단백질은 12개 성분으로 구성되어 있었으며, 보장 10일째부터 보통육의 근원질단백질은에는 41,000dalton과 18,000dalton의 양분이 조금씩 증가하였고, 26,000 dalton과 23,500 dalton 및 23,000 dalton되 각 성분은 점차 감소하였다. 혈합육의 근원질단백질에 있어서는 49,000 dalton의 성분은 감소하였고 47.000 dalton의 성분은 새로이 형성되었으며, 26,000 dalton의 성분은 소감하였다. 근원섬유단백질의 전기영동분석결과에 의하면, 보통육의 근원섬유단백질은 17개 성분, 그리고 혈합육의 근원조직단백질은 16개의 성분으로 구성되어 있었다. 보장 10일에부터 보통육의 근원섬유단백질중에는 40,000 dalton의 성분이 증가하였고, 37,500 dalton의 성분은 점차 감소하였으며, 32,000 dalton의 성분은 새로히 출현하였다. 혈합육의 근원섬유단백질은 보장 9일째부터 58,000 dalton과 64,000 dalton의 성분은 그 농도가 단가하였으며, 17,500의 light chain-2 단백질은 소감하였고, 32,000 dalton의 성분은 새로이 출현하였다. 이 같은 전기영동상의 변화는 근원질단백질이 근원섬유단백질에 비하여 빨랐으며, 근원섬유단백질의 경화에 있어서는 혈합육쪽이 보통육에 비하여 빨랐다. 양 육의 단백질을 구성하는 아미노산을 분석한 결과, 즉살한 방어의 보통육 단백질은 글루탐산, 아스팔트산, 류신. 알기닌, 알라닌 등은 그 양이 어느 정도 많았고, 프롤린과 트?토판은 그 양이 적었으며, 혈합육에 있어서도 비슷한 경형이었다. 그리고 10일이 경과한 보통육에 있어서는 글루탐산과 아스팔트산이 현저히 감소하였으며, 9일이 경과한 혈합육에 있어서는 알라닌, 글리신, 그리고 알기닌이 현저히 감소하였다. 유리아미노산의 조성을 분석 결과, 즉살한 방어의 보통육중에는 히스티딘이 총유리아미노산의 약 $63\%$를, 그리고 혈합육중에는 타우린이 총유리아미노산의 약 $67\%$를 차지하는 양을 보였다. 그리고 $2^{\circ}C$에서 10일이 경과했을 때, 보통육에서는 히스티딘, 발린, 타우린이 증가하였으며, 알라닌, 류신 및 글리신 등은 조금 감소하였다. 같은 온도에서 9일이 경과한 혈합육에서는 타우린, 페닐알라닌, 글리신은 증하였으며, 히스티딘, 알라닌, 세린 등은 감소하였다.

  • Dichlorprop(DCPP)는 phenoxyalkanoic acid계열로서 인체에 유해한 것으로 알려진 fenoprop, 2,4-D 및 daminozide의 대체 약제로 사용되어온 auxin 활성 생장조정제로 과수의 낙과 방지에 이용된다. 하지만, DCPP의 과다 사용은 과실의 숙기를 촉진시키며 연화 및 저장력을 현저히 저하하는 부정적인 영향을 나타내며, 제초제의 특성을 나타내기 때문에 농산물에 과다 사용하여 잔류허용기준을 초과할 경우, 인체에 유해할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 생장조정제로 사용되고 있는 DCPP에 대하여 국내에 유통되는 농산물을 대상으로 잔류 실태 조사 연구를 실시하고자 기존 식품공전 분석법을 개선하여 신속하고 효율적인 분석법으로 재확립 하였다. 분석법 검증에 사용된 시료는 농산물의 메트릭스를 대표할 수 있는 농산물 5종(감귤, 감자, 고추, 대두 및 현미)을 사용하였다. 검체에 아세톤을 가하고 산성화시켜 추출한 후 산-염기 액-액 분배법을 이용해 추출, 정제 및 농축 과정을 거쳤다. 농축에 의해 얻어진 잔류물은 메탄올로 재용해한 후, 이중 2 mL를 취해 $BF_3$-메탄올 용액으로 메틸화한 후, 헥산 및 5% 염화나트륨을 사용해 최종 정제를 거친 용액을 헥산으로 재용해하여 GC/ECD에 주입하였다. 기기분석은 DB-17 중간 극성 칼럼과 운반 기체로 질소 가스를 사용하였고, split-less 모드 하에 $1{\mu}L$를 주입하여 승온 조건으로 ECD에 의해 측정하였다. 또한, GC/MS를 통해 확인시험을 수행 하였으며, 모든 검증은 CAC 가이드라인(CAC/GL 40, 1993) 규정에 따라 실시하였다. 그 결과, DCPP의 정량 한계는 모든 검체에서 0.05 mg/kg 수준이었고, 회수율은 감귤89.5-94.3%, 감자 79.4-87.4%, 고추 90.5-102.2%, 대두 78.8-101.1%, 현미 90.5-100.4%였으며, 변동계수는 감귤 2.5-9.5%, 감자 1.4-2.6%, 고추 2.7-3.9%, 대두 3.4-7.3%, 현 미 1.2-2.1%로 나타났다. 이상의 결과는 국제식품규격위원회 가이드라인 규정(CAC/GL 40, 1993)에 만족하는 수준으로, 새롭게 개선된 DCPP 분석법은 향후 국내 유통 농산물을 대상으로 한 생장조정제 DCPP의 잔류 실태 조사 연구에 활용될 계획이다.

  • 유전가열을 이용한 내부가열로서 어육연제품을 조리${\codt}$살균함과 동시에 내부수분을 확산${\codt}$이탈시켜 제품의 수분활성을 조절하여 상온보장이 가능한 보장성 어묵을 가공하는 방법과 제품개발을 위한 원료첨가물의 배합 및 가공조건을 검토한 실험결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. (1) 고등어 연육의 첨가물 배합조건은 고기풀 100에 대하여 전분(옥수수 전분) $10\%$, 소금 $1.5%$, MSG $0.6\%$, sorbitol $3.0\%$, 설탕 $2.0\%$일 때가 가장 적당하였다. (2) 연제품의 형상과 크기는 두께 0.8cm, 직경 8cm의 원반형이 균일한 가열과 팽화 및 표면경화를 막는데 가장 적당하였고, 이것은 연육을 8cm 직경의 원주형으로 충전하여 이것을 열탕중에서 $2{\sim}3$분간 가열처리하여 gel시킨 후 0.8cm 두께로 절단하여 만들수 있으므로 조작이 매우 편리하였다. 동시에 열탕처리는 유전 가열시간을 단축시키는 효과도 있었다. (3) 유전가열은 $5{\sim}6$분간을 2분, $1{\codt}5$분, $1{\codt}5$분 및 1분씩으로 간헐적으로 행하는 것이 제품의 성상과 수분활성 조절 및 살균효과가 좋았다. 1단계 가열에 의하여 확산${\codt}$이탈된 수분은 $60^{\circ}C$, 3m/sec의 열풍으로 2분간 건조하고 계속적으로 600 W 전열기로 $5{\sim}6$분간 가열 표면배소와 함께 최종적으로 수분활성을 조절할 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.

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.

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.

  • 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.

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.

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.

  • 우리나라의 경제가 더욱 성장하고, 항공기의 수가 점차 증가하면, 항공기 집행사건은 앞으로 늘어날 수 있다. 이 글은 다수의 사례가 축적되어 있는 선박집행에 관한 법리를 차용하여 항공기 집행에 관한 법리를 제시하기 위한 것이다. 항공기, 경량항공기에 대한 집행은 기본적으로 부동산 선박 집행을 준용하고, 초경량비행장치, 외국항공기에 대한 집행은 동산집행방법에 의한다. 항공기 집행에는 강제경매, 임의경매, 유치권에 기한 경매 등이 있다. 항공기에 대한 강제경매는 채권자가 금전의 지급을 목적으로 하는 청구권의 만족을 얻기 위하여 채무자 소유의 항공기에 대하여 행하는 강제집행을 말한다. 항공기에 대한 강제경매는 압류 당시에 그 항공기가 있는 곳을 관할하는 지방법원을 집행법원으로 하고, 이는 전속관할이다. 법원은 경매개시결정을 한때에는 집행관에게 항공기등록증명서 그 밖에 항공기운항에 필요한 문서를 받아 법원에 제출하도록 명하여야 한다. 강제경매개시결정이 있은 날부터 2월이 지나기까지 집행관이 항공기등록증명서등을 넘겨받지 못하고 항공기가 있는 곳이 분명하지 아니한 때에는 집행법원이 강제경매절차를 취소할 수 있다. 채권자 최고가매수신고인 차순위매수신고인 매수인의 동의가 있으면, 법원은 영업상의 필요 그 밖에 상당한 이유가 있다고 인정한 때에는 채무자의 신청에 따라 항공기의 운항을 허가할 수 있다. 법원은 채권자의 신청에 따라 항공기를 감수하거나 보존에 필요한 처분을 할 수 있다. 채무자가 민사집행법 49조 2호 4호의 서류를 제출하고 압류채권자 및 배당요구채권자의 채권과 집행비용에 해당하는 보증을 매수신고 전에 제공한 때에는 법원은 신청에 따라 배당절차 외의 절차를 취소하여야 한다. 항공기를 목적으로 하는 담보권 실행을 위한 경매(임의경매) 절차에는 선박 항공기 강제경매에 관한 규정과 담보권 실행을 위한 부동산 선박 경매에 관한 규정이 준용된다. 임의경매에서는 집행권원이 필요하지 않고, 신청에도 집행력 있는 정본은 요구하지 않는다. 또한, 집행법원이 담보권 및 피담보채권의 존부를 심사하여 담보권의 부존재 무효, 피담보채권의 불발생 소멸 등과 같은 실체상의 하자가 있으면 경매개시결정을 할 수 없다. 나아가 이러한 사유는 매각불허가 사유에 해당하고, 또 이를 간과하여 매각허가결정이 확정되고 매수인이 매각대금을 완납하여 소유권이전등록을 마쳤다 하더라도 매수인은 매각항공기의 소유권을 취득하지 못한다. 집행법원은 여러 대의 항공기 상호간의 이용관계에서 견련성이 있는 경우에 한하여 여러 대의 항공기에 대한 일괄경매를 할 수 있다(대법원 2001. 8. 22.자 2001마3688 결정). 항공기에 대한 유치권자도 경매를 신청할 수 있다. 형식적 경매의 절차는 담보권 실행을 위한 경매의 예에 따라 실시한다. 그러나 공항시설 사용료와 항공기 사이의 견련관계를 인정할 수 없으므로, 공항공사의 항공기에 대한 유치권은 성립하지 않는다(대법원 2014. 4. 10. 선고 2011다29291 판결). 유치권에 의한 경매도 항공기 위의 부담을 소멸시키는 것을 법정매각조건으로 하여 실시되고, 우선채권자뿐만 아니라 일반채권자의 배당요구도 허용되며, 유치권자는 일반채권자와 동일한 순위로 배당을 받을 수 있다.

  • 여포와 난포의 성숙, 배란과 착상, 임신의 유지와 태아의 성장 발달, 분만 및 유선발육과 비유 등 일련의 생식현상에서 있어서 성선자극호르몬과 스테로이드 호르몬의 작용이 중추적인 역할을 한다는 사실은 오래 전부터 알려져왔다. 그러나 이러한 일련의 현상에 고전적인 호르몬 외에도 다수의 성장인자가 관여되고 있음이 최근의 연구 결과 밝혀지고 있다. 생식기관에서 성장인자들은 대부분 autocrine/paracrine mode로 작용하여, 성선자극호르몬과 스테로이드 호르몬의 작용을 매개하거나 이들 호르몬 등과 교호적인 작용(synergy)을 한다. 생식기관 내 insulin-like growth factor(IGF) system은 최근 가장 활발히 연구된 분야 중의 하나로 생식현상의 전반에 걸쳐 중요한 역할을 하고 있음이 밝혀졌다. 본 지면에서는 IGF system에 관한 개괄적인 정보를 소개하고 현재까지 보고된 intrauterine IGF system에 관한 연구를 요약하고자 한다. IGF family는 IGF-I과 IGF-II ligands, 두종류의 IGF receptors(수용체), 그리고 지금까지 발견된 6종류의 IGF-binding proteins(IGFBPs)로 이루어져 있다. IGF-I과 IGF-II는 proinsulin과 상동한 구조를 가진 peptide로서 포도당과 아미노산 운반을 자극하는 등 insulin과 유사한 작용을 한다. 이 외에도 IGFs는 세포분열촉진제(mitogens)로서 여러 형태의 세포에 걸쳐 세포증식을 자극하고, 세포의 분화(differentiation)과 세포기능의 발현에 관여한다. IGFs는 간과 주로 messenchymal cells에서 발현되어 endocrine mode는 물론 autocrine/paracrine mode로 거의 모든 조직에 작용한다. IGF 수용체는 두종류가 알려져 있는데 type I IGF receptor는 tyrosine kinase로서 IGF-I과 IGF-II에 공히 high-affinity를 나타내고, 상기한 대부분의 IGFs의 작용을 매개한다. Type II IGF receptor 혹은 IGF-II/mannose-6-phosphate receptor는 두개의 서로 다른 binding sites를 가지고 있는데 IGF-II binding site는 IGF-II에만 high-affinity를 나타낸다. Type II IGF receptor의 주요 역할은 IGF-II를 lysosomal targeting하여 ligand를 파괴하는데 있다. 체액 속의 IGFs는 대부분 IGFBP에 결합되어 있다. IGFBPs는 IGF의 저장/운반체 혹은 IGF 작용을 조절하는 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있으나 개개 IGFBP의 역할에 대해서는 지극히 제한된 정보만이 알려져 있다. IGFBPs의 IGF ligands에의 affinity는 IGF receptors의 IGFs에의 affinity보다 크기 때문에 대부분의 in vitro 상황 하에서 IGFBPs는 IGF 작용을 억제한다. IGFBP에 결합되어 있는 IGF가 어떤 기작에 의해 IGFBP로부터 분리되어 IGF receptor에 도달하는지는 알려지지 않고 있으나, 혈액과 조직액에 들어있는 불특정 IGFBP protease activity는 IGF의 방출과정에서 일역을 하는 것으로 믿어지고 있다. 최근 연구보고에 의하면 특정 in vitro 상황 하에서 IGFBP-1, -3, -5 등은 IGF와 무관한 작용도 있다는 증빙이 있어 IGF system의 또 다른 차원을 예고하고 있다. IGF family members의 mRNAs & proteins는 영장류, 설치류 및 가축의 자궁조직과 수태물(conceptus)에서 발현되어 자궁과 태아의 성장 발달에 중요한 역할을 한다. 자궁조직의 IGF system의 발현은 성선호르몬, 국소 생리조절인자 등에 의해 발현시기와 장소의 특이성이 결정되며, 발현된 IGFs와 IGFBPs는 autocrine/paracrine mode로 자궁조직에 작용하기도 하고, 자궁강에 분비되어 수태물의 성장 발달에 관여한다. 착상을 전후하여 수태물에서도 IGF system이 발현되는데 개개 IGF family member의 발현 시기는 모체로부터 유래된 mRNA의 유무, 수태물 자체의 genetic programming, 모체와의 상호작용 등에 의해 결정되고, IGFs의 작용 부위 역시 시간(생리적 상태)과 장소의 특이성이 있다. 이와같이 conceptus IGF system의 발현이 시간적, 공간적으로 조절되고있다는 사실은 IGFs가 수태물의 성장 발달에 일역을 한다는 가설을 간접적으로 지지해 준다. 자궁조직과 수태물에서 발현된 IGFs는 세포의 증식과 분화, 포도당과 아미노산의 운반과 단백질합성, placental lactogen과 prolactin 등과 같은 유선자극호르몬의 생성을 자극하고 스테로이드 호르몬의 합성에도 관여한다. 태아의 성장 발달에 있어서 IGFs의 역할은 embryo의 IGF-I, IGF-II, 혹은 IGF receptor gene을 homologous recombination technique에 의해 파괴(gene targeting)하여을 때의 결과로써 입증되었다. 생쥐의 IGF and/or IGF-II gene 혹은 IGF receptor gene을 파괴했을 때 출생 전후 모두 성장 발달이 지연되며 출생시 무게는 정상치의 30-60% 수준에 머물고, 특히 type I IGF receptor gene 혹은 IGF-I과 IGF-II genes를 모두 파괴했을 경우에는 출생 후 곧 치사한다. 자궁 내의 IGFBPs는 IGF ligands를 자궁 내에 제한시키거나 IGFs의 receptor binding을 억제하는 negative regulators 역할을 하는 것으로 믿어지고 있다. 그러나 영장류의 자궁에서 IGFBP-I과 같은 특정 IGFBP는 IGFs보다 월등히 많은 양이 발현 분비되고 있는 것으로 추산되고 있으며, 또한 이 단백질은 모체탈락막세포에서 분비되는 주요 단백질 중의 하나라는 점을 감안할 때 IGFBP-I이 IGF과 무관한 작용이 있을 가능성도 배제할 수 없다. 따라서 IGFBPs의 역할 규명은 IGF system을 이해하는데 중요한 부분을 차지하고 있어 향후 이 분야의 연구에 많은 기대와 촛점이 모여지고 있다.
