This paper describes the basic data measurements for total body irradiation with 6 Mv photon beam including compensators design. The technique uses bilateral opposing fields with tissue compensators for the head, neck, lungs, and legs from the hip to toes. In vivo dosimetry was carried out for determining absorbed dose at various regions in 7 patients using diode detectors(MULTIDOSE,k Model 9310, MULTIDATA Co., USA). As a results, the dose uniformity of${\pm}3.5{\%}$(generally, within${\pm}10{\%}$can be achieved with out total body irradiation technique.

To characterize the biological tissues, the new methods to measure the frequency dependent attenuation are presented in this paper. In general, ultrasonic phase information was assumed by linear function of the frequency. But, the minimum phase function which characterizes the frequency dispersion of tissue was derived in [l]. It is very significant to measure the attenuation by using the minimum phase function to characterize the frequency dispersion of tissue. Therefore, a more efficient method measuring the frequency dependent attenuation are proposed by using the estimated sound velocity and polarity of reflected signal. To verify the algorithms, pulse reflection experiments are performed.

Muscle based face image synthesis is one of the most realistic approach to realize life-like agent in computer. Facial muscle model is composed of facial tissue elements and muscles. In this model, forces are calculated effecting facial tissue element by contraction of each muscle strength, so the combination of each muscle parameter decide a specific facial expression. Now each muscle parameter is decided on trial and error procedure comparing the sample photograph and generated image using our Muscle-Editor to generate a specific face image. In this paper, we propose the strategy of automatic estimation of facial muscle parameters from 2D marker movement using neural network. This also 3D motion estimation from 2D point or flow information in captered image under restriction of physics based face model.

This paper dealt with the macroscopical and histopathological observations on the polycystic kidney occurred in a Korean native calf aged about a year. The results summarized are as follows: 1. In macroscopical findings, numerous cysts in the bilateral kidneys were seen under the renal capsule, and the cysts were various in size and clear or cloudy in their contents. The cysts in the inner area of the renal cortex were smaller than those of the outer area of the renal cortex in size and in number. 2. In microscopical findings, marked dilatations of Bowman's spaces and convoluted tubules were prominant feature. Numerous cysts with or without eosinophilic materials were contained atrophic glomerulus. prolferation of fibrous connective tissue, atrophy of convoluted tubules were also observed. Inner walls of the cysts were surrounded by cuboidal cells, sguamous cells or fibrous connective tissue. 3. This case was regarded as congenital polycystic kidney belonged to type III of Osathanondh and Potter.

Two color or cDNA microarrays are extensively used to study relative expression levels of thousands of genes simultaneously. 0かy two tissue samples can be hybridized on a single microarray slide. Thus, a microarray slide necessarily forms an incomplete block design with block size two when more than two tissue samples are under study. We also need to control for variability in gene expression values due to the two dyes. Thus, red and green dyes form the second blocking factor in addition to slides. General design problem for these microarray experiments is discussed in this paper. Designs for factorial cDNA microarrays are also discussed.

The in vitro construction of osteo-articular large implants combining biomaterials and cells is of great interest since these tissues have limited regeneration capability. But the development of such organoids is particularly challenging, especially in the later time of the culture, when the extracellular matrix has almost filled the initial porous network. The fluid flow needed to efficiently perfuse the sample can then not be achieved using only the hydraulic driving force. In this paper, we investigate the interest of using an electric field to promote mass transport through the scaffold at the late stage of the culture. Based on the resolution of the electrokinetics equations, this study provides an estimation of the necessary electric driving force to reach a sufficient oxygen perfusion through the sample, thus analyzing the feasibility of this concept. The possible consequences of such electric fields on cellular activities are then discussed.

In this paper, we characterize the mechanical properties of PCL strand which is made by oscillating nozzle for tissue engineering scaffold. In order to increase the mechanical properties of the PCL strand, we designed an oscillating nozzle system for the 3D plotting system. First, we check the effect of the nozzle speed (3 to 8 mm/sec), frequency (0 or 300 Hz) and the oscillating amplitude (0 or 100 V) on the diameter of the PCL strand. Second, we observe the effect of the frequency (0, 100, 200 and 300 Hz) and the oscillating amplitude (0, 50 and 100 V) on the mechanical property of PCL strand. The mechanical properties and surface morphology of PCL strand made by oscillating nozzle are compared with the PCL strand made by normal nozzle using Nano-UTM and SEM.

The senses that a doctor can feel is limited in MIS(Minimal Invasive Surgery) which guarantees the fast recovery of the patient and minimal incision for going in and out of instruments through the tissue of the patient. In particular, the surgical robotic teleoperation system developed recently serves with only the information of eyesight and auditory sense. Therefore force-reflection is the most demanded element of the senses in manipulating surgical instruments. In this paper, we designed the Master system and the 2 D.O.F grasper for the robotic teleoperation system(Slave) that has two force sensors on the grasper. Particularly, we focused on serve to master's handle with the contact force between tissue and the grasper of Slave.

This paper shows how to implement force reflection for a needle insertion problem. The target is a needle spine biopsy simulator for tumor inspection by needle insertion. Simulated force is calculated from the relationship of volume graphic data and the orientation and Position of the needle, and it is generated using PHANTOM$^{TM}$. To generate realistic force reflection, the directional force of the needle has been generated by tissue model. The other rotational force is generated using a pivot to keep the needle in the initial inserted direction after puncturing the skin. Since the used haptic device has limitation for generating high stiffness and large damping, scale downed model and digital filter are used to stabilize the system.m.

This paper reviews the mechanisms effecting host defense in the mammary gland and assesses their possible in preventing of bovine mastitis. The streak canal is the first line of defense against invading mastitis pathogens, providing a physical barrier and antibacterial substances. The milk leukocytes are a second defense line by ingesting pathogens breached the streak canal by multiplication, physical passage, and propulsion during milking. Leukocytosis in milk and enhancement of the phagocytic defense machanisms of the udder were accomplished by inserting intramammary devices. Milk antibodies serum derived and synthesized in mamma tissue aggregate and opsonise bacteria, agglutinate and neutralise toxins, and inhibit. binding of bacteria to epitherial surfaces. Vaccination generally has been unsuccessful because protection is not absolute, but immunization is useful in controlling specific pathogens. Immunostimulant to enhance locally the protective nature of antibody-producing plasma cells concentrated in internal teat end tissue may be effective in reducing the occurrence of infection, but ineffective in preventing intramammary infections.
