환자의 병변 진단에 효과적인 CT 검사가 광범위하게 실시되고 있어, 방사선 피폭이 매우 크게 증가하였다. 환자의 피폭 선량을 줄이기 위해 다양한 방법이 강구되고 있고, 영상재구성 측면에서 반복 재구성 기법이 적용되고 있다. 반복 재구성 기법 중 대수적 재구성 기법의 정규화 인자에 대한 재구성된 단면 영상의 품질을 정규화 제곱평균제곱근 오차를 이용하여 조사하였다. 프로그램은 Visual C++로 작성하였으며 평행빔하에서 $512{\times}512$ 크기의 Shepp-Logan 두부 팬텀, 360장의 투영 영상, 1024개의 검출기 픽셀을 적용하였고, 전방투영과 역투영에 Joseph 방법을 사용하였다. 0.09-0.12의 정규화 인자에서 10회 반복으로 최소의 NRMS값 0.108을 얻었고 0.1% 및 0.2%의 잡음에 대해 8회 및 6회에서 최적의 영상을 보였다. 사용하는 팬텀에 따라 최적화된 값의 변동이 관찰되어 ART를 사용할 경우 정규화 인자에 대해서는 case-by-case로 최적의 값을 찾아야 한다는 것을 알 수 있다. 대수적 재구성 기법에서 최적의 정규화 인자를 발견함으로써 단면 영상을 획득하는데 걸리는 시간을 단축할 수 있을 것이다.

It is necessary to improve the exactness and adaptation of the working environment in the intelligent robot system. The vision sensor have been studied for this reason fur a long time. However, it is very difficult to perform the camera and robot calibrations because the three dimensional reconstruction and many processes are required for the real usages. This paper suggests the image based visual servoing to solve the problem of old calibration technique and supports OLP(Off-Line-Programming) path compensation. Virtual camera can be modeled from the real factors and virtual images obtained from virtual camera gives more easy perception process. Also, Initial path generated from OLP could be compensated by the pixel level acquired from the real and virtual, respectively. Consequently, the proposed visually assisted OLP teaching remove the calibration and reconstruction process in real working space. With a virtual simulation, the better performance is observed and the robot path error is calibrated by the image differences.

The method of Content-based Triangular Mesh Image representation in moving pictures makes better performance in prediction error ratio and visual efficiency than that of classical block matching. Specially if background and objects can be separated from image, the objects are designed by Irregular mesh. In this case this irregular mesh design has an advantage of increasing video coding efficiency. This paper presents the techniques of mesh generation, motion estimation using these mesh, uses image warping transform such as Affine transform for image reconstruction, and evaluates the content based mesh design through computer simulation.

기존 보행자 충돌사고 분석모형식은 모형식에 따라 분석결과에 대한 오차가 크게 발생하여 실용성에 많은 문제점을 내포하고 있다. 본 연구는 충돌 후 보행자의 최종정지위치를 이용하여 차량충돌속도 및 보행자 충돌위치를 최적화방법으로 분석하는 기법을 개발하였다. 충돌 후 보행자의 동역학적 선회특성에 대한 분석은 승객거동 해석 프로그램인 MADYMO을 이용하여 모의충돌실험을 통해 분석하였다. 모의충돌실험을 통해 분석된 보행자 가슴 및 머리부위의 최종정지위치와 실제사고에서 보행자 머리 및 가슴부위의 최종정지위치와의 차를 목적함수로, 차량충돌속도와 보행자 충돌위치를 설계변수로 정의하여 이를 최소로 수렴하는 최적화 모형식을 정식화한 후 최적설계 전문 소프트웨어인 VisuaIDOC2 프로그램을 이용하여 반응표면 근사최적화기법으로 목적함수를 최소로 수렴하는 차량충돌속도 및 보행자 충돌위치를 분석기법을 개발하였다. 최적화기법을 이용한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 분석기법을 이용하여 차량충돌속도 및 보행자 충돌위치를 분석한 결과. 기존 분석모형식에 비해 분석 오차율이 매우 낮아 보다 정확하고 과학적인 분석기법인 것으로 연구결과 도출되었다. 따라서, 추후 보행자 충돌사고를 분석함에 있어 기존 분석모형식이 아닌 보행자 선회특성을 고려한 최적화기법을 이용하여 보다 신속하고 정확한 분석을 수행함으로써 사고당사간의 의견대립으로 인한 시간적, 경제적 비용의 최소화는 물론 사고관련자의 권익을 보호할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose: Retrobulbar hemorrhage is a rare complication followed by blepharoplasty, trauma, orbital reconstruction, and so on. Most of the cases occur within 24 hours, half of them in the first 6 hours. Some authors have reported delayed retrobulbar hemorrhage after blepharoplasty and trauma within 1 day to 9 days. However, there have been few reports of delayed retrobulbar hemorrhage resulting from the complication of orbital reconstruction. Methods: A 22-year-old male underwent orbital floor reconstruction due to the orbital floor fracture. In 84 hours after the surgery, he complained sudden onset orbital pain and decreased visual acuity immediately after defecation. Intraocular pressure was unmeasurable due to the swelling at that time. Emergency computed tomography was performed. Results: Computed tomography revealed subperiosteal hematoma on inferior orbital wall extended to the apex. Emergency decompressive surgery was performed within 1 hour. After evacuation of hematoma, orbital symptom was improved and visual acuity was restored. Conclusion: Delayed retrobulbar hemorrhage is rare but vision-threatening. Therefore early diagnosis and treatment of delayed retrobulbar hemorrhage is thought to be crucial. The cause of delayed hemorrhage was not clear, however, valsalva maneuver might be the cause of hemorrhage.

In order to obtain a good result in Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction by immediate postoperative physical therapy, sufficient analgesia was needed. This study analyzes the analgesic effect of the intra-articular injection with ketorolac, Morphine together with bupivacaine in 80 male patients who had Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction. On completion of the surgery under spinal anesthesia, the knee was injected with 30ml of 0.25% bupivacaine. Each of the study group received ketorolac and/or morphine, either through parenteral or intra-articular. Total amount of the drug used by Patient Controlled Analgesia(PCA) and Visual Analgesia Scale(VAS) for pain were measured and analyzed. The group which received intra-articular ketorolac or Morphine had a better analgesic effect than other group which received none. The group which received both did not do better in analgesic effect. Intra-articular infusion with either ketorolac or Morphine improved postoperative analgesia in Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction surgery. However, combined injection did not offer more advantage.

Women attach great importance to the presence of a three-dimensional nipple upon completion of the breast reconstruction process. To meet patients' expectations, nipple-areolar complex reconstruction should achieve symmetry in position, size, shape, texture, and color, as well as minimizing donor-site morbidity. However, it is well known that regardless of the reconstructive technique, loss of nipple projection can be reasonably expected. We developed and evaluated a quick, simple, and innovative technique using injectable Integra Flowable Wound Matrix to increase nipple projection after reconstruction. Twenty breast cancer patients who underwent nipple reconstruction resulting in unsatisfactory projection were enrolled in our retrospective study. Nipple projection was measured at the time of surgery and after 6 and 12 months. A visual analogue scale was used to assess patients' satisfaction. Our technique yielded reliable results in terms of the long-lasting maintenance of nipple projection. This method is high-priced, but cost-effective, since one kit may suffice for three patients. Furthermore, our patients were very appreciative of this technique as a single-step, minimally invasive, painless procedure with no reported necessity of re-intervention.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate whether a deep learning reconstruction (DLR) method improves the image quality, stent evaluation, and visibility of the valve apparatus in coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) when compared with filtered back projection (FBP) and hybrid iterative reconstruction (IR) methods. Materials and Methods: CCTA images of 51 patients (mean age ± standard deviation [SD], 63.9 ± 9.8 years, 36 male) who underwent examination at a single institution were reconstructed using DLR, FBP, and hybrid IR methods and reviewed. CT attenuation, image noise, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), and stent evaluation, including 10%-90% edge rise slope (ERS) and 10%-90% edge rise distance (ERD), were measured. Quantitative data are summarized as the mean ± SD. The subjective visual scores (1 for worst -5 for best) of the images were obtained for the following: overall image quality, image noise, and appearance of stent, vessel, and aortic and tricuspid valve apparatus (annulus, leaflets, papillary muscles, and chordae tendineae). These parameters were compared between the DLR, FBP, and hybrid IR methods. Results: DLR provided higher Hounsfield unit (HU) values in the aorta and similar attenuation in the fat and muscle compared with FBP and hybrid IR. The image noise in HU was significantly lower in DLR (12.6 ± 2.2) than in hybrid IR (24.2 ± 3.0) and FBP (54.2 ± 9.5) (p < 0.001). The SNR and CNR were significantly higher in the DLR group than in the FBP and hybrid IR groups (p < 0.001). In the coronary stent, the mean value of ERS was significantly higher in DLR (1260.4 ± 242.5 HU/mm) than that of FBP (801.9 ± 170.7 HU/mm) and hybrid IR (641.9 ± 112.0 HU/mm). The mean value of ERD was measured as 0.8 ± 0.1 mm for DLR while it was 1.1 ± 0.2 mm for FBP and 1.1 ± 0.2 mm for hybrid IR. The subjective visual scores were higher in the DLR than in the images reconstructed with FBP and hybrid IR. Conclusion: DLR reconstruction provided better images than FBP and hybrid IR reconstruction.

The progress of urbanization has been accelerated by the development of machinery after the Industrial Revolution and the speed of change has been increased after the invention of computers. However, the problem of residence, the space for human life in the city, is still not complete. Ever since apartments rose as a solution for the residential problem caused by urbanization after the 1970s and now after 30 years, remodelling is preferred among the 2 choices, reconstruction and remodelling of apartments, in respect of economy and efficiency. Especially, in remodelling collective residence, construction, equipment environment, sight, etc. are considered and only after testing these various aspects can remodelling succeed. Aiming at studying the need of visual identity among many considerations in remodelling, this study investigates and analyzes the remodelling cases of domestic and overseas common residence and suggests the need of visual identity. In Korea where construction design for common residence is monotonous, expressing visual identity can be even more important. The common residence area that symbolizes its unique characteristic will elevate not only its economic value but also the psychological value of its residents.

Computational integral imaging(CII) has the advantage of generating the volumetric information of the 3D scene without optical devices. However, the reconstruction process of CII requires increasingly larger sizes of reconstructed images and then the computational cost increases as the distance between the lenslet array and the reconstructed output plane increases. In this paper, to overcome this problem, we propose a novel CII method using a depth conversion technique. The proposed method can move a far 3D object near the lenslet array and reduce the computational cost dramatically. To show the usefulness of the proposed method, we carry out the preliminary experiment and its results are presented.
