The purpose of this study was to evaluate the radiolucency for the phantom output to the 3D printing technology. The 3D printing technology was applied for FDM (fused deposition modeling) method and was used the material of ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) resin. The phantom was designed in cylindrical uniformity. An image uniformity was measured by a cross-sectional images of the 3D printed phantom obtained from the CT equipment. The evaluation of radiolucency was measured exposure dose by the inserted ion-chamber from the 3D printed phantom. As a results, the average of uniformity in the cross-sectional CT image was 2.70 HU and the correlation of radiolucency between PMMA CT phantom and 3D printed ABS phantom is found to have a high correlation to 0.976. In the future, this results will be expected to be used as the basis for the phantom production of the radiation quality control by used 3D printing technology.

In diagnostic radiology, the imaging system has been changed from film/screen to digital system. However, the method for removing scatter radiation such as anti-scatter grid has not kept pace with this change. Therefore, authors have devised the indirect flat panel detector (FPD) system with net-like lead in substrate layer which can remove the scattered radiation. In clinical context, there are many radiographic examinations with angulated incident X-ray. However, our proposed FPD has net-like lead foil so the vertical lead foil to the angulate incident X-ray would have bad effect on its performance. In this study, we identified the effect of vertical/horizontal lead foil component on the novel system's performance and improved the structure of novel system for clinical usage with angulated incident X-ray. Grid exposure factor and image contrast were calculated to investigate various structure of novel system using Monte Carlo simulation software when the incident X-ray was tilted ($0^{\circ}$, $15^{\circ}$, and $30^{\circ}$ from the detector plane). More photons were needed to obtain same image quality in the novel system with vertical lead foil only then the system with horizontal lead foil only. An optimal structure of novel system having different heights of its vertical and horizontal lead foil component showed improved performance compared with the novel system in a previous study. Therefore, the novel system will be useful in a clinical context with the angulated incident X-ray if the height and direction of lead foil in the substrate layer are optimized as the condition of conventional radiography.

CdS는 $CuInSe_2$계, CdTe계 이종접합 태양전지의 junction partner로 많이 이용되어 왔다. CdS는 전극으로 쓰일 뿐만 아니라 빛을 투과시키는 창문층으로 사용되어 높은 변환 효율을 나타낸다. 이종접합 태양전지에서 창문층은 가시광 영역에서 광투과율이 높고, 전기적으로 비저항이 낮아야 에너지 손실 없이 태양광을 광흡수층까지 투과시킬 수 있다. CdS 박막은 CBD법(solution growth technique), 진공증착법(vacuum evaporation), 스퍼터법(sputtering), 스프레이 열분해법(spray pyrolysis), 전착법(electrodeposition)에 의해 제조되고, 그 중 용액성장법(solution growth technique)이라고도 불리는 CBD법(chemical bath deposition)을 이용하여 CdS 박막을 제조하였다. CBD법은 다른 방법에 비해 제조 과정이 비교적 간단할 뿐만 아니라 제조 단가가 저렴하고, 넓은 면적의 박막 제조가 가능하며 재현성도 우수하다는 장점이 있다. CdS 박막을 제조하기 위한 cadmuim 이온공급원으로는 $CdSO_4$를 사용하였고 sulfur 이온공급원으로는 $SC(NH_2)_2$를 사용하였다. CBD법에서 박막의 물성에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 요인인 sulfur 이온공급원과 cadmium 이온공급원의 비, 용액의 온도, pH를 변화시켜 CdS 박막을 제조하였다. 각각의 조건에 의해 제조된 CdS의 박막의 두께는 Tencor P-1을 이용하여 측정되었고, UV-Visible spectrometer를 이용하여 파장에 따른 광투과율을 측정하였다. CdS 박막의 결정 구조를 조사하기 위해 X선 회절분석(XRD ; X-ray diffraction)을 하였고, AFM(Atomic Force Microscope)으로 표면 특성을 관찰하였다.

고주파 스퍼터링 방법에 의하여 상온에서 Si(100)기판 위에 AIN막을 형성하였다. 기판의 온도, 고주파 출력, 스퍼터링 시간, 질소의 비율을 변화인자로 해서 각 조건하에서 제작된 AIN의 결정질을 X선 회절법, 적외선 분광법, 전자현미경으로 상호비교 하였다. 자외선 투과법에 의해, 제작된 AIN 막의 금지대 폭은 4.27eV 이었다. 질소 비율에 따른 AIN 막두께의 변화는 질소비율 40∼60%에서 급격하게 일어났다.

Digital Radiograpy ＆ Fluoroscopy(DRF 또는 DR 또는 DF)는 cone beam을 이용하여 인체를 투과한 X선을 영상증배관(Image Intensifying Tube： IIT)을 통하여 가시광선으로 변환시킨 후 영상을 카메라로 보내고, 이곳에서 발생한 영상정보를 디지털로 처리하여 모니터를 통해 눈에 보이는 영상으로 만드는 방법으로 IIT에 기초한 디지털 방사선 촬영술이라고도 한다. DF 방법은 즉시 영상 표시와 진단이 가능하기 때문에 즉시성이 요구되는 심장이나 두복부 등의 순환기 분야에서 DSA(Digital Subtraction Angiography) 장비로 이용되고 있고, 순환기뿐만 아니라 위를 중심으로 한 소화관(식도, 위, 소장, 대장, 직장)의 분야에서 적용 가능하다. (중략)

In this research, we introduce a novel approach that employs a 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) model to predict the permeability of Gas Diffusion Layers (GDLs). For training the model, we create an artificial dataset of GDL representative volume elements (RVEs) by extracting morphological characteristics from actual GDL images obtained through X-ray tomography. These morphological attributes involve statistical distributions of porosity, fiber orientation, and diameter. Subsequently, a permeability analysis using the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) is conducted on a collection of 10,800 RVEs. The 3D CNN model, trained on this artificial dataset, well predicts the permeability of actual GDLs.

This case demonstrates the rare occurrence of a radiolucent temporary resin bridge aspiration in adults while they are in a conscious and awaken state and the resultant formation of inflammatory polyps. Although no unique findings were noted in a chest x-ray, careful history taking accompanied by physical examinations can lead to clinical suspicion of foreign body aspiration in an earlier stage. Moreover, flexible bronchoscopy is a tool useful not only for the evaluation process but also for managing the aspirated foreign material.

The purposes of this study are to estimate thestrength of concrete and quantify the deterioration of concrete by a unique X-ray technique with a contrast medium. In order to estimate the strength of concrete, specimens with different water-cement ratios were fabricated using non-air-entrained concrete, air-entrained concrete and mortar to determine the relationship between their compressive strength and the transit dose obtained by the X-ray technique. Also, an experiment to quantify deterioration was carried out on specimens that were subjected to freezing and thawing action to different levels of dynamic elastic modulus. As a result of this experiment, estimation of the strength and relative dynamic elastic modulus of deteriorated mortar, concrete and air-entrained concrete was found feasible by measuring the transit dose by the X-ray technique.

This study examined the change in the attenuation of X-rays with the ROI (Region of Interest) in DR (Digital Radiography) according to the stomach contents by manufacturing a tissue equivalent material phantom to simulate real stomach tissue based on the assumption that there is some attenuation of X-rays and a difference in imaging quality according to the stomach contents. The transit dosage by the attenuation of X-rays decreased with increasing protein thickness, which altered the average ROI values in the film and DR images. A comparison of the change in average ROI values of the film and DR image showed that the image in film caused larger density changes with varying thickness of protein than the image by DR. The results indicate that NPO (nothing by mouth) is more important in film system than in DR system.
