기존의 광류 (Optical flow)는 국소적 처리를 시작점으로 하는 bottom-up수법에 의해서 구하였다. 이에 반해, 본 논문은 영상유체보존식과 함수 전개법에 의해 영상 전체의 움직임을 차수가 낮은 모드로 부터 순차적으로 전개하는 bottom-down수법을 새로운 수법으로 제안한다. 의료 영상에 있어서 명도는 움직임이 있어도 불변으로 유지하려는 경우가 많다. 그러나 이 같은 영상계열에서의 움직임은 좌표 변환에 의해서 대응된다. 본 수법의 경우 광류는 선형모멘트방정식의 함수에 관한 도함수를 이용하는 투영법에 의해서 반복계산으로 구하여 진다. 본 논문에서는 심장의 영상계열을 이용하여 기존의 Horn and Schunck기법, Standard multigrid기법과 본 수법의 알고리즘을 비교 평가하여 유효성을 나타낸다.

In order to identify novel proapoptotic genes, we screened approximately 1,000 hypothetical genes whose functions are completely unknown. After these genes were transiently expressed in HeLa cells, their nuclei images were captured using automated high-speed fluorescence microscope, through which the ratio of apoptotic nuclei was estimated. We selected genes that induce greater than 3-fold increase in apoptotic nuclei compared to that of the vector control. The candidate proapoptotic genes were sequenced and their effects on cell death were further confirmed by the additional assay, DNA fragmentation ELISA. Finally, we were able to identify 4 full-length hypo-thetical genes with proapoptotic activity.

The functionalized dendrimer containing 48 azobenzene was synthesized. Many isolated featureless domains were explicitly observed even at the air/water interface. Also, these monolayers were representatively observed, showing the change of surface pressure with irradiation time and wavelength. In AFM images, larger domains irregularly shaped structures on the top, while smaller ones were free from such defects. In the optical absorption spectra of the monolayer films by UV irradiation and heat treatment, only the photoiosmerization of the G4-48 Azo monolayers was observed, revealing a decrease of absorbance peaks without any change of the spectral shape. This suggests that the functional group and the symmetric chain affect optical behavior and morphological change.

External beam radiotherapy can be used to treat cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). Acute skin toxicity is the most common adverse event. In this case study we report on an elderly patient with nasal root cutaneous SCC treated with stereotactic technique using a dedicated linear accelerator (CyberKnife system). Grade 3 skin toxicity was observed but it was resolved after 6 weeks. The use of stereotactic radiotherapy permitted a clinical remission of SCC with good cosmetic results.

A platform is developed for fast and effective functional mapping of human brain, which can allow semi-automatically the whole processes of an image segmentation, a fusion of MR and PET images, and 3-D rendering of volumetric data, including DICOM-based image transfers from PACS archiver within a short period of time.

The aim of this study is to develop a 3D registration algorithm for positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) images acquired from independent PET/CT and MR imaging systems. Combined PET/CT images provide anatomic and functional information, and MR images have high resolution for soft tissue. With the registration technique, the strengths of each modality image can be combined to achieve higher performance in diagnosis and radiotherapy planning. The proposed method consists of two stages: normalized mutual information (NMI)-based global matching and independent component analysis (ICA)-based refinement. In global matching, the field of view of the CT and MR images are adjusted to the same size in the preprocessing step. Then, the target image is geometrically transformed, and the similarities between the two images are measured with NMI. The optimization step updates the transformation parameters to efficiently find the best matched parameter set. In the refinement stage, ICA planes from the windowed image slices are extracted and the similarity between the images is measured to determine the transformation parameters of the control points. B-spline. based freeform deformation is performed for the geometric transformation. The results show good agreement between PET/CT and MR images.

High-throughput subcellular imaging is a powerful tool for investigating the function of genes. In order to identify novel regulators of apoptosis we transiently transfected HeLa cells with 938 hypothetical genes of unknown function, and captured their nuclear images with an automated fluorescence microscope. We selected genes that induced greater than 3-fold increase in the percentage of apoptotic nuclei compared with vector-transfected cells. The full-length genes C10orf61, MGC 26717, and FLJ13855 were identified as candidate proapoptotic genes, and their apoptotic effects were confirmed by DNA fragmentation ELISAs and Western blotting for caspase-7 and PARP. We conclude that a subcellular image-based apoptotic screen is useful for identifying genes with proapoptotic activity.

본 연구에서는 다중영상 획득용 두뇌팬텀을 사용하여 CT, MR, 그리고 PET영상을 획득하였으며, 이를 정합대상으로 하여 해부학적 영상과 핵의학 기능영상과의 정합을 실시하였다. 정합 알고리즘으로는 현재 널리 사용되고 있는 'Chamfer Matching' 알고리즘과 Mutual Information Maximization' 알고리즘을 이용하였고, 기존 연구에서 타당성이 검증된 정합 프로그램을 사용하였다. 정합 결과, CT-MR, CT-PET, MR-PET세 가지 정합경우에 대하여 두 알고리즘 모두 효과적인 방법임을 알 수 있었으나, 저해상도의 핵의학 영상인 PET과의 정합에선 Mutual Information Maximization'알고리즘이 더 효과적인 방법임을 확인하였다.

The objective of this study is to analyze the coordination images seen in comprehensive fashion items and their features. This will be done from the viewpoint of both the creativity as well as functional characteristics of items and images. For the method of study, I explored the idea of "snood" style, analyzing its features of 42 pictures appearing from the 2006 S/S to 2010 F/W collection. It is important to note that "snood" style has the characteristics of both a muffler and turtleneck. With looping design connected at both ends, it can be placed around the neck or head, creating the image of wearing a hood. After having examined the selected data and pictures, one can largely divide the exclusive high-fashion image categories into three types: feminine, avant-garde, and finally, active & functional sportive image. First, the orthodox image is widely accepted by most as it has forever evolved within the original tradition of the practically functional muffler(scarf). Second, since the metamorphic image tends to lend itself to free ideas, you can wear a snood around the shoulders like a collar. Worn together with the same type of clothing, the snood can be seen as an effective suit. Third, the aim of image emphasis is to highlight certain points, or make some features more noticeable, as a means of possibly attracting more interest and attention. The image of snood arises out of the use of shapes, colors, and other accessory parts. As mentioned earlier, snood stands out as an independent item instead of just being an accessory to clothing. Its primary function as a style coordinator is emphasized in order to create more distinctive fashion images. Through this study, I thereby intend to provide fashion style data on the latest trends, and high-fashion codes of snood coordination.

본 연구에서는 객관적인 아름다움에 대한 주관적인 미적 경험으로서의 인지적, 감정적 경험에 관여하는 뇌 활성화 과정을 기능적 자기공명영상을 이용하여 검토해 보았다. 우선, 프랙탈 이미지에 대한 미적평가 행동과 제로 보편적인 아름다움의 준거를 확인하였다. 평정 결과에 기초하여, 전체 270개 이미지 중 가장 점수가 높은 50개를 아름다운 이미지로, 점수가 낮은 50개를 아름답지 않은 이미지로 선정하였다. 두 가지 조건을 블록으로 제시한 신경영상 연구 결과, 아름답다고 평가한 이미지에 대해서는 미적 경험에 관여하는 인지적, 정서적 처리에 관여된 부위인 전두엽과 대상회와 뇌섬엽이 활성화되었으며, 아름답지 않다고 평가한 이미지에 대해서는 부정적인 정서와 관련된 중후두회와 전설소엽의 활성화가 관찰되었다. 아름다움 평가에 대한 조건별 접속분석의 결과, 미적평가가 긍정적인 이미지에 대해서는 측두엽의 활성화가, 부정적인 이미지에 대해서는 두정엽의 활성화가 특징적으로 나타났다. 이에 대해 의미론적 해석과 추상화 과정과 연결하여 논의하였다.
