Reserved forces of ROKA are in charge of replacement of TOE in the wartime and mission of rear area operation. But there is institutional inertia in the law and organization oriented to fill human resources rather than take mission. We need to prepare for the investment and arrangement of reserved forces as military power that would be replaced standing forces. In this portion, to reinforce reserve forces elite, First, efficient mobilization regulations and systems are suggested. I covered a maintenance of relevant mobilization ordinances which need to legislated and approved by national assembly for wartime and development of mobilization system which might lose the appropriate time for mobilization due to complicated declaration procedures and measures to overcome the panic at the initial stage of the war and organization and employment of nationwide transportation system and mobilization center. To ensure efficient resource management and mobilization of reserve forces with a number of approximately 3 million, there's a necessity of organization for integration and conciliation. To make it real, I suggested establishing and employing the mobilization center, on first phase, employ the mobilization center focusing on homeland divisions, on second phase, it is advisable to convert to national level mobilization system and develop to central mobilization center focusing on national emergency planning committee. During peacetime, in conjunction with Mobilization Cell, mobilization center can conduct resource survey and integrate and manage mobilization resources and take charge of mobilization training of subordinate units, and during wartime, in conjunction with mobilization coordination team and Cell, can ensure the execution of mobilization. Second, Future oriented reserve forces management system such as service system of reserve forces and support system of homeland defense operations. Current service and trainings of reserve forces by the year have very low connection, as it is very complex to manage the resources and trainings, and service and training lack the equity, re-establishment of service system is required. Also in an aspect of CSS and cultivation support for reserve forces, as the scope and limitation of responsibility between the armed forces and autonomous organization is obscure, conditions to conduct actual-fighting exercises are limited. Concentrated budgetting is extremely difficult because reserve forces training fields are scattered nationwide, and facilities and equipments are rapidly getting older. To improve all these, I suggest the organization of homeland defense battalion with a unit of "City-Gun-District" and supporting the local reserve forces. Conduct unit replacement or personal replacement for those who have finished their 1 or 2 years and homeland defense operation duty for those with 3-5 years for consistency and simplification. Third, I suggest Future oriented Reserved Training(FRT) and Training Center oriented training management to establish a reliable reserve training. Reserves carry out expansion of unit, conventional combat mission, homeland defense and logistics support during wartime, and actual-fighting exercise, and disaster relief, peace keeping activities. Despite diverse activities and roles, their training condition still stays definitely poor. For these reasons, Modernization of weapons and facilities through gradual replacement and procurement is essential to enhance mobilization support system.

본 연구는 RAPD마커를 이용, 멧누에와 집누에의 분자적 유연관계를 분석하였다. 공시한 35개의 primer에서 166개의 RAPD마커를 얻었으며, 이들 마커를 UPGMA에 의해 분석한 결과, 멧누에와 분자적 유사계수가 가장 낮은 품종은 잠305였고, 가장 높은 품종은 Bibaekjam이었다. 또한, 분자적 유사계수 0.55에서 멧누에와 집누에 계통군으로 분류되고, 0.60에서 3개의 아군 그룹과 2개의 독립개체로 분류되었다. 제1아군에는 J111(일본종계),$pnd^{ps}$(일본종계), Bibaekjam(일본종계)이, 제2아군에는 Galwon(중국종계), C18(중국종계), od yujam JAM306(중국종계), C108(중국종계)이, 제3아군에는 R-hwang(중국종계)이 포함되어 있었고, zebra(유럽종계)와 JAM305(일본종게)는 독립개체로 분류되었다. The molecular relationships have analyzed between the Bombyx mandarina(wild silkworm) and Bombyx mori strains (domesticated silkworm, geographical silkworms). A total of 166 polymorphic RAPD markers amplified from 35 different primers were used to analyze the molecular relationships among thirteen silkworm strains. The genetic similarity coefficient between Bombyx mandarina and Jam305 showed the lowest genetic similarity value with 0.451, Bombyx mandarina and Bibaekjam showed the highest genetic similarity value with 0.958. These strains were classified into Bombyx mandarina(a wild silkworm) and Bombyx mori(twelve domesticated silkworm) groups upon the genetic similary coefficient of 0.55. Further classificient of 0.60; the 1st sub-group (J111, Bibaekjam, $pnd^{ps}$), the 2nd sub-group (Galwon, C18, od yujam, JAM306, C108), the 3rd sub-group(R-hwang, p50), the 4th sub-group(zebra) and the 5th sub-group(JAM305). According to this study, RAPD markers seems to be a valuable tool for molecular relationships and classification among the silkworms.

최근 PET/CT 장비의 성능의 발전과 다양한 기법의 개발로 민감도와 해상도등 영상 품질을 개선할 수 있게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 GE사의 Discovery IQ 장비의 Q.Clear (a fully convergent iterative reconstruction) 기법을 이용하여 영상의 질 향상에 유용성이 있는지 알아보고자 한다. 장비는 Discovery IQ (GE Healthcare, MI, USA)를 사용하였다. NEMA IEC Body Phantom의 배후방사능과 열소 체적(10 mm, 13 mm, 17 mm, 22 mm)의 비를 1:4로 하고 3분간 촬영하여 VPHDs (VUE Point High-Definition SharpIR)와 Q.Clear의 대조도를 비교 분석하였다. PET/SPECT Performance Phantom에 $^{18}F-FDG$를 187 MBq을 주입 후 4분간 촬영하여 해상도와 균일도를 비교 분석하였다. 그리고 100명의 임상 환자에서 질환의 종류와 상관없이 2 cm 미만의 작은 병소의 SUVmax를 측정하여 t-test 통계분석하였다. NEMA IEC Body Phantom에서 VPHDs와 Q.Clear의 대조도가 $63.6{\pm}5.7%$, $75{\pm}4.8%$로 나왔고 PET/SPECT Performance Phantom에서 해상도는 VPHDs가 9.2 mm, Q.Clear가 7.3 mm로 나왔다. 균일도는 Q.Clear가 10.8% 더 우수하였다. 임상 환자의 t-test 통계 결과 p-value가 0.021로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 임상환자에서 SUVmax는 Q.Clear에서 높게 측정 되었으며, 신호대 잡음 비도 우수하였다. 이는 부분체적효과의 영향을 줄였기 때문으로 볼 수 있다. Phantom test와 임상 환자의 결과 모두 Q.Clear를 적용 하였을 때 영상품질이 향상된 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 영상 품질 향상은 병소를 더욱 정확하게 발견할 수 있고 나아가 선량저감과 환자평가 그리고 영상 분석 등 다양한 방면에서 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. Purpose Recently, the performance of PET/CT scanner has been improved and various techniques have been developed to increase the image quality such as Sensitivity and Resolution. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of Q.Clear (a fully convergent iterative reconstruction) technique of GE Discovery IQ equipment to enhance the image quality. Materials and Methods All scans were acquired by Discovery IQ (GE Healthcare, MI, USA). In NEMA IEC Body Phantom test, Background to Hot-sphere (10 mm, 13 mm, 17 mm, 22 mm) ratio was 1:4 and scan time was 3 minutes. The images were reconstructed by VPHDs (VUE Point High-Definition + SharpIR) and Q.Clear to evaluate each Contrast. We injected 18F-FDG 187 M㏃ to PET/SPECT Performance Phantom. And then it was scanned for 4 minutes to evaluate Resolution and Uniformity. T-test statistical analysis was performed on SUVmax of small lesions less than 2 cm in 100 clinical patients regardless of disease type. Results In the NEMA IEC Body Phantom, the Contrast was $63.6{\pm}5.7%$ (VPHDs) and $75{\pm}4.8%$ (Q.Clear). In the PET/SPECT Performance Phantom, the Resolution was 9.2 mm (VPHDs) and 7.3 mm (Q.Clear). Uniformity of Q.Clear was 10.8% better than VPHDs. T-test statistic of the clinical patients showed a significant difference of p value of 0.021. Conclusion Both the phantom test and the clinical results showed that the quality of the image was improved in Q.Clear was applied. The SUVmax was highly measured in Q.Clear and the lesions were clearly distinguished visually. Therefore Q.Clear can be useful in various aspects such as dose-reduction, patients evaluation and image analysis.

간암환자에 있어서 $^{11}C$-Acetate와 $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT 검사의 당일 검사법과 양일 검사법의 비교

강신창,박훈희,김정열,임한상,김재삼,이창호,Kang, Sin-Chang,Park, Hoon-Hee,Kim, Jung-Yul,Lim, Han-Sang,Kim, Jae-Sam,Lee, Chang-Ho 대한핵의학기술학회 2010 핵의학 기술 Vol.14 No.2

$^{11}C$-Acetate PET/CT는 간에 관련된 병변을 찾아내는데 있어 유용성이 있으며, 이에 대한 예민도는 87.3%에 이른다. 이에 반해 $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT의 예민도는 47.3%이며, $^{18}F$-FDG와 $^{11}C$-Acetate PET/CT 검사를 동시에 사용하는 경우 예민도는 100%로 보고된바 있다. 하지만 $^{11}C$-Acetate PET/CT검사에서 췌장, 비장의 정상섭취로 인해 $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT검사에 영향을 줄 수 있어 정확한 진단에 혼란을 야기시킬 수 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 두 방사성의약품의 사용으로 인하여 영상에 얼마나 영향을 주는지에 대해 당일 검사법과 양일 검사법 간의 비교 분석을 통해 유용성을 확인하는데 목적이 있다. 본 연구는 2007년 12월부터 2009년 7월까지 본원에서 간암 진단을 받고 PET/CT 검사를 시행한 환자 46명을 대상으로 하였다(남자 35명, 여자 11명, 평균연령: $54{\pm}10.6$세, 연령 범위: 29~69세). 검사에 이용된 장비는 Biograph TruePoint 40 PET/CT이며, 당일 검사법으로 검사한 21명에게는 $^{11}C$-Acetate PET/CT 검사를 먼저 시행하고 약 1시간 후에 곧바로 $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT 검사를 시행하였다. 양일 검사법으로 검사를 시행한 25명에게는 1일째 $^{11}C$-Acetate PET/CT검사를 시행하고, 2일째 $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT 검사를 시행하였다. 두 검사법 간의 $^{18}F$-FDG 영상에서 췌장과 비장에 동일한 관심영역을 설정하고 표준섭취계수를 측정하여 비교 평가하였다. 통계 분석은 SPSS Ver. 17을 사용하였으며, unpaired t-test를 통하여 두 검사법 간의 통계적 유의성을 확인하였다. 각각의 검사법으로 시행한 환자의 영상을 분석한 결과, 양일 검사법으로 검사를 시행한 환자의 췌장 부분의 표준섭취계수 평균${\pm}$표준편차는 두부 $1.62{\pm}0.32$ g/mL, 체부 $1.57{\pm}0.37$ g/mL, 미부 $1.49{\pm}0.33$ g/mL, 비장은 $1.53{\pm}0.28$ g/mL였다. 당일 검사법으로 검사를 시행한 환자의 췌장은 두부 $1.65{\pm}0.35$ g/mL, 체부 $1.58{\pm}0.27$ g/mL, 미부 $1.49{\pm}0.28$ g/mL, 비장은 $1.66{\pm}0.29$ g/mL로 나타났다. 당일 검사법과 양일 검사법 간의 췌장과 비장에서의 표준섭취계수는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았으며 (p<0.05), PET/CT 영상분석에서도 위양성으로 오인할 수 있는 높은 섭취는 보이지 않았다. 본 연구를 통해서 하루 동안 $^{11}C$-Acetate와 $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT 검사를 시행하여도 $^{18}F$-FDG 영상에서 $^{11}C$-Acetate의 영향으로 인해 표준섭취계수의 과대평가가 일어나지 않는다는 것을 알 수 있었고 이는 표준섭취계수의 측정값을 통해 통계적으로 유의성을 확인할 수 있었다. 앞으로 $^{11}C$-Acetate가 상용화될 경우 $^{18}F$-FDG와 당일 검사법을 이용하여 간질환의 진단에 있어 PET/CT 검사의 진단능을 향상시킬 수 있고 위 결과를 토대로 두 방사성의약품의 간섭영향 없이 하루에 검사를 완료할 수 있으며, 대기시간을 단축하여 환자의 만족도를 높일 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. Purpose: $^{11}C$-Acetate PET/CT is useful in detecting lesions that are related to livers in the human body and leads to a sensitivity of 87.3%. On the other hand, $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT has a sensitivity of 47.3% and it has been reported that if both $^{18}F$-FDG and $^{11}C$-Acetate PET/CT are carried out together, their cumulative sensitivity is around 100%. However, the normal intake of the pancreas and the spleen in $^{11}C$-Acetate PET/CT can influence the $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT leading to an inaccurate diagnosis. This research was aimed at the verification of the usefulness of how much influence these two radioactive medical supplies can cause on the medical images through comparative analysis between the one-day and two-day protocol. Materials and Methods: This research was carried out based on 46 patients who were diagnosed with liver cancer and have gone through the PET/CT (35 male, 11 female participants, average age: $54{\pm}10.6$ years, age range: 29-69 years). The equipment used for this test was the Biograph TruePoint40 PET/CT (Siemens Medical Systems, USA) and 21 participants who went through the one-day protocol test were first given the $^{11}C$-Acetate PET/CT and the $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT, the latter exactly after one hour. The other 25 participants who went through the two-day protocol test were given the $^{11}C$-Acetate PET/CT on the first day and the $^{18}F$-FDG PET/CT on the next day. These two groups were then graded comparatively by assigning identical areas of interest of the pancreas and the spleen in the $^{18}F$-FDG images and by measuring the Standard Uptake Value (SUV). SPSS Ver.17 (SPSS Inc., USA) was used for statistical analysis, where statistical significance was found through the unpaired t-test. Results: After analyzing the participants' medical images from each of the two different protocol types, the average${\pm}$standard deviation of the SUV of the pancreas carried out under the two-day protocol were as follows: head $1.62{\pm}0.32$ g/mL, body $1.57{\pm}0.37$ g/mL, tail $1.49{\pm}0.33$ g/mL and the spleen $1.53{\pm}0.28$ g/mL. Whereas, the results for participants carried out under the one-day protocol were as follows: head $1.65{\pm}0.35$ g/mL, body $1.58{\pm}0.27$ g/mL, tail $1.49{\pm}0.28$ g/mL and the spleen $1.66{\pm}0.29$ g/mL. Conclusion: It was found that no statistical significant difference existed between the one-day and two-day protocol SUV in the pancreas and the spleen (p<0.05), and nothing which could be misconceived as false positive were found from the PET/CT medical image analysis. From this research, it was also found that no overestimation of the SUV occurred from the influence of $^{11}C$-Acetate on the $^{18}F$-FDG medical images where those two tests were carried out for one day. This result was supported by the statistical significance of the SUV of measurement. If $^{11}C$-Acetate becomes commercialized in the future, the diagnostic ability of liver diseases can be improved by $^{18}F$-FDG and one-day protocol. It is from this result where tests can be accomplished in one day without the interference phenomenon of the two radioactive medical supplies and furthermore, could reduce the waiting time improving customer satisfaction.

함준철,오신현,최용훈,강천구,김재삼,Ham, Jun Cheol,Oh, Shin Hyun,Choi, Yong Hoon,Kang, Chun Koo,Kim, Jae Sam 대한핵의학기술학회 2018 핵의학 기술 Vol.22 No.1

소화기계 Leakage환자 검사 시 Planar 영상만으로 담즙누출 및 출혈여부와 위치감별이 쉽지 않다. SPECT-CT를 이용하여 담즙누출 및 위장관출혈 확인과 위치 감별을 통한 유용성을 평가하고자 한다. 본원에 내원한 환자 중 담즙누출 의심 환자 8명 및 위장관출혈이 의심되는 환자 5명, 총 13명을 대상으로 Planar영상 획득 후 판독실요청에 따라 SPECT-CT를 진행했다. 장비는 SIEMENS사의 Symbia T16과 GE사의 Discovery 670을 사용했다. Planar 및 SPECT-CT 영상은 4명의 경험 있는 핵의학 의사에 의해 1~10점의 점수로 평가했다. 민감도 및 특이도를 이용하여 ROC 곡선에 의한 검사 평가를 시행했다. 최종 진단은 재수술 결과 및 추적 관찰을 통해 확인했다. SPECT-CT의 민감도, 특이도 및 정확도는 각각 91.7%, 100% 및 94.2%였다. Planar영상은 각 각 83.3%, 68.8% 및 78.8%였다. Planar영상은 SPECT-CT와 비교하여 낮은 진단 정확도를 보였다(78.8%, 94.2%, p<0.05). 또한 ROC곡선 분석에서 SPECT-CT의 진단 신뢰도는 Planar영상보다 유용한 결과를 나타냈다(p<0.05). SPECT-CT는 담즙누출 및 위장관출혈 진단과 위치 감별에 민감도와 특이도가 높게 나타났다. Planar영상과 함께 SPECT-CT를 추가로 시행한다면 담즙누출 및 위장관출혈 환자의 진단과 위치 감별평가를 향상 시킬 것으로 사료된다. SPECT-CT는 다른 장기와의 중첩으로 진단이 어려울 경우 유용성이 있지만 추가적인 CT피폭에 대한 고려는 충분히 이루어져야 할 것이다. Purpose When examining patients with digestive system Leakage, it is not easy to distinguish between bile leakage and bleeding only with Planar images. I would like to evaluate the utility of leakage of bile, confirmation of gastrointestinal bleeding and location discrimination using SPECT-CT. Materials and Methods SPECT-CT was performed according to the request of the reading room after acquiring Planar image for a total of 13 patients, including 8 patients suspected of bile leakage and 5 patients suspected of gastrointestinal bleeding, among patients visiting this specification went. We used Symbia T16 from SIEMENS and Discovery 670 from GE. Planar and SPECT-CT images were evaluated with a score of 1 to 10 by 4 experienced nuclear medicine doctors. Using the sensitivity and the specificity, the evaluation of the inspection by the ROC curve was carried out. The final diagnosis was confirmed by follow-up observation as a result of reoperative surgery. Results The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of SPECT-CT were 91.7%, 100% and 94.2%, respectively. Planar images were 83.3%, 68.8% and 78.8%, respectively. Planar images showed lower diagnostic accuracy compared to SPECT-CT (78.8%, 94.2%, p<0.05). Moreover, the reliability of the diagnosis of SPECT-CT by ROC curve analysis showed a more useful result than the Planar image (p<0.05). Conclusion SPECT-CT had high sensitivity and specificity for diagnosis of biliary leakage and gastrointestinal bleeding and location discrimination. When SPECT-CT is additionally performed together with Planar images, it may be considered to improve bile leakage and diagnosis of gastrointestinal bleeding patients and position discrimination evaluation. There is usefulness depending on the patient's age and position, but consideration of additional CT exposure may be done sufficiently.

PET/CT 전신 영상에서 오렌지 주스(Orange Juice)를 이용한 위장 확장 영상의 유용성

조석원,정석,오신현,박훈희,김재삼,이창호,Cho, Seok-Won,Chung, Seok,Oh, Shin-Hyun,Park, Hoon-Hee,Kim, Jae-Sam,Lee, Chang-Ho 대한핵의학기술학회 2009 핵의학 기술 Vol.13 No.1

Purpose: The PET/CT has a clear distinction on the lesion of the functional image by adding anatomical information. It also could reduce the examination time using CT data as the attenuation-correction. When the stomach was contracted from a fast, it could bring a misinterpretation of the cancer of the lesion with a presence of physiological $^{18}F$-FDG uptake in stomach and it occasionally would bring an additional scan to confirm. To complement this shortcoming, the method that the patients had water before the examination to extend the stomach had been attempted. However, a short excretion time of the stomach did not give sufficiently extended image of the stomach. Then the patients had additional water and had the examination again. Therefore, the noticed fact is that the stomach excretion time depends on calories, protein content, and the level of carbohydrate. In this study, we use an orange juice to evaluate the extension of the stomach and usefulness of it. Materials and Methods: PET/CT scan were obtained on total 150 of patient from February 2008 to October2008, There were 3 groups in this study and each group had 50 patients. First group drank nothing, Second group drank water and third group drank orange juice. The patients (man 25, female 25) not drinking are the age of 30~71 years old (average: 54), the patients (man: 25, female: 25) drinking water (400 cc) are the age of 28~71 years old (average: 54) and the patients (man: 25, female: 25) drinking orange juice (400 cc) are the age of 32~74 years old (average: 56). The patients were fasted in 6-8 hours before the test, the patients were not diabetic. $^{18}F$-FDG 370~555 MBq were injected intravenously. The patients were in stable position for 1 hour, than the image was obtained. The patients drank water and other patients drank orange juice before Whole body scan. The image scan started from mid-femur to skull base. The emission scan acquired for three minutes per bed and the images were reconstructed. Stomach extension analysis is measured from vertical and horizontal length. Results: Stomach Extension was described as the vertical length of the Non Drink Group was $1.20{\pm}0.50\;cm$, horizontal length was $1.4{\pm}0.53\;cm$, the vertical length of the Water Drink Group was $1.67{\pm}0.63\;cm$, horizontal length was $1.65{\pm}0.77\;cm$, the vertical length of Orange juice Drink Group was $3.48{\pm}0.77\;cm$, horizontal length was $3.66{\pm}0.77\;cm$ in coronal image. Stomach Extension was described the vertical length of the Non Drink Group was $2.03{\pm}0.62\;cm$, horizontal length was $1.69{\pm}0.68\;cm$, the vertical length of Water Drink Group was $5.34{\pm}1.62\;cm$, horizontal length was $2.45{\pm}0.72\;cm$, the vertical length of Orange juice Drink Group was $7.74{\pm}1.62\;cm$, horizontal length was $3.57{\pm}0.77\;cm$ in transverse image. The Stomach Extension has specific differences (p<0.001). The SUVs shows the Non Drink Group were measured as Liver $2.52{\pm}0.42$, Lung $0.51{\pm}0.14$, the Water Drink Group were measured as Liver $2.47{\pm}0.38$, Lung $0.50{\pm}0.14$, Orange juice Drink Group were measured as Liver $2.47{\pm}0.38$, Lung $0.50{\pm}0.14$. The SUVs did not have specific differences (p>0.759). Conclusions: There was not a large difference of SUV in three groups. When the patients drank Orange juice and water, the range extension of stomach was higher than without drinking nothing and it was possible to acquire fully extended images. Therefore, it will be possible that unnecessary additional stomach scans will be reduced by drinking orange juice before the examination so that the patients' claim from uncomfortable and long period of fast will be minimized. 현재는 PET/CT의 개발로 기능적인 영상에 해부학적인 정보를 추가함으로써 좀더 병변의 명확한 구별이 가능하게 되었으며, CT영상으로 감쇠보정하여 환자 검사시간을 단축시킬 수 있는 이점이 있다. 하지만 오랜 금식으로 위장이 수축되어 있고, 병변이 없는 경우에도 높은 생리적 섭취에 의해 종양으로 오인되는 경우가 있어 종종 추가 검사를 시행하고 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위하여 검사 직전에 물을 섭취하여 위장을 확장시켜 영상을 얻는 방법이 시도되었지만, 위장에서 짧은 시간에 배출되기 때문에 충분히 확장된 위장 영상을 획득하지 못하여 경우에 따라, 다시 물을 먹고 추가 검사를 하는 경우가 발생되었다. 그러므로, 본 연구에서는 칼로리, 단백질 함유, 탄수화물 정도에 따라 위장의 배출시간이 다르다는 생리적 특성에 착안하여 시중에서 비교적 구하기 쉬운 오렌지 주스를 이용하여 검사 중 위장 확장 정도와 영상의 유용성을 비교.평가하였다. 2008년 2월부터 10월까지 PET/CT를 시행한 150명의 환자로 섭취를 하지 않았을 때와 물과 오렌지 주스를 먹은 환자 각각 50명을 대상으로 하였다. 섭취를 하지 않고 검사를 시행한 환자는 남자 25명, 여자 25명으로 연령은 30~71세(평균 연령: 54세)이며, 물(400 cc)을 먹고 검사를 시행한 환자는 남자 25명, 여자 25명으로 연령은 28~71세(평균 연령: 54세)이고, 오렌지 주스(400 cc)를 먹고 검사를 시행한 환자는 남자 25명, 여자 25명으로 연령은 32~74세(평균 연령: 56세)이었다. 환자는 검사 전 6~8시간 금식을 하였고, 당뇨병이 없는 환자를 대상으로 하였다. $^{18}F$-FDG 370~555MBq를 정맥 주사 후 환자를 1시간 동안 안정된 자세로 유지하였으며, 그 후 영상을 획득하였다. 전신 검사 시작 전 각각 물, 오렌지주스를 섭취하고, 두개골 기저에서 대퇴부 중반까지 영상을 얻었으며, bed당 3분으로 방출영상을 획득하여, 영상을 재구성 하였다. 획득된 영상의 종축, 횡축의 길이를 측정하여 확장 정도를 확인 분석하였다. 위장의 확장된 정도는 관상면(Coronal)에서 섭취를 하지 않았을 때 종축이 $1.20{\pm}0.50\;cm$, 횡축이 $1.4{\pm}0.53\;cm$이고 물을 섭취하였을 때 종축이 $1.67{\pm}0.63\;cm$, 횡축이 $1.65{\pm}0.77\;cm$이었으며 오렌지 주스를 섭취하였을 때 종축이 $3.48{\pm}0.77\;cm$, 횡축이 $3.66{\pm}0.77\;cm$로 나타났다. 횡단면 (Transverse)에서 섭취를 하지 않았을 때 종축이 $2.03{\pm}0.62\;cm$, 횡축이 $1.69{\pm}0.68\;cm$이고 물을 섭취하였을 때 종축이 $5.34{\pm}1.62\;cm$, 횡축이 $2.45{\pm}0.72\;cm$이었으며, 오렌지 주스를 섭취 하였을 때 종축이 $7.74{\pm}1.62\;cm$, 횡축이 $3.57{\pm}0.77\;cm$로 나타났다. 물과 오렌지 주스의 관상면과 횡단면에서 종축과 횡축의 거리는 유의한 차이가 나타났다(p<0.001). 또한 SUV에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위하여 측정값은 섭취를 하지 않았을 때 Liver는 $2.52{\pm}0.42$, Lung $0.51{\pm}0.14$, 물을 섭취하였을 때 Liver에서 $2.47{\pm}0.38$, Lung은 $0.50{\pm}0.14$, 오렌지 주스를 섭취 하였을 때 Liver에서 $2.50{\pm}0.45$, Lung은 $0.51{\pm}0.13$으로 유의한 차이가 없었다(p=0.759). 오렌지 주스를 섭취했을 때와 물을 섭취했을 때의 SUV의 차이가 크게 없었으며, 검사 중 위장의 확장 정도는 섭취를 하지 않았을 때와 물보다 오렌지 주스에서 충분히 확장된 영상을 획득하였

관상동맥 석회화 검사에 컴퓨터단층촬영(Comtuted tomography, CT)을 사용하지만 고위험군인 미세석회화 감별에는 어려움이 있다. $^{18}F$-sodium fluoride ($^{18}F-NaF$)가 미세석회화를 진단하는데 매우 유용하다는 연구가 해외에서 보고되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 $^{18}F-NaF$ PET 영상으로 석회화를 정량평가 하고 그 유용성을 알아보고자 한다. 환자는 총 45명($67.1{\pm}6.9$세)으로 $^{18}F-NaF$을 250 MBq 주입하고 1시간 뒤 30분간 영상을 획득하였다. 장비는 Discovery 710 (GE Healthcare, MI, USA)을 사용하였으며 모든 환자는 PET 검사 전 혈관조영CT (CTAngiography, CTA)를 촬영 하였다. 석회화의 SUVmax를 측정하고 좌심방의 배후방사능을 측정하여 Target to Background (TBR) 구한 뒤 정량 분석하였다. ROC 곡선(Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve)을 통하여 고위험군을 분류하였다. 융합영상에서 관상동맥 석회화는 226개로 나왔으며 SUVmax는 $1.15{\pm}0.39$으로 나왔다. 28명(62%)에서 58개가 고위험군으로(TBR>1.25)분류 되었다. 나머지 168개는 $TBR{\leq}1.25$로 나왔다. $^{18}F-NaF$ PET 영상으로 미세석회화의 정량평가가 가능하였고 고위험군을 분류할 수 있었다. 혈관조영CT와 $^{18}F-NaF$ PET을 병행한다면 위험도가 높은 미세석회화를 조기 진단하는 새로운 영상 진단법이 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. Purpose Although computed tomography (CT) is used for coronary artery calcification, it is difficult to differentiate between high risk microcalcifications. Studies have shown that $^{18}F$-sodium fluoride ($^{18}F-NaF$) is very useful for the diagnosis of microcalcifications. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the usefulness of $^{18}F-NaF$ PET imaging in quantitative evaluation of calcification. Materials and Methods A total of 45 patients ($67.1{\pm}6.9years\;old$) were injected with 250 MBq of $^{18}F-NaF$ for 1 hour and images were acquired for 30 minutes. All patients underwent CT angiography (CTAngiography, CTA) before the PET scan. The SUVmax of calcification was measured and the background radioactivity of the left atrium was measured to determine Target to Background (TBR) and quantitatively analyzed. High risk group was classified through ROC curve (Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve). Results There were 226 coronary artery calcifications in the cohort and SUVmax was $1.15{\pm}0.39$. Of the 28 patients (62%), 58 were classified as high risk (TBR > 1.25). The remaining 168 were $TBR{\leq}1.25$. Conclusion $^{18}F-NaF$ PET images were available for quantitative assessment of microcalcifications and could be classified into high-risk groups. The combination of angiographic CT and $^{18}F-NaF$ PET may be a new method for early diagnosis of high-risk microcalcifications.

방사성 요오드 갑상선 섭취율 검사는 방사성 요오드를 투여하고 일정 시간 후 갑상선의 요오드 방사능치를 측정하여 전반적인 기능 상태를 알아보는 검사법이다. 검사에 영향을 미치는 인자는 매우 다양하다. 본 연구에서는 갑상선의 길이나 두께, 부피에 따른 기하학적 요인이 계수율에 주는 영향을 관찰하고자 한다. 액체상태의 $^{131}I\;185kBq$ ($5{\mu}Ci$)을 지름이 0.5, 1, 1.5, 3 cm 인 주사기에 넣고 길이를 1 cm 간격으로 생리식염수를 추가하여 증가시켰다. 선원을 장비로부터 25 cm 거리에서 횡축방향과 종축방향으로 위치하였을 때 각각의 계수율을 측정하였다. 횡축 방향으로 위치하였을 때, 선원의 길이가 변화하여도 대부분 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 종축 방향으로 위치하였을 때, 곡선추정 회귀분석 결과 복합모형곡선과 높은 상관관계를 보였고($$R^2{\geq_-}0.941$$), 선원의 길이가 증가할수록 계수율은 감소하였다. 따라서 갑상선 섭취율 검사 시, 갑상선의 가로나 세로 방향의 차이에 따른 섭취율의 오차는 적을 것으로 예상되어 지며, 단순한 부피의 차이보다 갑상선의 두께 및 투여 전 선량측정 시의 비커에 따라서 오차가 생길 수 있다고 예상된다. 따라서 오차를 줄이기 위해서는 초음파 등의 영상을 참고하여 두께를 구해 섭취율 수치에 적용하거나, 결과에서 구한 복합방정식을 통해 오차를 예측, 갑상선과 섭취율 장비의 거리를 변화시킨다면 비교적 정확한 계수율을 구할 수 있을 거라 사료 된다. Purpose Radioactive iodine thyroid uptake (RAIU) rate is an examination which determines and seeks about general functions of thyroid gland. The size of thyroid gland is normally different between each person, also patients having thyroid diseases have had a variety of size of thyroid gland compared with others. The purpose of this study will investigate about the counting rate which is effected by the geometric factors through the length and volume changes of the source in RAIU rate. Materials and Methods I-131 185 kBq ($5{\mu}Ci$) were placed in a cylindrical phantom of 0.5 cm, 1 cm, 1.5 cm, and 3 cm in diameter, respectively, and saline was added to gradually increase the length by 1 cm in the horizontal and vertical directions to give a change in volume. The source was measured 20 times for 20 seconds from a distance of 25 cm to $364.4keV{\pm}20%$ energy ROI with Captus 3000 thyroid uptake system (Capintec, NJ, USA). Results When the source was located in the transverse direction of the detector, the consequence of one-way ANOVA is that even though the length of source is increased each diameter, there is mostly no significant difference. When the source was located in the longitudinal direction and the counting rate of length 1 cm at all diameter is set to 100%, the average is 92.57% for length 2 cm, 86.1% for 3 cm, 80.69% for 4 cm, 74.82% for 5 cm, and 69.68% at 6 cm. Conclusion According to this study, it is expected that the gap of RAIU rate has been depended on the thickness of thyroid gland as well as the diameter of the beaker. We know that the change of the volume with the increase of the length of the source had less effect on the change of the counting rate. Thus, in order to reduce the error in the measurement of the counting rate with the thyroid uptake rate equipment, an accurate counting rate can be relatively measured if the counting rate which is measured is corrected by thickness or the distance between the thyroid and the thyroid uptake rate equipment is changed.
