In order to analyze the factors affecting incidence angle and incident point when conducting a general radiography using Sella Turcica, the length and width of the head bone according to age and gender, length and width of Sella Turcica, and the distance between the front and the top of EAM to Sella Turcica were measured. The subjects were 400 patients who underwent a Skull series. For statistical analysis, t-test and ANOVA analysis were conducted using SPSS Ver.22.0. For post-test, Duncan was conducted and if the results were 95% or more (p<.05), it was determined to be significant. As a result of this study, the average length of the head bone was 177.45 mm, where the males were 182.84 mm and the females were 172.05mm showing that males were measured longer (p<.001). The width of the head bone was 116.98mm on average, where the males were 119.18mm and the females were 114.77mm(p<.001) showing that males were measured longer. The average length of Sella Turcica was 4.59mm, where the males were 4.54mm(p<.001) and the females were 4.63mm(p<.001) showing that females were measured longer. The average length of Sella Turcica was 7.08mm, where the males were 7.01mm(p<.001) and the females were 7.16mm(p<.001) showing that females were measured longer. The general radiology examination of Sella Turcica at a medical facility should be conducted in consideration of age and gender in accordance with the characteristics of Koreans.

Although digital mammography is a representative method for breast cancer detection. It has a limitation in detecting and classifying breast tumor due to superimposed structures. Machine learning, which is a part of artificial intelligence fields, is a method for analysing a large amount of data using complex algorithms, recognizing patterns and making prediction. In this study, we proposed a technique to improve the diagnostic accuracy of energy-selective mammography by training data using the machine learning algorithm and using dual-energy measurements. A dual-energy images obtained from a photon-counting detector were used for the input data of machine learning algorithms, and we analyzed the accuracy of predicted tumor thickness for verifying the machine learning algorithms. The results showed that the classification accuracy of tumor thickness was above 95% and was improved with an increase of imput data. Therefore, we expect that the diagnostic accuracy of energy-selective mammography can be improved by using machine learning.

For general radiological examinations, even in the same area and the same test, the test conditions must be set differently according to the patient. However, since it is impossible to consider the body shape and conditions of patients every time in medical institutions where various patients visit, the tests are conducted by setting the AEC which automatically sets the test conditions. AEC is most commonly used in chest radiography. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to propose the improvement plans for using AEC by measuring the exposure dose and evaluating the image quality according to whether the AEC is used or not, and to provide basic data for AEC research. In the present study, images were acquired while varying tube voltage and test distance according to the use of AEC in chest radiography. The radiation dose was measured by placing the dosimeter in front of the chest phantom, and the CNR and SNR of acquired images were analyzed using Image J. The t-test was conducted for the statistical analysis and the significance was determined at the level of 95%(p<.05). As a result of this study, in the inspection distance (100cm, 140cm, 180cm) according to the use of AEC, high doses were observed when the AEC was used and there was statistically significant difference(p<.05). In the t-test to determine the difference between CNR and SNR depending on whether AEC was used or not, there was no significant difference according to the use of AEC(p>.05). Therefore, when performing chest radiography, if the radiologist establishes the appropriate examination conditions and conducts the examination by not just relying solely on AEC, it may be possible to reduce unnecessary radiation exposure to the patient.

Whole Spine Scanography (WSS) using the Digital Radiography (DR) system is an examination that requires whole body X-ray exposure, which involves more exposure to radiation for patients than other general radiographies. This can affect the occurrence of breast cancer. This research measured radiation dose when breasts were shield and not shield using the Auto Exposure Control (AEC) mode. The radiation dose without a shield was 1.540 mGy, and that using a collimator was measured 0.506 mGy. Moreover, 0.733 mGy was measured when 1 shield (0.3 mm) was used, and $0.523{\mu}Gy$ when 5 of them (1.5 mm) were used. The results showed that the radiation dose with 5 shields and the radiation dose with a collimator were similar. Moreover, 0.233 mGy was measured when 8 shields (2.4 mm) were used. The standard deviation were 0.081 when using collimator and 0.014 when 5 shields were used. Also, when 8 shields were used, it was found to be 0.002. Most patients who go under a scoliosis test are children or young people who are highly sensitive to radiation. In the research results, the case where the organs sensitive to radiation, women's breasts, were shielded showed more distinct differences compared to without shields. It is considered that using shields can provide more constant shield than using a collimator and lower the risk of breast cancer caused by exposure to radiation.

This study conducted a comparative analysis of differences between cartesian trajectory in a linear rectangular coordinate system and MultiVane trajectory in a nonlinear rectangular coordinate system axial T1 and axial T2 images using an American College of Radiology(ACR) phantom. The phantom was placed at the center of the head coil and the top-to-bottom and left-to-right levels were adjusted by using a level. The experiment was performed according to the Phantom Test Guidance provided by the ACR, and sagittal localizer images were obtained. As shown in Figure 2, slices # 1 and # 11 were scanned after placing them at the center of a $45^{\circ}$ wedge shape, and a total of 11 slices were obtained. According to the evaluation results, the image intensity uniformity(IIU) was 93.34% for the cartesian trajectory, and 93.19% for the MultiVane trajectory, both of which fall under the normal range in the axial T1 image. The IIU for the cartesian trajectory was 0.15% higher than that for the MultiVane trajectory. In axial T2, the IIU was 96.44% for the cartesian trajectory, and 95.97% for the MultiVane trajectory, which fall under the normal range. The IIU for the cartesian trajectory was by 0.47% higher than that for the MultiVane trajectory. As a result, the cartesian technique was superior to the MultiVane technique in terms of the high-contrast spatial resolution, image intensity uniformity, and low-contrast object detectability.

This study was conducted from July 1 to September 30, 2018 using Optically Stimulated Luminescence Dosimeter(OSLD) and photoluminescent glass dosimeter(PLD) to measure the 3-month exposure dose and the cumulative dose in the active working area of the nuclear medicine worker Respectively. As a result, the cumulative dose for three months in the worker and work area was measured as 1.97 mSv and 2.02 mSv in the PLD. The mean surface dose and the mean depth dose of the OSLD were measured to be 2.04 mSv. The difference in the total surface dose measured by the PLD and the OSLD was 0.66mSv and the total mean surface dose was 0.07mSv. The difference between the total depth dose and the total depth dose was 0.1mSv and 0.02mSv, respectively. It was found that the dose value of the OSLD was higher than that of the PLD. In addition, it was found that the maximum difference of 0.01mSv was observed between the PLD and the OSLD of the worker. For the dose measurement of the two dosimetry systems, there was no significant difference between the PLD and the OSLD in the surface dose of 0.239 (p>0.05). Also, the significance of PLD and OSLD in the deep dose was 0.109, which was not statistically significant (p>0.05).

In the field of nuclear medicine, the various static phantoms of international standards are used to assess the performance of the nuclear medicine equipment. However, we only reproduced a fixed situation in spite of the movement of the cardiac, and the demands for dynamic situations have been continuously raised. More research is necessary to address these challenges. This study used flexible materials to design the dynamic cardiac phantom, taking into account the various clinical situations. It also intended to reproduce the images through dynamic cardiac flow to confirm the usefulness of the proposed technique. The frame of dynamic cardiac phantom was produced based on the international standard phantom. A nuclear medicine dynamic cardiac phantom was produced rubber material and silicone implemented by 3D printing technique to reproduce endocardium and epicardium movement. Therefore we compared and evaluated the image of a cardiac phantom made of rubber material and a cardiac phantom made of silicone material by 3D printing technique. According to the results of this study, the analysis of the Summed Rest Score(SRS) showed abnormalities in the image of a cardiac phantom made of rubber material at 10, 20, and 30 stroke rates, but the image of a cardiac phantom made of silicone material by 3D printing technique showed normal levels. And the analysis of the Total Perfusion Deficit(TPD) showed that TPD in the image of a cardiac phantom made of rubber material was higher than that of the image of a cardiac phantom made of silicone material by 3D printing technique at 10, 20, and 30 stroke rates. The potential for clinical application of the proposed method was confirmed in the dynamic cardiac phantom implemented with 3D printing technique. It is believed that the objective information secures the reliability of inspection equipment and it contributes to improve the diagnostic value of nuclear medicine.

The purpose of this study was to improve the unstable treatment posture by placing the Carbon fabric blanket on the couch which was used for the patient fixation for the unstable posture from the severe pain caused by the neuromuscular pressure of the spinal metastatic cancer patient and to analyze the dose difference caused by the energy loss of high energy radiation. Using a linear accelerator, a FC-65G was installed at a depth of 5 cm at a solid phantom at 6 MV and 10 MV energies. The SAD was 100 cm, Gantry angle was $0^{\circ}$, a Cotton and Carbon blanket with a thickness of 1 cm on the couch, The blankets were placed on the couch and the dose was measured according to field size. For the dose measurement, and the dose was measured at 100 MU each time, and the mean value was calculated by repeating the measurement three times in order to reduce the error. The results showed that the difference rate in dose between Carbon blanket and Cotton blanket was respectively -0.54% and -0.75% based on the absence of the blanket(Non). Therefore, it is considered that the use of Carbon fabric blanket, which reduces the patient's pain and does not affect the depth dose, may be useful during radiation therapy of the spine metastasis cancer.

Grating interferometry based imaging technology is a kind of radiation imaging system, which can acquire not only absorption image but also phase difference and dark field image using the Talbot pattern. However, because of the technological difficulties and high cost of fabricating the gratings that make up the system, much efforts are being made to look for ways to replace them. The is a preliminary study to see how the Talbot pattern transfer through various kinds of scintillators and if the optical grating can be a way to replace the conventional absorption gratings. The geometry of the interferometer, the scintillator model, and the scintillator thickness are the main inputs for our simulation. We have used the concept of modulation for quantitative analysis of the contrast ratio of the Talbot pattern. This research is expected to provide very useful information on the design of optical gratings, which is an alternative way to analyze the Talbot pattern, which we have filed a patent on.
