Liver stiffness measurement for the diagnosis of hepatic fibrosis in patients with chronic viral hepatitis
"목적: FibroScan？瑛？ 간의 경직성을 측정하여 비침습적으로 간의 섬유화 정도를 진단하는 검사로, 만성 바이러스성 간염 환자를 대상으로 검사의 유용성 여부 확인을 위해 연구를 시행하였다. 방법: 2005년 10월부터 2006년 8월까지 FibroScan？怜？ 간조직검사 를 시행한 만성 B형, C형 간염환자 103명을 분석하였으며, 간조직검사 결과는 대한병리학 회 기준에 따라 0 ~ 4단계로 분류하였다. 결과: 간의 탄력도는 3.5-57.1kPa (평균: 11.8, 표준편차: 8.9)이었고, 간섬유화 정도에 따른 간탄력도의 …

Measuring liver stiffness using transient elastography in the non-invasive assessment of chronic hepatitis B
Liver stiffness measurement using transient elastography has become recently available as a new non-invasive method to assess liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). The present thesis set out to determine the application of liver stiffness measurement in patients with CHB, …

Carbon nanotube based carbon dioxide gas sensors for respiratory monitoring.
… as the CO2 sensitive material. A conductivity measurement technique using surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors enables measurement of SWNT conductivity with very high resolution. While sensitive to CO2, this embodiment is several times more sensitive to humidity in the environment. Since …

Investigation of constraint effects on flaw growth in composite laminates
… emission, x-radiography, thermography and stiffness measurement. The effects of constraint on the response of composite materials can be classified in two categories: (a) in-plane effects and (b) through-the-thickness effects. In-plane constraint is the principal contributor to notched …

Development of a plasmon resonance enhanced optical trap for characterisation of single metal nanoparticle
The goal of this thesis is to develop an experimental method for constructing a plasmon resonance based gold nanorod trapping platform and suggest methods for characterizing a trapped single nanoparticle. While there are published methods that emphasize on building up an optical trapping setup or …

SARCOPENIA, LIVER AND CARDIOVASCULAR ALTERATIONS IN A MULTICENTRIC COHORT OF PATIENTS WITH MASLD: EVALUATION OF CLINICAL PRESENTATION AND GENETIC PREDISPOSITION
… (US) and controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) measurements via Fibroscan, while liver fibrosis was evaluated using liver stiffness measurement (LSM) at Fibroscan. Severe steatosis was defined as CAP > 280 dB/m, and advanced fibrosis was identified as LSM ≥ 8 kPa. Liver biopsies were performed …
