3.Current status and trend of the publication to the SCI and SCIE journals in the field of radiation oncology in Korea for 30 years.
Radiation Oncology Journal 2012;30(1):14-19
PURPOSE: We collected the data of Science Citation Index (SCI) and SCI Expended (SCIE) papers written by the members of the Korean Society of Radiation Oncology (KOSRO) to analyze the current status and the future trend. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We searched the database of SCIE for the period from 1981 to 2011 at the Web of Knowledge site. Articles, reviews or proceedings written by KOSRO members as the first or corresponding authors were included. Search terms were the following combination of subject headings: therapeut radiol, radiat oncol, Korea. For National Cancer Center, combined search terms such as natl canc ctr, Korea and the names of faculties were applied. RESULTS: The total number of SCIE papers was 547. Numbers of the published papers in 1995, 2000, 2005, and 2010, were increased continuously, which was 2, 14, 40, and 83, respectively. The average impact factor was 2.9. The papers were published at the 134 different journals. The proportion of "International Journal of Radiation Oncology Biology Physics" was 23.4% of all the papers. The number and proportions of papers by subject categories were 87 (15.9%) in biology, 73 (13.3%) in physics and 387 (70.6%) in clinics. The papers of the top five institutions, based on the number of published papers, occupied 66.3%. CONCLUSION: The number of SCIE papers is increasing rapidly in the field of radiation oncology in Korea. To improve the quality of papers, multi-institutional retrospective or prospective randomized studies should be done for the common cancers in Korea.

5.Insufficiency fracture after radiation therapy.
Radiation Oncology Journal 2014;32(4):213-220
Insufficiency fracture occurs when normal or physiological stress applied to weakened bone with demineralization and decreased elastic resistance. Recently, many studies reported the development of IF after radiation therapy (RT) in gynecological cancer, prostate cancer, anal cancer and rectal cancer. The RT-induced insufficiency fracture is a common complication during the follow-up using modern imaging studies. The clinical suspicion and knowledge the characteristic imaging patterns of insufficiency fracture is essential to differentiate it from metastatic bone lesions, because it sometimes cause severe pain, and it may be confused with bone metastasis.

We found that the packing of a rolled tensor fascia lata flap after the excision of avascular lunate was reasonably effective in relieving symptoms in 4 patients with advanced Kienbock's disease, even though there was still some residual postoperative loss of wrist motion and grip strength, and the slightly progressive tendencies of earpal collapse and translation as well as rotational deformities of scaphoid. Pre-operatively all patients had pain and limited motion of the wrist as well as weakness of grip. Roentgenographically all had sclerosis, fragmentation and collapse of the lunate. They were analysed each two cases in advanced stage II and III according to the classification by Lichtman. Most had symptoms for longer than two and half years. After removal of the avascular lunate through a dorsal incision, a rolled tensor fascia lata flap was packed to fit the defect. Patients were followed for an average of sixteen months. All were improved clinically but there were somewhat postoperative progress in carpal collapse, translation and rotational deformities of scaphoid roentgenographically.

9.Post traumatic reno-colic fistula and intrarenal aneurysm: case report
Journal of the Korean Radiological Society 1982;18(4):839-842
A fistulous comunication between kidney and colon after trauma is rare and usually causes severe damage to kidney necessitating nephrectomy. Intrarenal aneruysm after trauma is also rare and its accurate diagnosis is important. Authors have experienced a reno-colic fistula and intrarenal aneruysm occured in a same patient afterpenetrating renal injury.

10.Recent Development of Radiation Therapy for Breast Cancer.
Journal of the Korean Medical Association 2009;52(10):975-980
Breast cancer has become one of the most frequent malignancies among Korean women and the role of radiation therapy (RT) is expected to increase continuously. Current concepts in the treatment of breast cancer include a less radical surgery and the emergence of RT and systemic drug treatment. A surgery directed to minimize breast loss and RT to the whole breast has been the treatment of choice for early lesions. The use of whole breast irradiation (WBI) after the minimal breast surgery has been shown to significantly reduce the risk of recurrence in the affected breast and to increase the likelihood of long-term survival. Recently, there has been growing interest in the use of accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) as an alternative to WBI. APBI offers decreased overall treatment time and several advantages over WBI, including a decrease in the radiation dose delivered to uninvolved breast and adjacent organs. For the radiotherapy of breast cancer virtual simulation using the CT for three dimensional conformal RT has been widely used for external radiotherapy. The interstitial brachytherapy (insertion of radioactive source into the breast), balloon brachytherapy, and intraoperative electron therapy has been used for the APBI. Three dimensional radiotherapy including intensity modulated radiotherapy will be more widely used for breast cancer. RT fields are progressively reduced and APBI will be a realistic alternative in the future. CONCLUSION: The role of RT for treatment of breast cancer is important and the implementation of new RT technology will increase.
