Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(11):1446-1450.   Published online November 15, 2000
Purpose : Acute otitis media is one of the most prevalent diseases of childhood and can cause serious complications such as hearing loss. The exact diagnosis is extremely important but may be hard to make because of probabilities of over- and underdiagnosis. We performed impedance audiometry(IA) in routine examinations for acute otitis media and applied it for screening and follow-up...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(12):1711-1716.   Published online December 15, 1999
Purpose : To determine the role of Tc-99m HMPAO SPECT imaging in children with intractable seizure by evaluating the interictal period. Methods : We compared the EEG, CT and MRI medical records with those of Tc-99m HMPAO SPECT in 42 patients with intractable seizure referred to Kyunghee University Hospital, from April 1983 to September 1998, retrospectively. Results : Mean age was 8.3 years...

Gyo-Dang Koo, Young-Ho Rah, Chong-Woo Bae, Sa-Jun Chung, Yong-Mook Choi
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(1):74-80.   Published online January 15, 1998
Purpose : Early diagnosis of foreign body aspiration and removal of the inhaled material may save the patient from chronic illness and may prevent serious complications. At present the diagnostic problems of bronchial foreign bodies are being solved by using the lung scanning technique. Therefore, we investigated the clinical study and diagnositic value of the lung perfusion scan in foreign body aspiration. Methods : Eighteen...
