Abstract: The present invention relates to a radiation amount estimating method, and more particularly, to a radiation amount estimating method of an MRI based composite image using a lookup table. To this end, the object of the present invention is to provide a radiation dose estimating method of an MRI based composite image using a lookup table including: generating a lookup table representing a linear attenuation coefficient of a region of interest from a CT image (S100); photographing at least two of a T1 image, a T2 image, and a PETRA image of a patient from MRI equipment (S120); generating a composite image by superimposing the photographed images (S140); representing a border line of the region of interest in the composite image to distinguish the region of interest (S160); designating the linear attenuation coefficient of the lookup table in the distinguished region of interest (S180); and estimating a radiation dose based on the composite image to which the linear attenuation coefficient is designated (S200).

Abstract: Rotation control systems for a rotation unit of an apparatus for manufacturing semiconductor devices include a control circuit configured to control an electrical power connection to the rotation unit to rotate the rotation unit in a desired direction responsive to a sensed rotational direction of the rotation unit. Rotation units including the rotation control system of the present invention may further include a rotation unit, a rotational direction sensing unit that senses an actual direction of rotation of the rotation unit and generates an output signal based on the sensing result and a rotational direction determining unit that determines the actual direction of rotation of the rotation unit in response to the output signal of the rotational direction sensing unit.
