  • This study reported the treatment of a patient with excessive worn dentition and limited maxillo-mandibular space for restoration, utilizing the computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology. After the thorough examination of the patient's occlusal vertical dimension (OVD), full mouth rehabilitation was planned with increase of the OVD. The patient was satisfied with the provisional restorations establishing the increased OVD. The horizontal and vertical data of the patient's jaw relation that the provisional restorations contained were transferred to the definitive metal ceramic fixed prostheses by double scanning and three-dimensional printing. After the fixed restorations were cemented to the abutments, electronic surveying and three-dimensional printing were used to fabricate metal frameworks for the patient's removable partial dentures. The mandibular definitive removable prostheses were delivered to the patient's mouth and the full mouth rehabilitation procedures were completed. The digital technologies used for this case produced fixed and removable restorations satisfactory in masticatory, phonetic and aesthetic functions to both the patient and the dental clinician.

  • This paper proposes a computer-aided diagnostic algorithm in a non-invasive way. Currently, clinical diagnosis of jaundice is performed through blood sampling. Unlike the old methods, the non-invasive method will enable parents to measure newborns' jaundice by only using their mobile phones. The proposed algorithm enables high accuracy and quick diagnosis through machine learning. In here, we used the SVM model of machine learning that learned the feature extracted through image preprocessing and we used the international jaundice research data as the test data set. As a result of applying our developed algorithm, it took about 5 seconds to diagnose jaundice and it showed a 93.4% prediction accuracy. The software is real-time diagnosed and it minimizes the infant's pain by non-invasive method and parents can easily and temporarily diagnose newborns' jaundice. In the future, we aim to use the jaundice photograph of the newborn babies' data as our test data set for more accurate results.

  • A form-finding technique is proposed for three-dimensional spatial structures. Two-step discrete finite element (FE) mesh generator based on computer aided geometric design (CAGD) is introduced and used to control the shape of three-dimensional spatial structures. Mathematical programming technique is adopted to search new forms (or shapes) of spatial structures. For this purpose, the strain energy is introduced as the objective function to be minimized and the initial volume (or the initial weight) is considered as constraint function. Numerical examples are carried out to test the capability of the proposed form-finding techniques and provided as benchmark tests.

  • PURPOSE. Recently introduced hybrid and reinforced glass ceramic computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) materials have been used for full-coverage restorations. However; the effect of adjustment and type of materials on internal and marginal adaptation are unknown. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the marginal and internal adaptations of crowns made of three different CAD/CAM materials before and after adjustment. MATERIALS AND METHODS. One acrylic resin maxillary first molar was prepared and served as the master die. Thirty-six restorations were fabricated using CAD/CAM system (CEREC Omnicam, MCXL) with three materials including lithium disilicate (IPS e.max CAD), zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (Suprinity), and hybrid ceramic (Enamic). Internal and marginal adaptations were evaluated with the reference point matching technique before and after adjustment. The data were analyzed using mixed ANOVA considering α=.05 as the significance level. RESULTS. The effect of adjustment and its interaction with the restoration material were significant for marginal, absolute marginal, and occlusal discrepancies (P<.05). Before adjustment, Suprinity had lower marginal discrepancies than IPS e.max CAD (P=.18) and Enamic (P=.021); though no significant differences existed after adjustment. CONCLUSION. Within the limitations of this study, crowns fabricated from IPS e.max CAD and Suprinity resulted in slightly better adaptation compared with Enamic crowns before adjustment. However, marginal, axial, and occlusal discrepancies were similar among all materials after the adjustment.

  • This research is devoted to investigate Omar Khayyām's geometric solution for the cubic equation using conic sections in the Medieval Islam as a useful alternative connecting logic geometry with analytic geometry at a secondary school. We also introduce Omar Khayyām's 25 cases classification of the cubic equation with all positive coefficients. Moreover we study 6 cases with 4 terms of 25 cubic equations and in particular we reinterpret geometric methods of solving in 2015 secondary Mathematics curriculum and visualize them by means of dynamic geometry software.

  • In a situation where a vertical dimension has to be increased, the normal occlusion, function and aesthetics should be restored after taking into consideration the neuromuscular system and temporomandibular join. In order to do this, the provisional prosthesis should be made according to the patient's information. Moreover, the period of adjustment should be made through the provisional prosthesis modification, if necessary. The patient is then transferred to the final prosthesis to obtain results that are satisfactory. In the modern-day world, provisional prosthesis are replicated using three dimensional scanning and computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) then made into final prosthesis. The adaptability of stomatognathic system can be judged by the PMMA provisional restoration. Functional and aesthetical aspect can be obtained. The adjustment period can be shortened by an intraoral correction and proper wear between provisional restorations. By using the CAD/CAM technology that transfers the information right into the final prosthesis.

  • 최근 몇 년간 방사선 의학진단과 관련된 연구가 한층 높아진 가운데 유방암은 여성의 암 중에서 1위를 차지하고 조기에 진단하고 치료하기 위한 국가적인 노력이 필요한 시점이다. 이렇듯 여성들의 유방암 발생빈도수가 급증하면서 대두 되고 있는 것이 조기 진단방법인 Mammography와 초음파 진단이며 그로인하여 발생하는 오진률 역시 많은 연구가 진행 되고 있다. 먼저 Mammography 및 초음파 진단의 문제점 보면 첫째 촬영과정에서의 오차, 둘째 영상의 선명도 ,셋째 전문의의 판독에 대한오차, 넷째 의사의 경험으로 진단함으로 표준화가 존재하지 않는다는 공통적인 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 CAD 시스템의 프레임웍 및 요소 기술을 제시하여 의사의 진단을 보조적 수행이 보다 수월하도록 하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 CAD시스템의 기능은 Detection기능(Image enhancement, Morphology, segment detection)과 Diagnosis기능( Neural Natwork등을 이용하여 증상을 판단)이다. 또한 과거 자료를 이용한 변이 및 변화를 예측함으로써 향후 있을 위험요소에 대비가 가능한 모듈과 전문의사가 대화형으로 빠르게 진단지식을 구축할 수 있는 지능형, 대화형 온라인 진단기능을 추가함으로써 외국의 CAD시스템과는 많은 차이가 있다고 볼 수 있다.

  • Computer-aided diagnosis of breast cancer is an important medical approach. In this research paper, we focus on combining two major methodologies, namely fuzzy base systems and the evolutionary genetic algorithms and on applying them to the Saudi Arabian breast cancer diagnosis database, to aid physicians in obtaining an early-computerized diagnosis and hence prevent the development of cancer through identification and removal or treatment of premalignant abnormalities; early detection can also improve survival and decrease mortality by detecting cancer at an early stage when treatment is more effective. Our hybrid algorithm, the genetic-fuzzy algorithm, has produced optimized systems that attain high classification performance, with simple and readily interpreted rules and with a good degree of confidence.
