Background and Aim: Chairside computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems have become considerably more accurate, reliable, efficient, fast, and prevalent since 1985 when CEREC was introduced. The inceptive restorative material option for chairside CAD/CAM restorations was limited to ceramic blocks. Today, restorative material options have been multiplied and include me...

background: the aim of this study was to determine the microtensile bond strength (μtbs) of ceramic and composite computer aided design‑computer aided manufacturing (cad‑cam) blocks bonded to dentin using different adhesive strategies. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 30 crowns of sound freshly extracted human molars were sectioned horizontally 3 mm above the cementoenamel junctio...

Molecular modeling is a set of computational techniques for construction of 3D structure of a protein especially membrane bound proteins whose structures can not be elucidated using experimental techniques. These techniques has been applied in the study of membrane metalloproteases for comparing wild and mutated enzymes, docking inhibitors in the catalytic site and examination of binding pocket...

introduction breast cancer is the second cause of mortality among women. early detection of it can enhance the chance of survival. screening systems such as mammography cannot perfectly differentiate between patients and healthy individuals. computer-aided diagnosis can help physicians make a more accurate diagnosis. materials and methods regarding the importance of separating normal and abnorm...
