Summary The first part of this review examined ISO approval requirements and in vitro testing. In the second part, non-standardized test methods for composite materials are presented and discussed. Physical tests are primarily described. Analyses of surface gloss and alterations, as well as aging simulations of dental materials are presented. Again, the importance of laboratory tests in determining clinical outcomes is evaluated. Differences in the measurement protocols of the various testing institutes and how these differences can in?uence the results are also discussed. Because there is no standardization of test protocols, the values determined by different institutes cannot be directly compared. However, the ranking of the tested materials should be the same if a valid protocol is applied by different institutes. The modulus of elasticity, the expansion after water sorption, and the polishability of the material are all clinically relevant, whereas factors measured by other test protocols may have no clinical correlation. The handling properties of the materials are highly dependent on operators' preferences. Therefore, no standard values can be given.

An automated algorithm for detection of the acetabular rim was developed. Accuracy of the algorithm was validated in a sawbone study and compared against manually conducted digitization attempts, which were established as the ground truth. The latter proved to be reliable and reproducible, demonstrated by almost perfect intra- and interobserver reliability. Validation of the automated algorithm showed no significant difference compared to the manually acquired data in terms of detected version and inclination. Automated detection of the acetabular rim contour and the spatial orientation of the acetabular opening plane can be accurately achieved with this algorithm.
