Automatic Small Bowel Tumor Diagnosis by Using Multi-Scale Wavelet-Based Analys...

BACKGROUND: Wireless capsule endoscopy has been introduced as an innovative, non-invasive diagnostic technique for evaluation of the gastrointestinal tract, reaching places where conventional endoscopy is unable to. However, the output of this technique is an 8 hours video, whose analysis by the expert physician is very time consuming. Thus, a computer assisted diagnosis tool to help the physicians to evaluate ...

Computer simulation of the carotid artery

Background: Disturbed flow conditions at the bifurcation of common carotid artery and proximal internal carotid artery plays an important role in the development of local atherosclerotic plaques, which are important causes of stroke. Being able to build 3D models based on ultrasound imaging can improve diagnostic assessment and support interventions like endarterectomy or carotid stenting. Our aim was to descri...

Angolatitan adamastor, a new sauropod dinosaur and the first record from Angola

A forelimb of a new sauropod dinosaur (Angolatitan adamastor n. gen. et sp.) from the Late Turonian of Iembe (Bengo Province) represents the first dinosaur discovery in Angola, and is one of the few occurrences of sauropod dinosaurs in sub-Saharan Africa collected with good chronological controls. The marginal marine sediments yielding the specimen are reported to be late Turonian in age and, thus it represents...

Photocatalytic activity and UV- protection of TiO2 nanocoatings on polylactic a...

The application of nanocoatings in the textile finishing is increasingly being explored because they open a whole new vista of value-addition possibilities in the textile sector. In the present work, low temperature pulsed DC magnetron sputtering method was used to create functional TiO2 nanocoatings on poly(lactic acid) textile fibres surfaces. In this study, the principal objectives in the application of TiO2...

Aprender a construir com terra através da andorinha-dos-beirais

O facto de a terra ser natural, ecológica, reciclável e abundante faz com que possa ser considerada um material de construção de eleição e com um enorme potencial. Na construção tradicional portuguesa as soluções construtivas que usam terra como material de construção têm uma importante expressão. Este património construído necessita de ser conservado. Neste contexto, o presente trabalho tem como principal obje...
