Automatic modeling of an orthotic bracing for nonoperative correction of Pectus...

Pectus Carinatum is a deformity of the chest wall, characterized by an anterior protrusion of the sternum, often corrected surgically due to cosmetic motivation. This work presents an alternative approach to the current open surgery option, proposing a novel technique based on a personalized orthosis. Two different processes for the orthosis’ personalization are presented. One based on a 3D laser scan of the pa...

Molecular mechanisms beyond glucose transport in diabetes-related male infertility

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the greatest public health threats in modern societies. Although during a few years it was suggested that DM had no significant effect in male reproductive function, this view has been challenged in recent years. The increasing incidence of DM worldwide will inevitably result in a higher prevalence of this pathology in men of reproductive age and subfertility or infertility asso...

Avaliação do risco de inundação numa zona urbana. Aplicação ao Rio Febros

O risco de inundação resulta do produto da probabilidade do perigo, da vulnerabilidade e do valor dos elementos expostos. O objectivo deste estudo é elaborar a carta de risco de inundação para um troço (4 km) do rio Febros no Concelho de Vila Nova de Gaia. O processamento de dados espaciais de alta resolução permite extrair dados de entrada para a modelação hidráulica de inundação. Para atingir estes objectivos...

Flood hazard mapping by integrating airborne laser scanning data, high resoluti...

The assessment and management of flood risks framework impose the mapping of flood hazard in potential flood risks areas. Floods in urban environments may happen due to rainfall extreme events and be exacerbated by saturated or impervious surfaces. Flood risk is greater in urban areas. (...)

Automatic segmentation and 3D feature extraction of protein aggregates in Caeno...

In the last years, it has become increasingly clear that neurodegenerative diseases involve protein aggregation, a process often used as disease progression readout and to develop therapeutic strategies. This work presents an image processing tool to automatic segment, classify and quantify these aggregates and the whole 3D body of the nematode Caenorhabditis Elegans. A total of 150 data set images, containing ...

Virtual simulation of the postsurgical cosmetic outcome in patientswith pectus ...

Pectus excavatum is the most common congenital deformity of the anterior chest wall, in which several ribs and the sternum grow abnormally. Nowadays, the surgical correction is carried out in children and adults through Nuss technic. This technic has been shown to be safe with major drivers as cosmesis and the prevention of psychological problems and social stress. Nowadays, no application is known to predict t...
