Assessment of 3D scanners for modeling Pectus Carinatum corrective bar
Moreira, António H. J.; Fonseca, João Gomes; Rodrigues, Pedro L.; Fonseca, Jaime C.; Pinho, A.C.M.; Correia-Pinto, Jorge; F. Rodrigues, NunoPectus Carinatum (PC) is a chest deformity consisting on the anterior protrusion of the sternum and adjacent costal cartilages. Non-operative corrections, such as the orthotic compression brace, require previous information of the patient chest surface, to improve the overall brace fit. This paper focuses on the validation of the Kinect scanner for the modelling of an orthotic compression brace for the correcti...
Variations of the soft tissue thicknesses external to the ribs in Pectus Excava...
Rodrigues, Pedro L.; Direito-Santos, Bruno; Moreira, António H. J.; Fonseca, Jaime C.; Pinho, A.C.M.; F. Rodrigues, Nuno; Henriques-Coelho, TiagoBackground: Surgical repair of pectus excavatum (PE) has become more popular due to improvements in the minimally invasive Nuss procedure. The pre-surgical assessment of PE patients requires Computerized Tomography (CT), as the malformation characteristics vary from patient to patient. Objective: This work aims to characterize soft tissue thickness (STT) external to the ribs among PE patients. It also presents ...
Thoracic wall reconstruction using ultrasound images to model/bend the thoracic...
Fonseca, João Gomes; Moreira, António H. J.; Rodrigues, Pedro L.; Fonseca, Jaime; Pinho, A.C.M; Correia-Pinto, Jorge; F. Rodrigues, NunoPectus excavatum is the most common congenital deformity of the anterior thoracic wall. The surgical correction of such deformity, using Nuss procedure, consists in the placement of a personalized convex prosthesis into sub-sternal position to correct the deformity. The aim of this work is the CT-scan substitution by ultrasound imaging for the pre-operative diagnosis and pre-modeling of the prosthesis, in order...
Pectus Excavatum postsurgical outcome based on preoperative soft body dynamics ...
Moreira, António H.; Rodrigues, Pedro L.; Fonseca, Jaime; Pinho, A.C.M.; F. Rodrigues, Nuno; Correia-Pinto, Jorge; Vilaça, João L.Pectus excavatum is the most common congenital deformity of the anterior chest wall, in which an abnormal formation of the rib cage gives the chest a caved-in or sunken appearance. Today, the surgical correction of this deformity is carried out in children and adults through Nuss technic, which consists in the placement of a prosthetic bar under the sternum and over the ribs. Although this technique has been sh...
