Augmented synthetic dataset with structured light to develop Ai-based methods f...
Duarte, Bruno; Oliveira, Bruno; Torres, Helena R.; Morais, Pedro; Fonseca, Jaime C.; Vilaça, João L.Breast interventions are common healthcare procedures that nor mally require experienced professionals, expensive setups, and high execution times. With the evolution of robot-assisted technologies and image analysis algorithms, new methodologies can be imple mented to facilitate the interventions in this area. To enable the introduction of robot-assisted approaches for breast procedures, strategies with real-t...
Robust 3D breast reconstruction based on monocular images and artificial intell...
Duarte, Bruno; Oliveira, Bruno; Torres, Helena R.; Morais, Pedro André Gonçalves; Fonseca, Jaime C.; Vilaça, João L.Breast cancer is a global public health concern. For women with suspicious breast lesions, the current diagnosis requires a biopsy, which is usually guided by ultrasound (US). However, this process is challenging due to the low quality of the US image and the complexity of dealing with the US probe and the surgical needle simultaneously, making it largely reliant on the surgeon's expertise. Some previous works ...
Combination of naltrexone and isotretinoin for the treatment of darier disease
Costa, Tomás; Rebelo, Clarisse; Pinto, Gabriela Marques; Duarte, BrunoDarier disease (DD) is an autosomal-dominant genodermatosis in which mutations in the ATP2A2 gene result in impaired intercellular adhesion and epidermal blistering. Treatment options usually rely on systemic retinoids, but a refractory disease is still a therapeutical challenge. Given the similarity of DD pathogenesis with Hailey-Hailey disease, concomitant treatment with low-dose-naltrexone (LDN) has been pro...

A Rare Type of Balanitis
Duarte, Bruno; Rodrigues, Ana; Fernandes, CândidaSyphilis is an old disease and a major public health concern, which is re-emerging in the western world. Atypical syphi- litic presentations can be challenging to diagnose. We present a 23-year-old, HIV-positive man who has sex with men who presented with a 2-week history of an asymptomatic lesion on the glans. Previous topical and systemic treatments proved unsuccessful. Physical examination demonstrated a sli...
Five-Year Risk of Basal Cell Carcinoma Recurrence After a Conventional Surgical...
Duarte, Bruno; Vieira, Luis; Ribeiro, Luis; Pessoa e Costa, Tomás; João, Alexandre; Varanda, Alice; Cabete, JoanaIntroduction: Basal cell carcinomas are mostly treated surgically, mostly by surgery with postoperative histopathologic margin evaluation (“conventional surgery”), but large long-term data regarding recurrence by completeness of excisions is limited. Methods: Retrospective cohort study of basal cell carcinomas treated by conventional surgery at different medical specialties in a large tertiary centre, between 2...
A exploração do conceito de presença em palco no contexto da técnica de dança c...
Duarte, BrunoA presença em palco é uma das competências performativas de maior impacto em contexto cénico, mas é, frequentemente, sobreolhada nas aulas de Técnicas de Dança, em favor de um indispensável zelo ao desenvolvimento técnico. Toma-se como ponto de partida para a implementação prática deste estágio a interrogação acerca do valor da sua exploração, enquanto processo de fundamento artístico, em contexto pré-coreográf...
God is in the Details: Surgical Pearl for Lower Lip Wedge Resection
Duarte, Bruno; Goulão, JoãoMalignant tumours of the lower lip are common and wedge resections are frequently used to address these lesions. Since the lips are paramount for symmetry and overall aesthetics, even minor deformities can lead to disastrous changes. One of these could result from improper intra-operatory antero-posterior alignment between the anterior (cutaneous) and posterior (mucosal) vertex of the wedge, as the latter is no...
How to Perform Videos in Dermatologic Surgery? A Simple and Inexpensive Recordi...
Duarte, Bruno; Goulão, JoãoVideo recording surgical procedures is one of the most valuable tools for teaching and self-assessment in Dermatologic Surgery. A number of recording systems have been described in the literature. Nevertheless, they’re usually expensive (~500€) and time-consuming to prepare, the latter being a major disadvantage for a busy surgical speciality such as Dermatology. The authors describe a simple and inexpensive te...
O ideal da citação: : Lessing – Schlegel – Benjamin
Duarte, BrunoOs textos de Gotthold Ephraim Lessing, Friedrich Schlegel e Walter Benjamin partilham entre si um ideal de crítica. Na sua tentativa de repensar e reconfigurar a figura do crítico, bem como o ato da crítica enquanto tal, todos eles foram levados a imaginar a transformação desse ideal aludindo a uma série de conceitos e disciplinas fundamentais que procuram incorporar o espírito crítico como um gesto particular:...
