Avaliação da qualidade e densidade da cortiça – Um estudo piloto com tomografia...
Pinheiro, João; Caldeira Lagem Abrantes, António Fernando; Brito, GilmarA cortiça é uma matéria-prima natural, renovável e sustentável, utilizada há muitos séculos. Os produtos obtidos a partir da casca da cortiça representam um importante recurso económico para vários países. O controle de qualidade é realizado em diversas etapas, porém, a maioria desses controlos são verificações visuais realizadas por pessoas experientes. O controlo de qualidade das rolhas de cortiça é obrigatór...
Access to public green spaces as a factor in combating environmental injustice
de Sousa Silva, Catarina; Bell, Simon; Lackóová, Lenka; Panagopoulos, ThomasEnsuring equitable access to urban green spaces is a major challenge in contemporary urban planning, with important implications for public health, well-being and environmental justice. However, comparative cross-city analyses based on harmonised methodologies remain limited, particularly across contrasting European climatic and morphological contexts. This study aims to: (i) assess the spatial distribution of ...
Bone retouchers and end-scrapers side by side at bushman rock shelter: explorin...
Val, Aurore; Tribolo, Chantal; Schmid, Viola C.; Igreja, Marina; Texier, Pierre-Jean; Mercier, Norbert; Galy, Asmodée; Pécheyran, ChristopheA growing body of archaeological data points towards distinct cultural innovations during Marine Isotopic Stage (MIS) 5 in Africa. At Bushman Rock Shelter in South Africa, we described previously a large corpus of end-scrapers that constitute a technological novelty in the context of MIS 5 developments. Here, we describe 25 bones with impressions collected from the same deposits. Middle Stone Age layers at the ...
Tourist behaviour in four- and five-star hotels in the Algarve before and durin...
Ferreira, Ana; Correia, Marisol B.; Renda, Ana Isabel; Antonio, NunoThis study aims to examine the behaviour of tourists staying in four- and five-star hotels in Portugal’s Algarve region before and during the pandemic and to identify differences between these periods. To achieve this, 17,601 online reviews published on Trip Advisor between January 2018 and April 2023 were analysed using NVivo 14 software. The findings reveal that guest behaviour during the pandemic closely mir...
Integrating three-dimensional printing into radiology practice: workflow, perfo...
Pinheiro, João; Ribeiro, Luís Pedro; Magalhães Ribeiro, Anabela de; Boeiro, H.; Seiça, E.; Gonçalves, M.; Gonçalves, R.; Luz, L.; Sousa, J. PauloTo evaluate the feasibility, performance, and workflow integration of three-dimensional printing within a radiology department, assessing imaging acquisition parameters, segmentation software, printing technologies, material selection, costs, and staff perception across multiple anatomical regions.
Abdominal Ultrasound Phantom – A potential training tool
Pinheiro, João; Magalhães Ribeiro, Anabela de; Ribeiro, Luís PedroThe purpose of this educational intervention was to evaluate the effectiveness of abdominal ultrasound phantoms as a simulation-based learning tool in the training of Medical Imaging and Radiology students. Abdominal ultrasonography is a highly operator-dependent modality, yet undergraduate training is often limited by restricted patient access, ethical considerations, and reduced opportunities for supervised p...
Metacognitive training (MCT-Silver) for older adults with depressive symptoms i...
Silva, Celso Filipe Boto; Alves, Elisabete; Schneider, Brooke C.; Sampaio, Francisco; Morgado, Bruno; Santos, Bruno M.; Correia, Tânia; Coelho, JoanaPurpose Depressive symptoms in older adults represent a significant concern with major life impact. This uncontrolled pilot study evaluated the safety, feasibility and acceptance of metacognitive training for depression in later life (MCT-Silver) among Portuguese older adults. MCT-Silver is an 8-week psychological group intervention targeting (meta)cognitive beliefs to reduce depressive symptoms. The study also...
Do virtual dissection tables add benefits to physical models in anatomy educati...
Pinheiro, João; Magalhães Ribeiro, Anabela de; Ribeiro, Luís PedroThe purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate whether virtual dissection tables, particularly the Anatomage system, provide added educational value when used as a complement to physical anatomical models and cadaver-based teaching in anatomy education. Given the increasing challenges associated with traditional cadaveric dissection—including ethical constraints, high costs, and limited availability—this...
3D Printing: A new dimension for anatomy education
Pinheiro, João; Ribeiro, Luís Pedro; Magalhães Ribeiro, Anabela de; Gonçalves, R.; Luz, L.; Seiça, E.; Gonçalves, M.; Sousa, J. Paulo; Silva, L.The purpose of this pedagogical practice was to evaluate the feasibility, cost-effectiveness, and educational value of three-dimensional (3D) printed anatomical models in the teaching of human anatomy. Advances in medical imaging and 3D printing have enabled the conversion of CT and MRI data into physical models, offering new opportunities to enhance spatial understanding, tactile learning, and student engageme...
Ultrasound abdominal phantom - A possible training tool for radiographers and m...
Pinheiro, João; Ribeiro, Luís PedroSimulation-based learning (SBL) is extensively utilized in healthcare education to offer students a safe environment for practicing clinical scenarios without risking patient safety. Simulation plays a crucial role in training, assessment, and research across fields such as aviation, nuclear power, and the military, and is poised to become a mandatory aspect of health professional education. It is essential for...
