Emergency, Hospital de Braga, Braga, PRT.
Pericardial effusion refers to the accumulation of fluid within the pericardial sac, the double-layered membrane surrounding the heart. It can be caused by various medical conditions and may lead to serious complications if not diagnosed and managed promptly. Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has emerged as a valuable tool in the clinical evaluation of pericardial effusions, offering real-time visualization and aiding in the assessment of its size, characteristics, and potential hemodynamic impact.

Significance: The spatial distribution of the photosensitizing drug concentration is an important parameter for predicting the photodynamic therapy (PDT) outcome. Current diffuse fluorescence tomography methods lack accuracy in quantifying drug concentration. The development of accurate methods for monitoring the temporal evolution of the drug distribution in tissue can advance the real-time light dosimetry in PDT of tumors, leading to better treatment outcomes.

Traumatic brain injuries present significant diagnostic challenges in emergency medicine, where the timely interpretation of medical images is crucial for patient outcomes. In this paper, we propose a novel AI-based approach for automatic radiology report generation tailored to cranial trauma cases. Our model integrates an AC-BiFPN with a Transformer architecture to capture and process complex medical imaging data such as CT and MRI scans.

Surgery for spinal intramedullary tumors remains a major challenge for neurosurgeons. Successful surgery requires experience, skill, and intraoperative imaging support. Fluorescence imaging technology has become a valuable support in neurosurgical procedures of not only the brain but also the spinal cord.

This paper examines advancements in minimally invasive posterior decompression techniques for lumbar degenerative diseases. It focuses on the unilateral approach for bilateral decompression and bilateral approach for contralateral decompression, in which the entry side is determined independently of the symptomatic side to achieve a facet joint preservation rate of ≥ 70%, while also emphasizing contralateral foraminal decompression(CFD). These techniques address spinal instability by minimizing facet joint resection, reducing postoperative instability.
