Computer Aided Design and Manufacture of Transfemoral Prosthesis / 中国康复理论与实践

@#ObjectiveTo study a fast and feasible system in clinical application of computer aided socket design and manufacture. MethodsThe biomechanical index were compared of traditional hand-made prosthetic sockets and of computer aided design and manufacture ones based on 3D scanning and reverse engineering. ResultsThe index from 3 cases wearing the computer aided design and manufacture socket prostheses appeared similar or better in static mechanical parameters, walking kinetic parameters and stump-socket interface pressure than they wearing traditional hand-made ones. ConclusionThis computer aided socket design and manufacture system can meet patients' needs in using their prostheses.
