چکیده

A CAD (computer aided design) analysis software package (CADVIEW) was designed for use with prosthetic and orthotic CAD CAM (computer aided design/computer aided manufacture) systems. Using the Microsoft Windows 3.1 environment, CADVIEW provides a series of anatomical shape viewing and analysis tools. These tools include simultaneous display of multiple sockets and multiple views, two dimensional (2D) and three dimensional (3D) measurement, shape statistics, multi-shape alignment, cross-sectional comparison, colour coded 3D comparison, resolution enhancement, and image copying capabilities. This programme should be of benefit to clinicians and researchers who wish to assess and/or compare CAD data generated by MS-DOS based CAD CAM systems.

The use of CAD/CAM technology in prosthetics and orthotics--current clinical models and a view to the future.

This report examines the current clinical uses of CAD/CAM in prosthetics and orthotics. We conducted interviews to contrast patterns of CAD/CAM use in different private practice settings, at two different teaching institutions, and within two large Prosthetic and Orthotic delivery systems. Investigation into these patterns of use has revealed several lessons. First, there currently exist severa...

Validation of a quantitative method for defining CAD/CAM socket modifications.

A quantitative method was developed for defining manual socket modifications, averaging these modifications over a series of amputees, and using the average modifications as a template in commercial CAD/CAM systems. The CADVIEW programme (i.e. software for viewing and analysing CAD sockets) was rewritten to provide comparison functions for aligning sockets to a common axis, visualising the diff...
