High fidelity, low cost moulage as a valid simulation tool to improve burns education.

Simulation allows the opportunity for repeated practice in controlled, safe conditions. Moulage uses materials such as makeup to simulate clinical presentations. Moulage fidelity can be assessed by face validity (realism) and content validity (appropriateness). The aim of this project is to compare the fidelity of professional moulage to non-professional moulage in the context of a burns manage...

Facial moulage fabrication using a two-stage poly (vinyl siloxane) impression.

Traditional techniques for the fabrication of a facial moulage have relied on materials with various shortcomings. This article describes a two-stage Poly(vinyl siloxane) impression technique that avoids some of these shortcomings and provides a predictable and accurate facial moulage.

Comparative Accuracy of Facial Models Fabricated Using Traditional and 3D Imaging Techniques.

PURPOSE The purpose of this investigation was to compare the accuracy of facial models fabricated using facial moulage impression methods to the three-dimensional printed (3DP) fabrication methods using soft tissue images obtained from cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and 3D stereophotogrammetry (3D-SPG) scans. MATERIALS AND METHODS A reference phantom model was fabricated using a 3D-SPG ...

Beauty and the Biologic: Artistic Documentation of Scientific Breakthrough in Psoriasis

The making of wax moulages was an exclusive and sought-after art that was primarily used for teaching, but also to document clinical and laboratory research during the first half of the 20th century. Applying the technique of moulage-making to document a case of psoriasis improvement for posterity, a moulage of the trunk of a patient with psoriasis vulgaris was taken prior to treatment with bio...
