Artec 3D scanning for custom prosthetics
Tailor prosthetics to patients with a new level of speed and accuracy using Artec 3D scanners.
3D scanning for prosthetics
With Artec 3D scanning, you can easily take precise, non-contact measurements of patients in seconds. Utilizing these scans, it’s then possible to create whatever prosthetic they may need, whether that be an initial check socket or full artificial limb. No more plaster casting or tangled tape measures to get in your way.
Non-contact 3D scanning guarantees patient comfort and frees them from the burden of having residual limbs measured via physical casting.
Artec 3D scanners help meet prosthetic demand by enabling limb digitization in seconds and full-body modeling in under a minute.
Artec 3D scanners can safely be used to monitor patients’ changing anatomies and ensure care plans stay relevant to their medical needs.
Artec 3D scanning is so easy to pick up and use that you can start confidently digitizing patients’ extremities in two hours or less.
Applications
Tailor-make prosthetics
Whether you’re creating prosthetics for a senior citizen or an athlete, starting with the right data is vital – Artec 3D scanning allows you to get this accurately and non-intrusively.
Treat debilitating diseases
Improve the lives of deadly disease survivors with lightweight, durable body implants that look and feel like a natural extension of their anatomies.
Monitor residual limbs
Artec 3D scanners make it easy to track residual limb changes with submillimeter precision, and transition patients from check sockets to prosthetics.
Aid patient recovery
Using Artec 3D scanners, doctors can assess limbs before and after surgery, and make potentially life-changing recommendations.
Draw on existing ideas
With Artec 3D scanning you don’t have to start from scratch – reverse engineer existing sockets, casts, and molds as a basis for your own.
Dream up new designs
Boost the appeal of prosthetics – use patient 3D scan data to develop custom false limbs with upgrades such as waterproofing.
Success stories
Artec 3D hardware
Artec 3D scanning allows clinicians to rapidly take measurements of patients’ bodies, assess their response to surgeries, and create implants or prosthetics that improve quality of life.
Artec 3D software
Make light work of 3D scanning with Artec Studio, which compensates for movement, so you don’t have to worry about accuracy errors caused by patient shuffling.
Accurately digitized body parts – ideal for creating prosthetics
Artec 3D scan data is so accurate that it can be used to develop dental, orthotic, prosthetic and other medical implants that look like a genuine extension of patients’ bodies.
