Computer-Aided Design CAD is the use of electronic tools to design products on a computer screen instead of by hand CAD has numerous benefits for O&P… What is CAD?
Plaster is messy and takes a long time to dry CAD eliminates the use of plaster entirely! No Messy Plaster
Accuracy is how close a measured value is to the actual value CAD is much more accurate than hand-casting OMEGA Scanner is accurate to +/- 0.5mm High Degree of Accuracy
With plaster: Patient must hold one position for several minutes Patient must wait for plaster to dry Exceptionally Fast and Easy for the Patient CAD completely eliminates these issues, increasing comfort and convenience for the patient
CAD’s electronic tools allow the clinician to make any modification that is possible with plaster… but much more precisely, and in a fraction of the time Full Range of Modification Tools
A result is repeatable when, each time the clinician measures the same patient using the same equipment, the measurements are the same CAD is much more repeatable than hand-casting Extremely Repeatable
Office CAD shape-capture devices are PORTABLEand can easilybe used at a variety of locations! Nursing Facility Patient Home Hospital
Complete medical record for each patient including modifications done to shapes Documentation
Cranial BK/AK AE/BE Suitable for a wide variety of patients! Spinal
For uniquely-shaped patients who aren’t suited to off-the-shelf components, CAD can be used to create custom components such as Alpha DESIGN Liners Creation of Custom Interfaces
