We used calibrated 2D images uploaded by patients to an online platform to generate a 3D digital model of the limb. This was used to 3D print a splint. This method of 3D printing of splints was used for two patients who were not able to visit the hospital in person due to restrictions placed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Both patients were satisfied with the splint. We feel that this technology could be used to offer additional options to conventional splinting that allows contactless splint fitting. Level V (Therapeutic).
我们使用患者上传到在线平台的校准二维图像生成肢体的三维数字模型。该模型用于 3D 打印夹板。由于 COVID-19 大流行的限制,有两名无法亲自到医院就诊的患者使用了这种 3D 打印夹板的方法。两名患者均对夹板感到满意。我们认为,这项技术可以为传统夹板提供更多选择,实现无接触式夹板适配。 五级(治疗性)。
