An adapter was designed to hold a negative cast of a torso in position for mechanical digitization. Once a spinal shape is digitized, the data file can be loaded into a CAD CAM system for modification and manufacturing of a positive model for an orthosis. The adapter currently fits a Seattle Digitizer (M+IND, Seattle, WA); however, the interface unit can be changed to accommodate other commercial digitizers. By using this adapter, current lower limb prosthetic CAD CAM systems can be used to design and manufacture spinal orthoses.
设计了一种适配器，用于将躯干的阴模固定在适当位置以便进行机械数字化。一旦脊柱形状被数字化，数据文件就可以加载到CAD/CAM系统中，用于修改和制造矫形器的阳模。该适配器目前适用于西雅图数字化仪（M+IND，华盛顿州西雅图）；然而，接口单元可以更换，以适应其他商用数字化仪。通过使用这种适配器，当前的下肢假肢CAD/CAM系统可用于设计和制造脊柱矫形器。
