Patent granted for 3D printing of foot orthotics in the clinic
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONSTRUCTING CUSTOMIZED FOOT ORTHOTICS Quote: A method of constructing a customized foot orthotic model comprises receiving a model for a contoured surface of a foot device, the model corresponding to a plantar surface of a foot.
