http://www.creaform3d.com/en/handyscan3d/products/ergoscan.aspx - The ERGOscan truly portable, self-positioning handheld laser scanner delivers great benefits for the medical and biomechanics industries. The ERGOscan is a greatly innovative 3D scanning device that proves extremely useful and efficient in the fields of orthotics and prosthetics, among others. Thanks to quick shape acquisition and an very high accuracy, the ERGOscan technology allows the production of customized and perfectly-fitted devices and makes for reduced turnaround times. Plus, it offers a great alternative to traditional, tiresome and messier methods like plaster casts.
Applications
- Orthotics/Prosthetics:
o Custom-making of artificial limbs or body part replacements
o The limb to be fitted is scanned, and the data acquired is transferred into computer-assisted design (CAD) applications for design, measurement, rectification, retrofitting, and production purposes
o Loaded/unloaded 3D digital impressions (foot imprints).
- Cranial scans: For the treatment of positional plagiocephaly in infants: non-contact and quick measurement of the skull for digital manufacturing of soft shell therapeutic helmets and follow-up on the treatment.
- Plastic/aesthetic surgery: 3D scanning of body parts (ear, hand, foot, nose) in order to produce a perfectly fitted and exact match prosthesis or reconstruction.
- Podiatrics: 3D scanning of the feet/toes/ankles for the manufacturing of customized podiatric orthesis or apparel.
- Wound care: Non contact and painless 3D scanning of wounds for treatment and follow-up purposes (ex.: depth and length measurement at different stages of the healing process).
ERGOscan 3D Scanner Benefits
Here is how the ERGOscan laser scanner can contribute to various medical processes.
Laser-accurate measurement: The shape acquired is very accurate and constant, no matter who takes the measurements and how, or in what environment it is done (vs manual measuring).
Totally eye-safe: Our class I laser guarantees patients' and technicians' absolute eyes safety
Quick data acquisition: Scanning sessions are short, which reduces the consultation duration and makes it possible to see more patients.
Quick file transfer: The system generates direct 3D files that can be electronically transferred in seconds.
Non sensitive to movement: Even with slight movements from the patient, the system is able to pursue the data acquisition without any loss in accuracy.
User-friendly: The session can be paused and resumed if necessary. Very short learning curve; no extensive training required.
Non-invasive: Non-contact scanning process, thus reducing the trauma and discomfort of patients.
Truly portable and lightweight: Fits in a suitcase the size of a carry-on. Can be carried effortlessly from one room/facility to the other, or directly to the patient's home.
3D archiving: The future is now! The system generates 3D files that can be archived in electronic medical record databases: no more heavy casts and molds to warehouse and organize!
Clean: Great alternative to traditional, tiresome and messier casting methods.

That's cool, but is there any notion of price?
