摘要:
Systems, methods, and software are provided for modifying a prosthetic socket to better fit a residual limb of a patient. The embodiments disclosed herein may align and compare a first shape corresponding to an interior surface of the prosthetic socket or a residual limb shape to a second shape corresponding to a desired socket shape or a rectified residual limb shape. A socket insert or pad may be manufactured per the comparison. The socket insert or pad may be configured to be affixable within the patient's prosthetic socket to modify the interior surface of the prosthetic socket such that the modified prosthetic socket provides a better fit to the residual limb of the patient.
