2D and 3D digital imaging - PiedRéseau Boisbriand
PiedRéseau Boisbriand offers advanced 2D and 3D digital imaging services as part of its comprehensive podiatric care. This innovative technology allows for precise foot digitization, essential for accurate diagnosis and the creation of custom-made plantar orthotics. By capturing detailed impressions of the feet, our clinicians can better understand and address various foot-related issues.
The 2D imaging technique utilizes a podograph to create a detailed map of the foot’s plantar surface. This method highlights key characteristics such as foot size, arch type, and weight distribution. In contrast, the 3D scanning method employs advanced sensors to reproduce the entire morphology of the foot, providing a more in-depth analysis of foot structure. Both techniques contribute significantly to diagnosing discomfort and designing effective orthotics.
Our digital imaging process is efficient and painless, ensuring a comfortable experience for our patients. The methods used include load, semi-load, and no-load impression techniques, allowing for a thorough assessment of foot dynamics. This detailed analysis aids in the identification of various foot pathologies and the development of tailored treatment plans.
At PiedRéseau Boisbriand, our dedicated team includes Dr. Myriam Dion and Dr. Marilou Arsenault, both co-owners and experienced podiatrists. They are supported by Dr. Myriam Grégoire, a skilled podiatrist, and Caroline Turgeon, a nurse assistant in foot care. Together, they ensure that each patient receives the highest standard of care tailored to their specific needs.
