2D and 3D digital imaging - PiedRéseau Montréal – Chirurgie du pied
PiedRéseau Montréal – Chirurgie du pied offers advanced 2D and 3D digital imaging services to enhance the diagnosis and treatment of foot-related conditions. This innovative approach involves capturing the precise imprint of the feet using specialized devices, which is essential for designing custom-made plantar orthotics. The 2D imaging utilizes a podograph, a pressure-sensitive cushion that provides a detailed representation of the foot’s plantar surface. In contrast, the 3D scanning employs a three-dimensional sensor to accurately capture the entire morphology of the foot, allowing for rapid identification of discomfort sources and postural imbalances.
At PiedRéseau Montréal, the process of digital imaging is integral to our clinical practice. The foot digitization techniques, including load, semi-load, and no-load impression methods, facilitate a comprehensive assessment of foot characteristics. This service is particularly beneficial for patients experiencing various plantar disorders, as it enables the creation of highly customized orthotics tailored to individual needs. Our dedicated team of podiatrists, including Dr. William Lee, Dr. Serge Gaudreau, Dr. Jean-Philippe Chamberland, and other skilled professionals, ensures that each patient receives thorough evaluations and appropriate treatments based on the results of the digital imaging.
