2D and 3D digital imaging - PiedRéseau Rosemont
PiedRéseau Rosemont offers a state-of-the-art service in 2D and 3D digital imaging for foot assessment. This innovative technique captures the imprint of the feet using advanced devices, allowing for precise diagnosis and the design of custom-made plantar orthotics. The clinic utilizes a podograph for 2D impressions, which provides detailed images of the foot’s plantar surface, while 3D scanning methods employ sophisticated sensors to accurately reproduce the entire morphology of the foot.
The process of digital imaging is essential for podiatrists at PiedRéseau Rosemont, as it serves both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. By utilizing these advanced scanning techniques, the clinic can quickly identify postural imbalances and other foot-related issues. The 2D scans highlight key characteristics such as foot size, arch type, and weight distribution, while 3D scans offer a comprehensive view of foot structure, enhancing the accuracy of orthotic design.
Digital imaging at PiedRéseau Rosemont is performed using three techniques: load, semi-load, and no-load impressions. This flexibility allows for a thorough analysis of foot behavior under different conditions. The painless procedure results in a virtual model of the feet, which is then analyzed by the podiatrist to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.
The dedicated team at PiedRéseau Rosemont includes Dr. Constance Ladouceur Deslauriers, podiatrist-owner; Dr. Ann-Lyse Sanon, podiatrist; Dr. Salomé Archambault Boisvert, podiatrist; Mustapha Ouadah, bachelor nurse specializing in foot care; Michèle Minomo Mayet, nurse assistant in foot care; Martin Couture, medical assistant; and Imane Harrak, medical assistant.
