2D and 3D digital imaging - PiedRéseau Val-d’Or
The 2D and 3D digital imaging service at PiedRéseau Val-d’Or plays a crucial role in the management of foot-related conditions. This advanced technique involves capturing precise imprints of the feet using specialized devices, enabling accurate diagnoses and the design of custom-made plantar orthotics. The 2D imaging utilizes a podograph to create a detailed map of the foot’s plantar surface, while the 3D scanning method employs a three-dimensional sensor to replicate the entire morphology of the foot. These methods allow for a rapid understanding of discomfort sources and facilitate the creation of tailored orthotics to address specific needs.
