What is CAD? • Computer-Aided Design • CAD is the use of electronic tools to design products on a computer screen instead of by hand • CAD has numerous benefits for O&P…
No Messy Plaster • Plaster is messy and takes a long time to dry • CAD eliminates the use of plaster entirely!
High Degree of Accuracy • Accuracy is how close a measured value is to the actual value • CAD is much more accurate than hand-casting • OMEGA Scanner is accurate to +/- 0. 5 mm
Exceptionally Fast and Easy for the Patient With plaster: • • Patient must hold one position for several minutes Patient must wait for plaster to dry CAD completely eliminates these issues, increasing comfort and convenience for the patient
Full Range of Modification Tools • CAD’s electronic tools allow the clinician to make any modification that is possible with plaster… but much more precisely, and in a fraction of the time
Extremely Repeatable • A result is repeatable when, each time the clinician measures the same patient using the same equipment, the measurements are the same • CAD is much more repeatable than hand-casting
