Abstract

Abstract Every year, approximately 3,000 people in Sweden undergo amputation of a body part. The use of a prosthesis can greatly improve the quality of life for these people. To improve the fit and comfort of a prosthesis, a sock is used as an interface between the prosthesis socket and the stump. A three-dimensional (3D) body scanner can be used to take measurements that are used to produce individualized socks that improve fit and comfort. The standardized method for taking measurements with a 3D body scanner often requires a standing position and hence a new scanning method is needed to improve the accessibility for 3D body scanning. This study aimed to create a scanning scenario and an algorithm for scanning amputation stumps for individualizing prosthesis socks for upper-body amputations. Vitronic VITUSSMART LC 3D Body Scanner was used in this study. The results show a seated position with arms slightly away from the body, scanned at 45° as the best. To measure the right upper arm and the left armpit, the best was to scan at a 315° angle. Paired t-tests showed no significant differences compared with the 3D body scanner of traditional manual measurements. The proposed method exhibited good relative reliability and potential to facilitate the customization of prosthetic socks for amputees.

3D身体扫描作为个性化假肢袜的人体测量工具

摘要瑞典每年约有3000人接受截肢手术。假肢的使用可以极大地提高这些人的生活质量。为了提高假体的贴合度和舒适度，在假体窝和残端之间使用袜子作为接口。三维（3D）身体扫描仪可以用来进行测量，用于生产个性化的袜子，以提高贴合度和舒适度。用3D身体扫描仪进行测量的标准化方法通常需要站立位置，因此需要一种新的扫描方法来提高3D身体扫描的可访问性。本研究旨在创建一种扫描场景和算法，用于扫描截肢残端，以个性化上肢截肢假肢袜。本研究采用Vitronic VITUSSMART LC三维人体扫描仪。结果显示，手臂稍微远离身体的坐姿，以45°扫描为最佳。测量右上臂和左腋下，最好是以315°的角度进行扫描。配对t检验显示，与传统手动测量的3D身体扫描仪相比，没有显著差异。所提出的方法显示出良好的相对可靠性和潜力，有助于为截肢者定制假肢袜。
