Patient-Specific Prosthetic Fingers by Remote Collaboration - A Case Study [PDF]
The concealment of amputation through prosthesis usage can shield an amputee from social stigma and help improve the emotional healing process especially at the early stages of hand or finger loss. However, the traditional techniques in prosthesis fabrication defy this as the patients need numerous visits to the clinics for measurements, fitting and ...

Robot milling system integrated design and finite element analysis of custom femoral prostheses [PDF]
The long-term stability of cementless femoral prostheses is primarily affected by aseptic loosening, micromotion, and stress shielding, all of which are related to the force transfer of the prosthesis. These factors can compromise the osseointegration of
