In the near future, optical foot scanners will replace plaster as the primary method of capturing the foot for production of functional orthoses.  We have spent a tremendous amount of time researching scanners over the past several years and have developed criteria which should be used in evaluating any scanner you are considering.  

I have an article published in the August issue of Lower Extremity Review that is essentially a consumer guide designed to help podiatrists evaluate scanners.  You can read the scanner article here.  

ProLab is the podiatric profession's best source for information on scanners.   We will be providing significant resources here on the website over the next months.   If you wish to be informed as more information is added, subscribe to the RSS for this "scanner" blog.   

ProLab clients can contact a medical consultant for scanner information.  Others are welcome to ask questions here.
