Development of an Evaluation System for Magnetic Resonance Imaging Based Three-Dimensional Modeling of a Transfemoral Prosthetic Socket Using Finite Elements

Recent technologies have suggested the utilization of three-dimensional (3D) printingtechnology to enhance the fabrication accuracy of prosthetics. Accordingly, simulations are used toobtain precise parameters for subject-specified prosthetic socket. This study proposes an evaluationsystem to meas...
