Abstract:
A method of manufacturing an interface for a body part using an additive manufacturing process is described. The method obtaining a digital model of the body part and modifying the digital model, and spacing a plurality of compression areas around a long axis of the digital model to create a compression pattern. The compression pattern is sized and dimensioned to compress soft tissue of the body part against the skeletal structure such that motion of the skeletal structure towards a wall of the interface is reduced.
