Abstract
A computer-implemented method for modeling an orthopedic cast, including scanning an injured limb to extract raw body data; determining, from the extracted raw body data, a target portion data of the injured limb, the determined data representing a fine cast surface for the orthopedic cast; patterning the fine cast surface to form a ventilation structure and a blank area thereon; forming an opening gap on the blank area for assembling and disassembling the orthopedic cast; and offsetting the cast surface in parallel to thicken the orthopedic cast.
