Today we’re excited to share the digital profile of P&O Group, a California based O&P clinic who utilizes Comb to scan a lot of pediatric AFO patients at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.
Read MoreEach practice operates differently when it comes to processes, tools and patient care. After hundreds of calls we’ve discussed the digital workflow with practitioners all over the world and each one is like a snowflake – unique with almost no two practices using the same stack of technology and tools.

Read MoreDuring the AAOP Virtual Conference in 2020 we asked hundreds of practitioners to give us their take on 3D scanning in the O&P industry. How important is 3D scanning in O&P in 2020? How about the future of O&P? We wanted to know who's scanning, how often, and how important scanning is to the future of the industry. See below for the results!
Read MoreIn the last couple of months the staff at Comb has noticed an increasing number of practitioners combining Comb and Össur Design Studio. Össur was also conducting their own internal testing of Comb and since then has begun recommending Comb as an approved scanning option to their customers. We had the chance to sit down with Aaron Jacobsen, Senior Clinical Manager at Össur, to ask about their experience with our scanner and why Össur recommends using Comb with Design Studio.
Read MoreWe’ve interacted with hundreds of users around the world since our launch in June and we’ve found that about fifty percent (50%) of the industry is currently scanning in O&P. Sometimes the question is: what are the benefits of your scanner over what I’m using to treat patients? But equally as frequent is the question: What are the benefits of scanning in O&P versus scanning in O&P? Or, why should I switch from plaster and casting to scanning and digital fabrication?
Read MoreWe built Comb to work with as many tools as possible within the industry of O&P. Our goal is to be as adoptable and as user friendly as possibly when it comes to the digital workflow, so we put together a quick step by step guide on how to use Comb with OMEGA by WillowWood.
Read MoreTerrell Tate originally looked to Comb O&P to satisfy his need for a portable, affordable and precise patient scanner for his facility in Memphis, TN. Terry’s practice is focused on meeting the individual needs and mobility goals of each patient – which he delivers by providing the latest in prosthetic design and fabrication.
Read MoreThe current global pandemic has kept the majority of the industry at home, not seeing patients and not fabricating orthoses. While a portion of patient care will always have an element that requires hands-on attention, the potential to shift fabrication into the digital workflow has never been more relevant.
Read MoreIt is clear that 3D scanning is no longer stigmatized as “out of reach” and the entire field is ready to explore attainable options to implement the digital workflow.
Read MoreThe O&P industry has been introduced to scanning technology slowly over the course of the last few years and 3D shape capture is an increasingly popular topic of discussion among O&P professionals. Today a number of prosthetic 3D scanner options are available to a practice that compete with a traditional casting technique – but scanning is still not industry standard.
Read MoreThe Comb App brings the latest in prosthetics scanning technology to your iPhone X or newer. The scanning app was designed to give clinicians the ability to create accurate scans of their patients for downloading and sending an .obj or .stl file to modification or fabrication. Whether you are completely new to 3D scanning or you’ve used other devices in the past, the intuitive design and step by step tutorial makes the ease of scanning available to the entire orthotics and prosthetics industry
Read MoreThe latest in 3D scanning for orthotics and prosthetics is arriving this winter. Recent developments in cell phone technology have made the development of the Comb App possible, making industry-leading scanning technology accessible right on your iPhone. While the Comb App is in its final stages of development, its accessibility is poised to change the way much of the O&P industry approaches custom fabrication.
