Strength Evaluation and Modification of a 3D Printed Anterior Ankle Foot Orthoses
Ankle foot orthosis (AFO) is widely used to prevent foot drop and improve walking ability for individuals with cerebral palsy and stroke. However, traditional anterior AFO (TAAFO) could only last within months because the bilateral neck of TAAFO was easy to break. Currently, a 3D-printing technique...
