Master of Science in Prosthetics & Orthotics (MSPO) Program in
the School of Applied Physiology has been awarded a $600,000
research grant to determine the feasibility of creating dynamic
prosthetic-limb sockets through the use of magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) data, computer aided design (CAD) software, finite
element analysis, and instrumented gait analysis. The two-year
grant, titled “Medical Image Generated Dynamic Prosthetic Sockets,”
was funded by the South Carolina Research Authority (SCRA) and
sponsored by the Office of the Secretary of Defense.
