碩士 === 國立臺灣科技大學 === 醫學工程研究所 === 106 === Scoliosis is a spine variant of the disease, the current object for children and adolescents the most common, mainly bone growth and development in children and adolescents stages. There are many reasons for the occurrence of scoliosis, it is no definite reason. Brace is the general choice of scoliosis treatment (exercise, brace, surgery) that there are many other brace theories to correct scoliosis on how to effectively correct scoliosis. The purpose of paper is to develop design SOP(Standard Operation Procedure) for a digital measurement system and a brace of scoliosis with 3D printing, so that the use of correction of the scoliosis is more perfect by measurement, take and repair mold, and manufacturing. In this study, correct clinical disadvantages for scoliosis correction, that with lower limbs problems come scoliosis, wear uncomfortable and connect 3D printing technology by brace, exactly correct scoliosis, according to different patients to build a customized measurement methods and scoliosis scaffolding design. In this study though Finite Element Analysis, improvement and used 3D printing to check the possible for brace design to support measurement system to plan simulation and evaluation for overall feasibility. According to the clinical procedures of planning, in addition, prototypes and revises the designs of brace, the achievement has feasibility at present. And then verify that the design of this thesis is really more comfortable, breathable, lightweight than the Scoliosis brace while using via the result of the finite element analysis and 3D printing.
