Abstract
A method of ordering a custom prosthetic or orthopedic device includes manually moving a portable scanner about an anatomical part of a patient to generate three-dimensional information representative of the anatomical part. The portable scanner is coupled to a mobile device routinely carried by a user. The method involves obtaining order information associated with the patient on the mobile device and transmitting an order with the mobile device to an intended recipient. The order contains at least a portion of the three-dimensional information and at least a portion of the order information.
