STARSCANNER LASER SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY.”
Positional plagiocephaly appears as unusual flattening of the head, and exhibits as a variety of different head shapes which may indicate a condition requiring further medical observation or treatment. It is also seen in patients diagnosed with torticollis. The Starband from Orthomerica is a custom cranial remolding orthosis used to treat deformational plagiocephaly and other head shape deformities in infants 3-20 months of age. Tens of thousands of infants have been successfully treated with the Starband Cranial Remolding Orthosis, since its introduction. Treatment generally takes 3-6 months, but varies on the patient’s age and severity of cranial asymmetry. The Starscanner system allows medical professionals to document, compare and overlay infant head shape data before, during and after treatment of the cranial deformity. For the first time, treatment progress can be evaluated with printed reports for referring physicians, research studies, insurance companies and caregivers. Starscans, which take under two seconds, replace the uncomfortable and lengthy casting procedure, adding science to the treatment for the first time. Cranial Remolding Center operates one of only 40 Starscanners in the world. Any inquiries or questions will be answered by a friendly, professional, knowledgeable staff at 1-800-685-9116.
