I heard of a neat system that one of the manufacturers has for people on their second or third replacement, when the Charnley rasp (the worst-designed broaching tool ever) can no longer make a suitable socket. A truck turns up outside the hospital, the surgeon takes a cast of the socket in the femur, and then in the truck a laser scans the cast and machines an implant to exactly the right shape. -- atp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
