Zusammenfassung:A system of multiple scoliosis treatment braces is custom fitted for a torso of a patient and organized in a sequential series, with each of the braces varying from a previous brace in the series by at least one shape characteristic. The sequential series of braces includes an initial treatment brace with an initial configuration that conforms to an initial shape of the torso, a final treatment brace with a final configuration that approximates a desired shape of the torso, and at least one intermediate treatment brace with an intermediate configuration that approximates a torso shape between the initial configuration and the final configuration. The initial configuration, the intermediate configuration and the final configuration may be determined, at least in part, by a single digital profile of the torso of the patient.
