SmartSoc Digital Scanning
What SmartSoc Digital Scanning Involves
SmartSoc uses a soft fabric cap and a handheld scanner to capture head shape when a lighter-touch approach works better. It is quick, quiet, portable, and lets us scan wherever the family is — including in your living room.
Who Needs This
- Babies who do more comfortably with a soft cap than a scanner booth
- Families being seen at home or at an outside appointment
- Post-op babies needing a gentle capture near an incision
- Newborns and smaller infants
- Babies with lots of hair, which the cap smooths for accuracy
- Anyone needing a fast rescan mid-treatment
How Treatment Works
- 01
Soft cap
A stretchy fabric cap goes on and smooths the hair for an accurate surface.
- 02
Handheld scan
We move the scanner slowly around the head while you hold your baby.
- 03
Digital model
The capture becomes a precise 3D model within moments.
- 04
Review together
We walk through the shape and what it means before you leave.
- 05
Fabrication
The model goes to the fabricator for a helmet made to that exact geometry.
- 06
Follow-up scans
We rescan through treatment to document correction.
What Affects Your Cost
- Scanning is included in the cost of helmet treatment
- No charge for scanning during a free consultation
- Insurance covers the orthosis rather than the imaging
- Rescans during treatment carry no additional charge
- Home and travel visits include scanning at no extra cost
- Additional helmets require an additional scan each

Which one will we use?
Whichever suits your baby and where we are seeing you. Both are accurate.
Does the cap bother babies?
Rarely. It is soft and comes off in under a minute.
Can you scan at our house?
Yes — the SmartSoc system is fully portable.
Is there radiation?
None. It is optical scanning only.
How long does it take?
The whole scan, cap and all, takes just a few minutes.
