The STARscanner:

  • Non-invasive scanning replaces the traditional plaster casting process.
  • Scans are safe and take less than two seconds to complete.
  • Software records detailed head shape measurements and calculates craniofacial indices (including volumes, symmetry ratios, circumference, and linear measurements).
  • Measures efficacy of cranial remolding orthosis treatment by documenting outcomes for physicians and parents.
  • Documents effectiveness of physical therapy and repositioning efforts.
  • Produces three-dimensional documentation of pre and post-operative head shape changes.
  • Provides insurance companies with specific measurements, information, and quantitative outcome analysis.

Level Four and Orthomerica are proud to offer the latest technology for treating patients with deformational plagiocephaly and other head shape abnormalities. The STARscanner laser data acquisition system and state -of-the-art software are designed to evaluate head shape data for infants. The STARscanner is an accurate, safe, and fast system for capturing the three dimensional image of a baby’s head shape. The system also produces detailed reports to document head shape changes over time.

The STARscanner is an effective and trusted system, used by leading practitioners for STAR cranial remolding orthosis treatment since 2001. If a STAR cranial remolding orthosis is prescribed, a scan is emailed to Orthomerica Products, Inc. Orthomerica was the first company to receive clearance from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for a scanning system used to capture infant head shape data.
