Is it just me or does anyone else wonder why cast modification is not the
credentialed practitioners interpretation of the evaluation and creation of
the negative model and therefore his or her responsibility? How can someone
who hasn't seen the patient be expected to modify the cast?
I am sure I have had techs do modifications from time to time but usually on
copies of existing systems or off the shelf designs. Maybe I have lost pace
with our current professional practices.
