Wheelchair, Seating, Orthotic and Prosthetic Design
Dundee is one of the very few cities in the UK to have its wheelchair, seating, orthotic and prosthetic services delivered in-house at the Tayside Rehabilitation Technology Services at Ninewells Hospital and Medical School. The association of these services with our university facilities has allowed for a close working relationship in teaching, research and clinical services using the latest high-tech biomechanical facilities at IMAR. Many projects are run on a yearly basis to optimise delivery as well as cost-effectiveness of products.
