Giant Step Forward on Artificial Legs
Watch this special segment from CBS Sunday Morning, where Donna and Carol describe how, after receiving osseointegration treatment, their lives have been completely transformed. Where they have previously been confined indoors and condemned to an inactive lifestyle due to their socket prostheses, they are once again able to pursue an active life outdoors; walking, gardening with the grandchildren, and even dancing again.
While this is truly fantastic, don’t miss the part where Professor Rickard Brånemark, the inventor of the OPRA™ Implant System, explores the very near future of osseointegration treatment when the brain will be able to communicate directly with the prosthetic limb; just as it does with a normal arm or leg.
