This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
Researchers are studying how to design better custom insoles for people with rheumatoid arthritis who have foot pain and deformities. They'll use CT scans of your foot to create a digital model and analyze how you walk with and without standard insoles. The goal is to understand which design features reduce pain and improve walking.
Rheumatoid arthritis often causes painful foot problems that are hard to treat with current methods. While custom insoles help many patients, there's no scientific way to optimize them yet. This research aims to use imaging and gait analysis to design insoles tailored specifically to each patient's needs.

You will have a CT scan of your foot to create a detailed 3D image. Researchers will then analyze your walking pattern with and without standard insoles to identify which design features help reduce your pain. The study involves a small group of 10 participants and focuses on gathering information to develop better insole designs in the future.
