  • A prosthesis was an artificial device which replaced a body part of a lifeform. The Arctic Archaeology Team scientist Drake once met a Vulcan scientist who had a sophisticated prothetic forearm. According to Drake, his prothesis was nothing compared with the Borg arm his team found in the Arctic Circle. (ENT: "Regeneration") While gathering data and also some devices, Berlinghoff Rasmussen asked Geordi La Forge about the prosthesis he was wearing, the VISOR. (TNG: "A Matter of Time" )

abstract
  • In medicine, a prosthesis is an artificial device that replaces a missing body part lost through trauma, disease, or congenital conditions. Prosthetic amputee rehabilitation is coordinated by an inter-disciplinary team of health care professionals including psychiatrists, orthopedic surgeons, and prosthetists. A prosthetist is a person who measures, designs, fabricates, fits, or services a prosthesis as prescribed by a licensed physician, and who assists in the formulation of the prosthesis prescription for the replacement of external parts of the human body lost due to amputation or congenital deformities or absences.
  • A prosthesis was an artificial device which replaced a body part of a lifeform. The Arctic Archaeology Team scientist Drake once met a Vulcan scientist who had a sophisticated prothetic forearm. According to Drake, his prothesis was nothing compared with the Borg arm his team found in the Arctic Circle. (ENT: "Regeneration") While gathering data and also some devices, Berlinghoff Rasmussen asked Geordi La Forge about the prosthesis he was wearing, the VISOR. (TNG: "A Matter of Time" ) The Borg Hugh asked La Forge what he was doing while studying the components of his prosthesis in the science laboratory in 2368. (TNG: "I Borg" ) Doctor Tolian Soran asked La Forge if he ever considered a prosthesis that would make him look more normal while he kept La Forge as a prisoner. (Star Trek Generations)
