CDI Leading Innovation...Again

Whether you are talking about ground-breaking intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring techniques, or state-of-the-art computer networking in the medical setting, CDI has a history of leading the way. CDI was the first company to create equipment and develop techniques for true multi-modality monitoring of the human nervous system in the operating room setting. CDI has led in the development of true real-time, remote monitoring of neurophysiological data over networks that reach around the world. CDI is building on that legacy, and is pushing its innovation into related fields.

The latest example of CDI's innovation is the Volume Conduction Medical Data Communication System. This project is being funded by the U.S. Army's Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program in both Phase I and Phase II projects.

The Volume Conduction Medical Data Communication System addresses the process and problems of communicating with small implantable devices. Common examples of these devices are cardiac pacemakers, implantable defibrillators, and retinal prosthetics. This technology will have many far-reaching advantages in civilian and military use.

CDI has previously had a Phase I and Phase II Small Business Innovation Research grant to develop an automatic multi-channel EEG electrode placement system from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Strokes.
