ORIGINS Back in the 1970s, a group of physicians and scientists from Rennes University Hospital visited a fair focusing on the watchmaking and microtechniques industries in Besançon, in the hope of finding partners to develop tools for a new neurosurgery. Prof. Scarabin and his team were working on SEEG, a new surgical technique to treat drug-resistant epilepsy that had been developed in the 1960s at St-Anne hospital in Paris with Prof. Talairach. The collaboration between the neuroscientists and the precision industry experts blossomed over the years. DIXI took over in 1988. In the 1990s, the industrial production of the SEEG electrodes and implantation tools started. The French company slowly made its way outside of France. Since November 2018, DIXI medical products are FDA approved. For more than 40 years, DIXI medical never ceased to innovate and improve its intracerebral electrodes and implantation accessories, working hand in hand with neurosurgeons and neurologists, and scientists from all around the world.
