Characteristics of the orthopedic DOC bandT by CRANIAL TECHNOLOGIES INC. (CTI)

The first active orthopedic band available world-wide (1986).

The dynamic head band concept is based upon the application of pressure in the relevant places.

The DOC bandT was the first to receive approval by the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for cranial orthoses in 1998.

In 2005 the FDA first approved the use of DOC bandT for post-surgical cases (craniostenosis).

19 medical centres all over Europe and the United States.

More than 35.000 cases de plagiocephaly and others already treated.
