Proposed Requirements for Accreditation Bodies of Mammography Facilities

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is proposing to amend its interim regulations for application procedures for FDA approval as an accreditation body under the Mammography Quality Standards Act of 1992 (the MQSA). FDA is proposing these amendments based on experience gained in administering the interim regulations, advice from the National Mammography Quality Assurance Advisory Committee (NMQAAC), and public comments received in response to the interim regulations. This proposal would also establish new requirements and responsibilities for accreditation bodies. This proposal is the second of five proposed rules published in this issue of the Federal Register regarding MQSA requirements applicable to mammography facilities. These proposed rules are being issued to ensure adequate and consistent evaluation of mammography facilities on a nationwide basis.
