Medical Device Data Systems, Medical Image Storage Devices, and Medical Image Communication Devices; Draft Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff; Availability

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the availability of the draft guidance entitled "Medical Device Data Systems, Medical Image Storage Devices, and Medical Image Communication Devices." FDA is issuing this document to inform manufacturers, distributors, and other entities that the Agency does not intend to enforce compliance with the regulatory controls that apply to Medical Device Data Systems (MDDS), medical image storage devices, and medical image communications devices, due to the low risk they pose to patients and the importance they play in advancing digital health. In this document, FDA is also proposing changes to its guidance entitled "Mobile Medical Applications," issued on September 25, 2013, to conform to the proposed policy discussed in this draft guidance document. This draft guidance is not final nor is it in effect at this time.
