DITTA/IMDRF joint workshop - Optimizing Standards for Regulatory Use
The IMDRF Standards Working Group and the Global Diagnostic Imaging, Healthcare IT and Radiation Therapy Trade Association (DITTA) held a joint workshop on topics related to the final document: 
Optimizing Standards for Regulatory Use (IMDRF/Standards WG/N51 FINAL:2018).
The Workshop was held on 18 March 2019. Standards help ensure that devices are safe and perform as intended and, as such, can be used for regulatory compliance. Internationally recognized standards facilitate regulatory convergence at the global level.
IMDRF recently adopted the guidance document Optimizing Standards for Regulatory Use. This workshop explored how regulators and standards developers will use the recommendations of the guidance at a practical level. In addition, the next steps for the IMDRF and its activities on standardization are discussed. Information will also be shared on specific standardization activities in IEC and ISO.
