is being presented by Helen Colquhoun, CEO, of Pleiad Inc. and airs on Thursday, September 8th, 2011. For more details or to register, please visit our site at www.fxconferences.com

The regulations relating to the testing of new in-vitro diagnostic tests are not always clear. There are various regulations that require compliance: the In-Vitro Diagnostics Directive in the EU, ISO standards, and the US regulations. There is the added complexity of CLIA waivers in the US for those IVDs designed to be used outside the laboratory setting.

In this audio conference, the speaker will describe and review the regulations that govern the testing and approval of new in-vitro diagnostics in the EU and USA. Performance testing and CLIA waiver studies will be included. The aim is to clarify the requirements and assist in the design of any clinical testing that may be required.
