The list of authorized AI-enabled medical devices keeps growing
The FDA maintains a public list of AI-enabled medical devices that have been authorized for marketing, and it continues to expand across imaging, cardiology, and ophthalmology.
Why it matters
Vendors increasingly describe products as AI-powered. Whether a specific function is an authorized device is a checkable fact, not a matter of opinion.
What it means for your practice
When a vendor claims a clinical AI capability, ask whether that specific function appears on the FDA list and under what clearance. Keep the answer with your vendor file.
