FDA is proposing to amend and repeal parts of the radiological health regulations on recommendations for radiation protection during medical procedures, certain records and reporting for electronic products, and performance standards for diagnostic x-ray systems and their major components, laser products, and ultrasonic therapy products. A *Federal Register* 4/1 [notice](https://s3.amazonaws.com/public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2019-05822.pdf?ref=fdaweb.com) says the changes are being proposed “to clarify and update the regulations to reduce regulatory requirements that are outdated and duplicate other means to better protect the public health against harmful exposure to radiation emitting products and medical devices.”
