Common questions regarding Canadian medical device classification What is an MDEL? Manufacturers of Class I devices in Canada must apply for an MDEL unless they solely import or distribute through a licensed distributor/importer. Importers and distributors who wish to market licensed Class II-IV produc...
Importance of Health Canada's IVD classification system If you're interested in sellingin vitrodiagnostic (IVD) devices in Canada, you must first register and obtain the proper license from Health Canada. As is the case with medical devices, your IVD's classification determines the required licens...

Many people think device classification is determined by the design of the device or the riskiness of the device. That’s what the regulatory textbooks say, but it’s not nearly so simple. What it really comes down to is what yousayyour device will do. In the regulatory vernacular, that...
This method of classification comprises a first classification step (6) of the event of any kind of the first period, and then a second step of the periodic table (8) of the events, identified by the first classification by means of a learning base (9) reinforced by all the events ident...
Firstly, we introduce an adaptive lightweight network modification and an effective training strategy that reduces the demand for computational resources in real-time detection. This approach overcomes the limitations of computer resources, allowing for predictions on low-performance devices with limited ...
Therefore, in this research, we introduce two plant disease detection (PDDNet) models of early fusion (AE) and the lead voting ensemble (LVE) integrated with nine pre-trained convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and fine-tuned by deep feature extraction for efficient plant disease identification ...

To set the stage for this special issue, I classify exoskeletons and orthoses into four categories and provide design examples within each of these. I discuss devices that act in series with a human limb to increase limb length and displacement, and devices that act in parallel with a human...
Accurate and rapid identification of cancer tissues has a crucial impact on medical decisions. Conventional histopathological examinations are resource intensive and time-consuming, requiring 30–45 min per sample to be processed and the presence of skilled pathologists1. A similar need exists in the...
