Inside the whitepaper

AI software in the medical context operates simultaneously at the intersection of MDR, IVDR and the AI Act. The whitepaper structures the key questions and translates them into concrete action perspectives.

1

When is AI software a medical device?

Regulatory classification under MDR and IVDR: intended purpose as the decisive criterion and typical grey areas in practice.

2

High-risk classification under the AI Act

Which AI systems count as high-risk and why MDR/IVDR classification is the decisive trigger (Art. 6(1) AI Act).

3

Requirements for high-risk AI (Art. 8-15)

From risk management and data governance to transparency, human oversight and cybersecurity, what the AI Act concretely demands.

4

Roadmap for manufacturers

Short-term measures and medium-term steps: portfolio analysis, QMS extension and early involvement of notified bodies.

5

Current deadlines and shifts

The stretched timeline creates no classic buffer but a phase of parallel conformity, including the movements around the Digital Omnibus package.
