SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.65 and approval by 
the Department of Health and Human Services pursuant to 45 CFR part 11 
and by the General Services Administration, FDA is announcing the 
renewal of the Medical Imaging Drugs Advisory Committee (the 
Committee). The Committee is a discretionary Federal advisory committee 
established to provide advice to the Commissioner. The Committee 
advises the Commissioner or designee in discharging responsibilities as 
they relate to helping to ensure safe and effective drugs for human use 
and, as required, any other product for which FDA has regulatory 
responsibility.
    The Committee reviews and evaluates data concerning the safety and 
effectiveness of marketed and investigational human drug products for 
use in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures using radioactive 
pharmaceuticals and contrast media used in diagnostic radiology and 
makes appropriate recommendations to the Commissioner of Food and 
Drugs.
    The Committee shall consist of 12 voting members including the 
Chair. Members and the Chair are selected by the Commissioner or 
designee from among authorities knowledgeable in the fields of nuclear 
medicine, radiology, epidemiology or statistics, and related 
specialties. Members will be invited to serve for overlapping terms of 
up to 4 years. Almost all non-Federal members of this committee serve 
as Special Government Employees. The core of voting members may include 
one technically qualified member, selected by the Commissioner or 
designee, who is identified with consumer interests and is recommended 
by either a consortium of consumer-oriented organizations or other 
interested persons. In addition to the voting members, the Committee 
may include one non-voting representative member who is identified with 
industry interests. There may also be an alternate industry 
representative.
    Further information regarding the most recent charter and other 
information can be found at https://www.fda.gov/advisory-committees/human-drug-advisory-committees/medical-imaging-drugs-advisory-committee 
or by contacting the Designated Federal Officer (see FOR FURTHER 
INFORMATION CONTACT). In light of the fact that no change has been made 
to the committee name or description of duties, no amendment will be 
made to 21 CFR 14.100.
    This notice is issued under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 
U.S.C. app.). For general information related to FDA advisory 
committees, please visit us at https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm.
