VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - January 12, 2016) - LED Medical Diagnostics ("LED Medical" or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE: LMD)(OTCQX: LEDIF)(FRANKFURT: LME) subsidiary LED Dental is pleased to announce that it has received confirmation from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that it has adequately addressed the agency's concerns outlined in a Warning Letter sent to the company dated May 12, 2014. This confirmation brings to a conclusion the negotiations between LED Dental and the FDA regarding certain marketing verbiage on the LED Dental website pertaining to the VELscope Vx system. LED Dental completed the requested changes to the website in December 2015 and received notification shortly thereafter that the changes were acceptable.
Dr. David Morgan, chief technology officer of LED Dental, remarked, "Although we felt justified in the language that we originally utilized, we also understand the agency's position and, in the end analysis, do not feel that the FDA's requested changes diminish in any way the compelling value proposition of the VELscope Vx communicated on our website."
