What is an in-vitro diagnostic?

  1. Type of medical device

  2. A test performed inside the human body

  3. A test performed outside the human body

  4. A regulatory body

The correct answer is: A test performed outside the human body

An in-vitro diagnostic is a test that is performed outside of the human body. Option A is incorrect because while an in-vitro diagnostic may include a type of medical device, not all medical devices are considered in-vitro diagnostics. Option B is incorrect because a test performed inside the human body would be considered an in-vivo diagnostic. Option D is incorrect because a regulatory body is an organization responsible for creating and enforcing regulations, not a type of diagnostic. Thus, option C is the most accurate and relevant choice.
