ARTICLE SUMMARY:
Welcome to the October 3 edition of Pathways Picks, MTS Market Pathways’ weekly roundup of the most important global medtech regulatory, reimbursement, and policy news. This week: a wide-reaching cybersecurity alert, and harmonization effort; an EU check-in; metal implant scrutiny; dates to remember; and more.

That news leads our Pathways’ Picks—a rundown of medtech policy items and key dates that should be on your radar this week.
