Digital health is the broadest term covering all intersections of technology and health. Digital medicine is a subset referring to evidence-based digital tools that measure or intervene in health with clinically validated data. Digital therapeutics (DTx) is a further subset — software-based interventions that deliver evidence-based therapeutic outcomes, typically regulated as medical devices and requiring clinical evidence from RCTs.
