Credits
The American Society of Nuclear Cardiology designates this activity for 30 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ and medical knowledge Maintenance of Certification (MOC) points. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
Maintenance of Certification
Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the participant to earn up to 30 medical knowledge Maintenance of Certification (MOC) points in the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) MOC program. Participants will earn MOC points equivalent to the amount of CME credits claimed for the activity. It is the CME activity provider’s responsibility to submit participant completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABIM MOC credits.
IAC Accreditation Requirements
With ASNC’s 2025 Nuclear Cardiology Board Exam Prep Course, you can earn more than the 15 hours of nuclear cardiology CME you need to meet your laboratory’s IAC accreditation requirements.
