| | CME Articles The SIR Journal CME Program is a convenient way to earn credit for learning important information about the latest advances in medicine and research. Every month, at least one article in JVIR will have a companion CME exam available online at http://directory.sirweb.org/jvircme. The exam is scored automatically; your CME certificate is available immediately. New CME exams are available monthly, and will remain online for one year. This is a quick way to receive CME credit and increase your learning—a new source of CME is just a few keystrokes away. The Society of Interventional Radiology is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide medical education for physicians. The Society of Interventional Radiology designates this educational activity for a maximum of 1.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
