Educational Plan: The diplomate should develop a specific educational plan which relates his or her practice profile, local needs assessment, and self-assessment to a personal agenda for the acquisition of CME, self-assessment modules, and practice quality improvement activities during the MOC cycle.

CME:

• All must be in Category 1
• 70% or more must be in diagnostic radiology or its subspecialties
• 30% may be in clinically-related general areas or relevant general topics such as risk assessment, ethics, processes of continuous quality improvement, methodologies of measurement outcomes, statistics, etc.
• Self-assessment Module ( SAM) CME may count toward the CME requirement, as well as fulfilling the SAM requirement.
• For the purpose of ABR-MOC, time-limited certificate holders are expected to start acquiring CME and SAMs in 2007. In cycles beginning in 2007 and later, there will be no prorating of requirements, as the MOC program will be fully implemented.
