Online Self-Assessment Modules (SAMs)

The Radiosurgery Society® provides a variety of online options for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s) with a self-assessment component. These SAMs are qualified by the American Board of Radiology (ABR) in meeting criteria for self-assessment toward the purpose of fulfilling requirements in the ABR Maintenance of Certification (MOC) Program.

If you are a Radiosurgery Society Member, access to SAMs is included with your  membership. Non-RSS Members can purchase SAMs for $25 each.

Please Note: Our SAM site is provided by a third-party vendor. Before you can access the modules, you will first need to create an account with them.

Physicists: Please note that AMA Category 1 CE offerings count towards ABR-MOC credits. The Radiosurgery Society does not offer CAMPEP credit for our Self-Assessment Modules (SAMs).

For more information, please refer to the ABR information guide found here.
