Case of the Day
Each day a unique and challenging case is available online for meeting participants to submit answers. The correct answer is revealed the following morning. Answers must be submitted by midnight CT on the day the case is available online. Participants who submit the correct answer receive 0.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.
Record of Attendance, Certificates and Earning Credit
RSNA designates this activity for CME Credit. The total number of approved CME Credits can be found in the meeting’s program information. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
The RSNA 2024 Evaluation and Credit site is designed for self-service. All registrants, except for ARRT, can review credit and adjust credit for education sessions attended, complete session evaluations, and print and save credit certificates or records of attendance at any time.
Virtual Access registrants can maintain extended access beyond the week of the live meeting until April 30, 2025, at noon CT, to view sessions and earn additional on-demand credits. After April 30, 2025, no further revisions to transcripts will be allowed; however, attendees can access the credit claiming site through April 30, 2025, to print their CME certificate or Record of Attendance.
This year RSNA has made a change to the ‘Add a Session’ feature on the Evaluation & Credit Site. We understand that not everyone who attends a session in person is able to have their badge scanned to record their attendance. Due to that fact, participants can access the Evaluation & Credit Site and add the sessions they were unable to scan into simply by searching for and adding that session. However, this feature will only be available for up to two weeks after the onsite meeting ends (December 20, 2024).
To have a session added after December 20, you must select a session and play the video recording. That will trigger the system to automatically add the session to your credit record. RSNA 2024 will offer A+/A ARRT credit. To record and obtain A+/A continuing education (CE) credits, all ARRT-registered radiologic technologists and radiologist assistants must follow ARRT guidelines:
• Be present for 50 minutes for every scheduled hour of approved ARRT CE sessions
• Scan in and scan out with their badge from approved ARRT CE sessions after meeting the 50-minute requirement
• Evaluate their 2024 RSNA AART courses online at RSNA.org/MeetingCentral.
Please note that there will be no ARRT credit for attending virtual or on-demand sessions. RSNA 2024 does not offer SelfAssessment Modules (SAMs). Members are encouraged to visit RSNA’s Online Learning Center for opportunities to complete SACME credit throughout the year.
