Study Guides
These study guides are meant to help you prepare for the cognitive examination (Part III) of the Maintenance of Certification (MOC) program. The guides are not all inclusive, but indicate the general topics that will be included in each subspecialty.
The examination will be a multiple-choice test. Occasionally you will not be able to return to a question that you have already answered, so it is best to answer the questions in the order given.
There will be five modules in the examination. All candidates will be tested on noninterpretive skills (patient safety, contrast reactions, radiation safety, statistics, etc). A study guide has been included for this module. The content of the other four modules will be based on the pattern of clinical practice activities that you report to the ABR. For example:
- If you report 25 percentactivity in each of four areas, you will have four different clinical modules.
- If your practice is limited to two or three areas, you will have four modules that inlcude each area you select.
- If, however, your practice is limited to one area, then you will have four modules in that area only.
