SAMs Available
The SAMs listed below are currently available through websites. The individual SAM hyperlinks have been provided by the SAM sponsoring organization.
If you have questions or concerns locating a specific offering, please contact the appropriate sponsoring organization. Other SAMs are available through meetings and conferences. Please check with organizations such as AAPM, ACMP, and RSNA prior to annual meetings for availability.
Note: Radiologic Physicists must take at least 20% of their SAM credits (four SAMs over a 10-year MOC cycle) in SAMs pertaining to each of their certification areas (Diagnostic Physics, Therapeutic Physics, and/or Nuclear Medicine Physics).
Physics Non-interpretive Skills SAMs may be used to satisfy this requirement if the topic is relevant to the area of certification.
