CTSNet classification:  2

 

The American Association for Thoracic Surgery (AATS), through its publication, The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, is instituting a program that will allow subscribers to acquire Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits by taking an examination online that is linked to articles appearing in the Journal. This new service to subscribers will begin with the December issue. The AATS is taking this step after discussions with The American Board of Thoracic Surgery, which has confirmed that it will allow Category 1 credits for such CME activity to count toward recertification. Look for further details in the December issue of the Journal, where the mechanisms for taking the courses and obtaining CME credits are reviewed in greater detail.
