The Board feels that there are certain basic elements of radiation oncology that are meaningful and appropriate for most of those practicing, even in subspecialty positions. The computer-based examination covers all aspects of the field in a rather basic, general manner. CME and SAM credits may be in any area of radiation therapy or oncology or related to other aspects of medicine.
