Certified neurointerventional clinician
(CNIC-BC)
The Certified Neurointerventional Clinician (CNIC) board certification ex-amination was developed to recognize the unique and essential contributions of clinicians in neurointerventional radiology. Attainment of CNIC certification demonstrates expertise in stroke competencies, including understanding and mastery of skills used to diagnose stroke, evidence-based management principles for both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, and knowledge of peri-procedural management of stroke or the at risk stroke patient. Upon completing the review course, an examination will be offered in-person or can be scheduled to be taken at a Prometric Test Center near you.
