Gain CME credits with European Urology!

Members of the "European Urology - Accredited Continued Medical Education (EU-ACME)" programme can easily gain credits through European Urology, European Urology Supplements and the EAU-EBU Update Series. In each issue of these journals, several articles, including the Case Study of the Month, are accredited with the CME credits. By simply clicking on the provided link: www.eu-acme.org/europeanurology you will be directed to our European Urology CME site where you will find the accredited articles for that month. Accredited articles on the website are available for a month for members to submit answers. Answers will then be published.

Each article is accredited with 1 point and has several multiple choice questions (MCQs) to be answered. 80% of the MCQs must be answered correctly.

The CME credits will be automatically added to the member’s account after the answers have been checked.
