Inaugural BCIS ICI Accreditation Exam

Inaugural BCIS ICI Accreditation Exam

Registration is now closed

The British Cardiovascular Intervention Society (BCIS) is proud to announce the launch of the BCIS ICI Accreditation — the first formal assessment of its kind dedicated exclusively to Intracoronary Imaging (ICI).

International clinical guidelines increasingly emphasise the pivotal role of Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in contemporary PCI practice. This prestigious new accreditation establishes a nationally recognised benchmark, enabling consultants, trainees, and AHPs to formally demonstrate their specialist knowledge and interpretative expertise in these essential imaging modalities.

The BCIS ICI Accreditation is delivered as an image-based, 1-hour online MCQ examination, sat at a predetermined date and time. Successful candidates will gain objective assurance of their ability to interpret complex intracoronary imaging data to optimise procedural outcomes — reassurance valued by colleagues, healthcare organisations, and interview panels alike.

Beyond strengthening your professional CV, this accreditation aims to promote a consistent, high standard of knowledge and clinical assurance in intracoronary imaging across the UK.


Inaugural sitting
Thursday 5 March 2026, 19:00–20:00 hours
(Registration is now closed)

Fees
BCIS members: £50
Non-BCIS members: £200

Please note that the examination must be taken on a laptop or desktop computer with a strong, reliable internet connection.

Candidates will be notified of their result immediately after completion. Certificates will be available upon successful completion of the examination. Those who do not pass will be able to retake the examination at the next scheduled sitting.

There are no eligibility restrictions.
