RANZCR INR Grandparenting Pathway Now Open
The RANZCR INR Grandparenting Pathway is now open to eligible practising Interventional Neuroradiologists.
This represents an important milestone in the recognition and development of Interventional Neuroradiology as a clinical specialty. ANZSNR strongly supports this pathway and the work undertaken with RANZCR to establish a framework for the recognition of Interventional Neuroradiology as a specialist discipline.
We encourage eligible practising Interventional Neuroradiologists to consider taking up this opportunity to become an Endorsed Interventional Neuroradiologist, supporting the broader goal of achieving formal recognition as a Specialist Interventional Neuroradiologist in accordance with the RANZCR work plan.
The pathway will also play an important role in establishing a framework for the training and recognition of future Interventional Neuroradiologists.
Further information, including eligibility requirements and details of the application process, is available here:
