Capnolog counts these live for anesthesiology and neurological surgery; other specialties are reference only.
What counts toward a minimum?
- The ACGME tracks key indicator procedures for Neuroendovascular Intervention: the minimums apply to those procedures, not to every case logged.
- Every number is a count in one column, “Completed by the fellow”.
- 9 rows are drawn from a larger row: those cases count toward that row too, never on top of it.
- The ACGME Review Committee that accredits Neuroendovascular Intervention programs sets these requirements.
Where do these numbers come from?

Capnolog is independent of the ACGME. Where a number here and the ACGME's own document disagree, the document is right.
