If you are applying to taking the APCA 100 Case Pathway for RPVI Credentialing, Navix will provide a letter of completion and will maintain your case log. As the sponsoring organization, we ensure the criteria required for the APCA 100 Case Pathway for RPVI Credentialing are met.
VASCULAR ULTRASOUND INTERPRETATION PRECEPTORSHIP
NAVIX’s Vascular Ultrasound Interpretation Preceptorship focuses on the interpretation of vascular studies and case analysis of carotid duplex ultrasound, transcranial Doppler, peripheral arterial physiologic testing, peripheral arterial duplex ultrasound, venous duplex ultrasound and visceral vascular duplex ultrasound. Participants gain interpretation experience for up to 250 vascular ultrasound examinations presenting with diverse pathologies seen in a dedicated noninvasive vascular diagnostic laboratory.
Many fellowships programs and group practices have chosen NAVIX’s Vascular Ultrasound Interpretation Preceptorship to provide their physicians with the didactic instruction, hands-on interpretation, and preparation they need for reading vascular cases and obtaining their RPVI credential.
All of NAVIX’s Vascular Ultrasound Interpretation Preceptorship Programs provide the required 100 cases to meet APCA’s simulated case requirements.

Our Satisfied Clients
I did want to take the time to specifically credit Dr. Rodriguez-Wong for doing such an amazing job in teaching in this course. She is a wonderful asset to your program as she is very knowledgeable on all aspects of the subject matter and takes the time to provide excellent didactic lectures. I will definitely recommend this course to other fellows and colleagues that are interested in learning vascular ultrasound and taking the RPVI boards in the future.
Tish is a spectacular teacher and has great integrity that she combines with her passion for the art and science of ultrasound technology. Taking a course from her felt like taking a golf lesson from Jack Nicklaus.
I really appreciated the clarity of the instructor. The didactic portion was excellent and I would definitely recommend this course.
