After intravenous administration of 5.1 millicuries Tc-99m DTPA, flow imaging of the kidneys was performed for approximately 30 minutes. Flow imaging demonstrated markedly reduced flow to the kidneys bilaterally. What CPT® coding is reported?

78701

Explanation:

The nuclear imaging examination is done to accompany the blood as it transported to the kidneys in order to reveal whatsoever blockage and to assess the level of which the kidneys perform filtration. The case study does not pinpoint to the capability of the kidneys tubes and ducts.

In the CPT® Index view for Nuclear Medicine/Diagnostic/Vascular Flow leads us to code range 78701-78709. Since mainly vascular flow was undertaken, we can infer that code 78701 is the right code to report.
