Contrast medium was injected and films taken by serialography showing the aortoiliac inflow vessels are widely patent. The bilateral common femorals appear normal. What CPT® codes are reported for the professional component? Selected Answer: 36200, 75630-26 Correct Answer: 36200, 75630-26  Question 2 0 out of 0.6 points 82-year-old female with a right leg medial malleolar non-healing ulcer elected to proceed with peripheral angiography. Using a RIM catheter, from a left femoral artery access, the contralateral right iliac artery was accessed and the catheter was gradually advanced to the right common femoral artery. The right lower extremity angiography was performed with both C02 injection and subsequently localized pictures of femoral distal bypass grafts were performed using contrast injections. This revealed the right superficial femoral artery is 100% occluded at its origin. Decision for angioplasty was made and intervention was performed through this area with a 7 mm x 20 mm balloon inflated up to 7 atmospheres. The gradual inflation resulted in enlarging the artery to a more normal flow of blood. What CPT® codes is/are reported? Selected Answer: 37220, 75710- 26-59 Correct Answer: 37224, 75710- 26-59 Response Feedback : The second order selective catheterization (36246) for the diagnostic angiography will not be reported as an additional code, because the catheterization was performed through the same access site as the interventional angioplasty, code 37224. The diagnostic angiography is reported with 75710-26-59. Because the decision to perform the angioplasty was made after reading the films for the diagnostic angiography, modifier 59 is appended to show that it is not bundled with code 37224.This information is found in the Vascular Procedures Guidelines of the Radiology Section in the CPT® codebook. In the CPT® Index, look for Angioplasty/Femoral Artery/Intraoperative direction you to 37224. Look for Angiography/Leg Artery directing you to 73706, 75635, 75710-75716.  Question 3 0 out of 0.6 points 65-year-old female has a 2.5 cm by 2.0 cm non-small cell lung cancer in her right upper lobe. The tumor is inoperable due to severe respiratory conditions. She will be receiving stereotactic body radiation therapy under image guidance.
