Lung Ventilation and Perfusion w/ SPECT/CT
Date: Apr 30, 2024
Question:
Hello, can we please have CPT guidance on the following exam:
We are doing planar imaging for the ventilation AND perfusion and doing an ADDITIONAL SPECT/CT.
We are using 2 tracers, and 3 imaging sets, Vent planar, Perfusion planar and Perfusion SPECT/CT.
- Should we be reporting the lung vent and perfusion (78582) separate with the SPECT/CT (78830) in this scenario?
