75625 and 75726

Date: Jan 5, 2018

Question:

I understand code 75726 is with or without flush aortogram. But would there be a situation where code 75625 can also be reported? Example: "An aortogram was performed to delineate the anatomy, as pre-operative CT scan was not adequate in defining the extent of spill-over disease into the celiac and SMA." Then a catheter was advanced into the SMA and imaging was done." Can we report both codes 75625 and 75726, or would only code 75726 would be allowed?
