Cone Beam CT

Date: Sep 5, 2019

Question:

I understand that the physician has to state that he/she is the treating physician (this is for Y-90 mapping). For the cone beam CT coding, this is taken from software that creates CT like volumetric images (not a CT machine) and reconstructs and evaluates at a separate 3D workstation. Can we report code 76380 if CT arteriography of hepatic is performed along with 76377 (providing all documentation is documented for the 3D images)?
