Advanced IMACTIS guided CT navigation

Date: Dec 15, 2020

Question:

My doctors are using a new navigation software to guide the needle for cryoablations. He utilized the 3D CT guidance for cryoablation of a renal mass. Can I report code 76377 for this? Would this be 50593, 76377? Or do I add the 77013 also? "Utilizing the 3D CT guidance... Images were transformed to an independent workstation for 3D rendering and image review under concurrent supervision."
