3-D reconstruction and MRA

Date: Sep 5, 2012

Question:

Dr. Z: I am aware that in order to bill CTA codes, 3D reconstruction would have to be performed and documented. 2D reconstruction is insufficent. Does this same rule apply to MRAs? I have not seen any instructions/directives that indicate 3D is required, but this is now being questioned by some coders. Thank you very much for your assistance.
