CPT Knowledgebase - Dec 19, 2017
A physician in a pediatric clinic with its own X-ray equipment, sometimes orders a radiologic examination of the femur (minimum of 2 views) and a radiologic examination of the tibia and fibula (minimum of 2 views) for a non-infant child, whose size is still small enough to enable the femur, tibia and fibula to be captured in one image. Per CPT coding rule, code 73592 should not be reported because the child is not an infant. Similarly, it would not be appropriate to report code 73590 either, as only one image exists of the entire leg for each view. How should this be appropriately reported?
