3-13k. An arthrogram is a series of images of a joint after injection of a contrast medium, usually done by fluoroscopy or MRI. The injection is normally done under a local anesthetic such as Novocain or lidocaine. The radiologist or radiographer performs the study using fluoroscopy or x-ray to guide the placement of the needle into the joint ...
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cardiac MRI, CMR), also known as cardiovascular MRI, is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology used for non-invasive assessment of the function and structure of the cardiovascular system. [2] Conditions in which it is performed include congenital heart disease, cardiomyopathies and valvular heart ...
OPS-301 code. 3-843. [ edit on Wikidata] Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a medical imaging technique. It uses magnetic resonance imaging to visualize the biliary and pancreatic ducts non-invasively. This procedure can be used to determine whether gallstones are lodged in any of the ducts surrounding the gallbladder.
Basis for OPS was the Dutch ICPM-DE, from which the procedure classification OPS-301 according to §301 SGB V was created. Version 1.0 was published in October 1994 and became effective on January 1, 1995. Originally a subset of ICPM, OPS-301 has been expanded by a significant number of national codes since version 2.0 (effective in 2001).
Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is a group of techniques based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to image blood vessels. Magnetic resonance angiography is used to generate images of arteries (and less commonly veins) in order to evaluate them for stenosis (abnormal narrowing), occlusions, aneurysms (vessel wall dilatations, at risk of rupture) or other abnormalities.
92.05. MeSH. D015635 D011875; D015635. OPS-301 code. 3-704, 3-708. [edit on Wikidata] Radionuclide angiographyis an area of nuclear medicinewhich specialises in imaging to show the functionalityof the right and left ventriclesof the heart, thus allowing informed diagnostic intervention in heart failure. It involves use of a radiopharmaceutical ...
OPS-301 code. 3-13d. [edit on Wikidata] Pyelogram (or pyelography or urography) is a form of imaging of the renal pelvis and ureter. [1] Types include: Intravenous pyelogram – In which a contrast solution is introduced through a vein into the circulatory system. Retrograde pyelogram – Any pyelogram in which contrast medium is introduced ...
OPS-301 code. 3-70c. An octreotide scan is a type of SPECT scintigraphy used to find carcinoid, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and to localize sarcoidosis. It is also called somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS). Octreotide, a drug similar to somatostatin, is radiolabeled with indium-111, [1] and is injected into a vein and travels ...
