• Patients taking medications known to cause coughing (e.g. ACE inhibitors) should have medication discontinued. If cough persists > 4 weeks, chest CT with contrast (CPT 71260) or without contrast (CPT 71250) is indicated. o A 3 week trial of antihistamine and decongestant treatment should be performed initially.

Angiography is a type of X-ray used to check blood vessels. Blood vessels do not show clearly on a normal X-ray, so a special dye needs to be injected into your blood first. This highlights your blood vessels, allowing your doctor to see any problems. The X-ray images created during angiography are called angiograms.
A coronary angiogram is a procedure that uses X-ray imaging to see your heart's blood vessels. The test is generally done to see if there's a restriction in blood flow going to the heart. Coronary angiograms are part of a general group of procedures known as heart (cardiac) catheterizations.
The CPT® code used for visceral angiogram is 75726. This CPT® code includes the abdominal aortogram or angiogram 75625.

Abdomen CTA is used in the evaluation of the arteries of the abdominal aorta and renal arteries. Pelvis CTA is used in the evaluation of veins and arteries of the pelvis or lower extremities. Abdominal arteries CTA are used in the evaluation of the abdominal aorta and vascular supply to the lower extremities.
Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) of Abdomen and Pelvis using Low Osmolar Contrast. ICD-10-PCS BW211ZZ is a specific/billable code that can be used to indicate a procedure.
Computed tomography angiography (CTA) uses an injection of contrast material into your blood vessels and CT scanning to help diagnose and evaluate blood vessel disease or related conditions, such as aneurysms or blockages. CTA is typically performed in a radiology department or an outpatient imaging center.
