Image-Guided Placement of Brain Infusion Catheter

Indiana rates for HCPCS 0169T

Using computer-planned targeting and image guidance, one or more fine tubes are passed through a small opening in the skull to a precise spot within the brain. The tubes let medicine be delivered straight into that area instead of relying on it reaching the brain through the bloodstream. The planning and the skull opening are part of the service.
