Ultrasound Tissue Stiffness Measurement

California rates for HCPCS 0346T

Adds a stiffness measurement to an ultrasound scan. The machine gauges how much the tissue deforms, because scarred or diseased tissue is usually firmer than healthy tissue — for example in the liver — and it is billed in addition to the main scan.
