Precision X-Ray Motion Study Of The Spine

South Dakota rates for HCPCS 0348T

Two X-ray images taken from different angles at the same moment are combined by computer to measure movement in the spine far more precisely than a standard X-ray allows. Small reference markers previously placed in the bone let the system calculate exactly how a vertebra or an implant has shifted. It is used to follow how securely a spinal implant or fusion is holding.
