Small Joint Injection With Ultrasound Guidance

New Jersey rates for HCPCS 20604

A clinician uses ultrasound imaging to guide a needle precisely into a small joint or its surrounding bursa, such as a joint in a finger or toe, either to draw out fluid for testing or to inject medication like a steroid. Watching the needle in real time on ultrasound helps ensure accurate placement in these smaller, harder-to-target joints. The imaging guidance and its documentation are included as part of this service.
