Magnified Examination Of The Vagina

Indiana rates for HCPCS 57420

The lining of the vagina, and the cervix if it is still present, is examined through a colposcope, a lighted magnifying instrument that stays outside the body. A vinegar-like solution is usually applied first so that abnormal areas stand out. It is done to follow up an abnormal screening result or unexplained bleeding, and no tissue is taken during this examination.
