California rates for HCPCS 61737

Destroys abnormal tissue inside the brain by passing a thin laser fiber through a small opening in the skull and heating the target from within. Scanning during the treatment shows the surgeon in real time how far the heat is spreading. This version covers treatment that has to reach more than one target or approach a difficult target along more than one path.
