Lower Back Disc Contrast Imaging

Maryland rates for HCPCS 72295

This is a diagnostic imaging study of a disc in the lower back, performed after contrast dye is injected directly into the disc under X-ray guidance. The images and the pattern of any pain reproduced during the injection help determine whether that disc is a source of back pain.
