Elbow Arthrogram Imaging

Kentucky rates for HCPCS 73085

This is the imaging portion of an elbow arthrogram, a study in which contrast material is injected into the elbow joint and then a series of images is taken to show the joint's internal structures, including cartilage and ligaments. It can reveal tears or irregularities that are difficult to see on a plain image without contrast. A radiologist reviews the images and provides a written interpretation.
