CT Scan Of The Arm Or Hand, Before And After Contrast

Rhode Island rates for HCPCS 73202

A CT scanner takes detailed cross-sectional images of an arm or hand, first without any contrast dye and then again after contrast dye is injected into a vein, to better highlight blood vessels, soft tissue, or abnormal areas. Combining both sets of images in one visit gives more information than either set alone. It is used to evaluate things such as tumors, infections, or complex injuries in the arm or hand.
