MRI of a Leg Joint, Without Contrast

Vermont rates for HCPCS 73721

A detailed imaging exam of a joint in the leg, such as the knee, ankle, or hip, using magnetic fields and radio waves rather than radiation, performed without contrast dye. It gives a clear view of ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and other soft tissue around the joint that an X-ray cannot show. It's commonly used to evaluate joint pain, suspected tears, or other soft-tissue injuries.
