Virtual Colonoscopy Without Contrast Dye

New Jersey rates for HCPCS 74261

A CT scanner takes detailed images of the colon, which are processed by computer to create a three-dimensional, fly-through view of the colon's interior, without giving contrast dye into a vein. It is used as an alternative way to look for polyps, masses, or other abnormalities in the colon without passing a scope through it.
