Eye Ultrasound, Quantitative A-Scan Only

South Dakota rates for HCPCS 76511

This is an ultrasound test of the eye that records a wave-pattern reading from internal eye tissue rather than a picture, and is most often used to help characterize a growth or mass inside the eye. A small probe is placed gently on or near the surface of the eye, and the resulting echo pattern helps distinguish between different types of tissue.
