Proton Beam Radiation Session, Complex

Wisconsin rates for HCPCS 77525

Delivers one session of proton beam radiation treatment, which uses charged particles rather than X-rays so that most of the energy is released at the tumor and less passes through into tissue beyond it. This is the more involved version, used where the beam has to be shaped carefully around nearby structures that must be protected. The charge covers a single treatment session.
