Parathyroid Scan With Cross-Sectional Images

Rhode Island rates for HCPCS 78071

A small amount of radioactive tracer is injected and pictures are taken as it collects in an overactive parathyroid gland in the neck, which is usually caused by a small benign growth. This version adds cross-sectional images built by a rotating camera, which pinpoint the gland in three dimensions. The result guides the surgeon to the right gland.
