Measuring Actual Blood Flow to the Heart Muscle

New Jersey rates for HCPCS 78434

An extra analysis performed as part of a heart scan that measures the actual quantity of blood reaching the heart muscle, both at rest and after a medicine is given to make the heart work harder. Comparing the two figures shows whether flow rises normally under stress, which can reveal narrowing that affects the whole heart evenly. It is billed in addition to the main heart scan.
