Brain Nuclear Scan, Limited Views With Blood Flow

Nebraska rates for HCPCS 78601

A nuclear scan of the brain in which a tracer is injected into a vein, the camera first records its rapid arrival through the blood vessels of the head, and a limited set of still pictures is then taken. The flow sequence shows how blood reaches each side of the brain, and the still images show where the tracer collects.
